Where did this come from?!?!

I went to get a haircut this morning and on the radio-music-machine they had tuned a station playing that new stuff the kids are listening to today. I was jaw-droppingly surprised at it - in a very positive way. The music is overproduced, AutoTuned, and all - but somewhere in there it turned into stuff I really like. The 1980s are crawling back in, stylistically, with heavy synthesizer and in some cases that characteristic octavey bass. Mash that up with hip-hop and R & B and (most unexpectedly to me) a lot of very gospel-sounding changes, and wow.

Who knew?

At least, who over 30?

It's corporate fluff love songs and all, but I think it sounds really cool. I have no idea who any of the performers are, so I guess I have some happy homework to do.
