Pop kreatif (English: creative pop) is an Indonesian offshoot and subgenre of Indo pop that emerged in the late 20th century as a fusion of Indonesian music and contemporary global influences such as funk, jazz, disco, new wave and soft rock. Rooted in urban culture, the genre is often characterized by its smooth melodies, upbeat rhythms, and nostalgic themes. Initially, the genre had been associated and reflective to the rapid modernization and economic growth of Indonesia during the 1980s and early 1990s. By the late 2010s, pop kreatif gained popularity among Indonesian youth and has seen a resurgence within the Indonesian music scene.
