The convergence of indie and dance culture dates back to the turn of the ’90s, when psychedelically minded rock acts like Primal Scream and The Stone Roses first succumbed to the hedonistic lure of rave. Since then, the two camps have enjoyed a long-standing friends-with-benefits relationship: As post-punky bands like The Rapture and Franz Ferdinand made a beeline for the dance floor in the early 2000s, electronic outfits like Daft Punk retooled their disco-schooled sound into something that was, well, harder, better, faster, stronger. By the 2010s, the fusion of big beats and raw energy was reshaping the sound of modern pop, as the line between arty auteurs (Grimes, M83) and Top 40 queens (Robyn, Charli XCX) all but disintegrated.
