why does every melody feel nostalgic lately

Okay, real talk, is it just me or does literally every new song low-key give off nostalgic vibes lately? Like, I'll hear something fresh and my brain is like 'wait, have I heard this before?' or 'this feels like my childhood but it literally just dropped.' It's low-key making me feel old, but also kinda comfy? #MusicTalk #GenZProblems #NostalgiaCore #TimeFlies #RetroVibes

FRRRR. I thought it was just me! Especially with all the 2000s/early 2010s sampling and interpolations. Like, producers are just raiding our childhoods for inspo πŸ˜‚

Dude, 100%. It's like we're hitting that age where everything we grew up with is getting recycled. The algorithm doesn't help either, keeps pushing stuff that *feels* familiar. My 'discover weekly' is basically a time machine.
