Let me first say that I am not a fan of modern dance-pop and electro-pop (Ke$ha, Britney Spears) for a variety of reasons. But I am wondering if any fans of the genre would be able to enlighten me as to its tropes and conventions, and possibly explain how they create meaning and effect in the music as a whole. Discussion about specific songs, instrumentation, lyrics, rhythm, tonality, etc. are all welcome.
I am currently working on an academic project in which I am exploring genres of music that I hold in low regard. By the time I finish, I'm hoping that I will be able to analyze a dance-pop piece with a broadened scope of appreciation for the music. From what I've seen, Head-Fi is one of the most intelligent and helpful online communities around and I'm hoping that someone here will be able to give me some pointers.
Thanks!
