Electronic is a broad umbrella genre defined by the primary use of electronically generated or electronically processed sound. It encompasses music made with synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, computers, and studio/tape techniques, as well as electroacoustic manipulation of recorded or synthetic sources. The genre ranges from academic and experimental traditions to popular and dance-oriented forms. While its sonic palette is rooted in electricity and circuitry, its aesthetics span minimal and textural explorations, structured song forms, and beat-driven club permutations. Electronic emphasizes sound design, timbre, and studio-as-instrument practices as much as melody and harmony.

Pop is a broad, hook-driven style of popular music designed for wide appeal. It emphasizes memorable melodies, concise song structures, polished vocals, and production intended for radio, charts, and mass media. While pop continually absorbs elements from other styles, its core remains singable choruses, accessible harmonies, and rhythmic clarity. Typical forms include verse–pre-chorus–chorus, frequent use of bridges and middle-eights, and ear-catching intros and outros. Pop is not defined by a single instrumentation. It flexibly incorporates acoustic and electric instruments, drum machines, synthesizers, and increasingly digital production techniques, always in service of the song and the hook.

Pop ghazal is a light-classical offshoot of the South Asian ghazal tradition that adopts the concise song forms, instrumentation, and production aesthetics of pop music. It retains the poetic architecture of the ghazal—couplet-based verses (sher), end-rhyme (qaafiya), and refrain (radif)—while delivering memorable hooks, streamlined melodies, and radio-friendly arrangements. Typical accompaniments blend harmonium, acoustic guitar, electric piano, strings, and flute or saxophone with tabla/dholak and soft drum machines, often in Keherwa (4/4) or Dadra (6/8) grooves. Lyrically, pop ghazal centers on romance, longing, and introspection in Urdu and Hindi (and sometimes Punjabi), while melodic contours borrow accessible phrases from ragas like Yaman, Khamaj, and Bhairavi, smoothed into pop harmonies. The result is an intimate, emotive ballad aesthetic that is both classically rooted and widely approachable.

Bollywood is the popular film-music tradition associated with Hindi-language cinema from Mumbai, India. It blends raga-based melodies and Hindustani vocalism with Western orchestration, jazz/big-band legacies, pop hooks, disco/funk grooves, rock energy, and contemporary electronic production. Songs are typically designed for on-screen performance and storytelling, featuring lush arrangements, memorable refrains, and emotive playback singing. A common formal scheme is the mukhda (catchy refrain) and antara (stanza/verse) structure, often with instrumental preludes, interludes, and dance breaks. Because it serves narrative and spectacle, Bollywood music ranges widely in mood—from romantic ballads and devotional pieces to high-energy dance numbers—and has continuously absorbed global influences while remaining rooted in Indian melodic and rhythmic aesthetics.
