Can anyone direct me to a source for modern pop styles? It seems BIAB has everything except this. Thanks.

First, you need to tell us what BiaB Pak you have, what year, and what additional paks you have purchased?

If I search the style Picker for Everything Pop, I get 2,450 suggested results.

If I search for Modern Pop, I get 257 results, and Light Pop gives me 2,069 results.

What sort of Modern Pop?

At least one can say that BIAB has no pop-up blocker ... Read some where that one of the internet search tags for posted music that works well is Indiepop. Tried that one?

I'm not sure I follow. I thought that the O/P was looking for modern pop styles in BiaB itself? No?

I'm using BIAB 2019. When I searched it for modern pop I saw only a few results.

I'm looking for styles that emulate songs one might hear on the pop charts.

Bob: I'll check out that link.

Thanks to all.

It also depends on the BiaB Pak you have.
- Pro (which despite its name is the most basic version) has 144 Real Styles
- MegaPak has 300 Real Styles
- The top of the line paks include 6,700+ Styles in total

My BIAB shows 6762 styles.

But I still don't see all that much modern pop. If I type "modern pop" into the stylepicker's search box, I show 747 results. But most of these are actually from a variety of other styles: for example, rock, country, jazz, folk, disco, or dubstep, or are very retro, not modern pop. Nothing against these other styles, they're just not what I happen to be looking for at the moment.

Music and categorizing it is some thing.
f.i. a Q for the BIAB style experts: where would you place this song stylewise, and what BIAB style comes close?:
