Psychedelic pop is a type of music genre [1]. It emerged as a subgenre of pop music infused with elements inspired by the psychedelic experience, often incorporating unconventional song structures, studio effects, and lyrical themes related to altered states of consciousness. The genre gained prominence in the mid-to-late 1960s, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom, as artists experimented with new sounds and recording techniques. Its sonic characteristics include reverb-drenched guitars, harpsichords, sitars, and vocal harmonies that evoke a dreamlike or surreal atmosphere. Psychedelic pop bridged the accessibility of pop melodies with the experimental spirit of psychedelic rock, appealing to both mainstream and countercultural audiences during its peak years.
