Abstract Music, in all its diverse forms, transcends strict boundaries and communicates a universal language that unites people across cultures, histories, and personal experiences. This journey is a vibrant fusion of sounds, rhythms, and traditions, blending elements from various musical genres and cultures worldwide. Beginning in the early 20th century, compositions like Scott Joplin’s “Maple Leaf Rag” reshaped the landscape of classical music. Indie musicians such as the Buena Vista Social Club further expanded these limits, merging Latin classics with innovative new styles of musical production. Moving into the 21st century, artists like Depeche Mode continue to astonish listeners with electronic beats that capture the essence of contemporary digital music.
