Latin Pop
Latin pop is mainstream pop music performed primarily in Spanish (and sometimes Portuguese) that blends contemporary pop songwriting with Latin American and Iberian rhythms, harmonies, and vocal stylings. It typically features verse–pre-chorus–chorus forms, catchy hooks, polished production, and a balance between rhythmic drive and romantic lyric themes. Classic Latin pop often leans on bolero- and ballad-informed melodies and soft-rock textures, while modern Latin pop readily incorporates dance-pop, electronic, and urbano elements (such as reggaeton-influenced grooves) without losing its sing-along pop core.

Pop
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.

Latin Indie
Latin indie is a broad umbrella for Spanish- and Portuguese-language independent music scenes across Latin America and the Latin diaspora. It blends the DIY ethos and sonic palettes of global indie rock and indie pop with regional rhythms, folk traditions, and electronic textures. While stylistically diverse—from jangly guitars and dreamy synth-pop to folktronica and cumbia-inflected grooves—Latin indie is united by an independent production mindset, intimate and poetic lyricism, and a taste for warm, reverb-soaked aesthetics. Artists commonly release through local indie labels or self-release, and they build audiences via blogs, small venues, and festival circuits before reaching wider streaming platforms. The genre’s identity crystallized in the mid-to-late 2000s, as scenes in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, and the U.S. Latinx community cross-pollinated online, eventually becoming a defining contemporary movement in Spanish-language alternative music.
