In Europe they call it Eurodisco, Disco, in Asia we call it New Wave or Techno.  All in all they are under the same category European Dance or Eurodance  Some of the groups are still around. Most either retired, died, or produce music for new genre artists.

Remember Robert miles from '96? His track "children" or others like it.  The style he used was called dream dance/trance in the early and late 90s.  Now it's all commercial, synth roll and base only (yuck).  With music software available these days, everyone's an artists it seems. The only time you'll hear more of these music is when you go clubbing.  Notice the dance rhythm and base today is changing as well, it's reverting back to 70s discoish style.  Britney Spears "Hold it against me" has some Eurodance feel, so, my guess is it's still popular but not as much as it used to. 

Hardcore Rock (garage bands), Aternative, R&B, and Rap is still dominant.

Not really.  I only listen to songs with 'artistic' lyrics .  There are no artistic songs anymore.  Is there a current raper with 'artistic' lyrics?
