New Scenes That We're Completely Out of Touch With Coming to a High School Near You

Myspace have attempted to predict the acts, genres and scenes which they believe will be big this year by analysing what their users have been up to. The social networking site has trawled through facts and figures from its network coming up with a list of what they think will be hot in 2008.

The site’s study, Myspace08, has highlighted Toystep/Joystick Jungle, Bassline, Tape Music, Acousmatic, IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) and Screamo as genres set to be most popular this year.

The survey also suggests that "new ravers" and "new romantics" are mixing to create a new scene of Super Super Kids, while fans of grime and indie are apparently turning into Grindies.

Dressing as twins with your friends is also another trend that's going to be big, dubbing it "Double Dressers".

Acts predicted to make it big:
1. Partyshank
2. Peggy Sue And The Pirates
3. Riuven
4. Naz T Da Younger
5. Tape Deck
6. Conan and Mockisans
7. Ebony Bones
8. Joe Lean And The Jing Jang Jong
9. Dead Disco
10. Make Me A Model

Super Super Kids? Grindies? Double Dressers? Suddenly I feel like I'm 62 years old and trying to understand my grandkids way of life.


The original OG,
Josh
