From the mid 2050's to the early 2070's the most popular form of music in the 11-24 demographic was Static and its cousin White Noise. Music corps were delighted, never before did they have to do so little work to create a hit. Numerous bands were formed to exploit the meme including Active Noise Cancellation, Aliasing Filter and Bi-Linear Design.
The Static craze died out in the 2070's thanks to a counter-meme created by an independant memetic engineer and Elvis Presley fan Ryu O'Connor, despite numerous lawsuits on behalf of the enterainment megacorps, however was revived by an interview with the AI Kilburn in 2105 in which e listed er favorite music:
InterviewBot: So Kilburn what tunes do you crunch numbers to?
Kilburn: Well I'm quite a fan of last centuries rock bands, U2, They Might Be Giants, Bowie and Tom Waits not to metion classics such as Bach's Toccata and Fugue. More recent, well I enjoy looking for patterns in Aliasing Filter's last MP9 "Random Electrical Discharges". Nothing too radical...
The AI movement hysteria was enough to kickstart the meme again, and for much of the interplanetary period static was enjoyed today by post SI:1 sapients, alienated adolescents and AI cults.
