Can someone elaborate or clearly define alternative music???
Just go the this website. alternative music: The term “alternative”—like the broadly equivalent terms “underground” and “independent”—is used across a wide range of popular genres, including rock, rap, adult contemporary, dance, folk, and country music. It is used to describe music that challenges the status quo; anticommercial, and antimainstream, it is thought by its supporters to be local as opposed to corporate, homemade as opposed to mass-produced, and genuine as opposed to artificial. The music industry’s use of “alternative” is bound up with the need of the music business to identify and exploit new trends, styles, and audiences.
