As EBM began to decline in popularity, a more modern version of the genre began to emerge in its place in the mid/late '90s. It features a danceable sound with heavy Synthpop influences, and has become popular mainly in clubs throughout the world, particularly in Europe. Futurepop retains the apocalyptic worldview of EBM and Industrial (a more distant predecessor) but generally adds the more melodic elements of Synthpop and some club-friendly Trance influences. The progenitors of the genre are usually considered to be VNV Nation, Apoptygma Berzerk, and Covenant.
