Muzak is a term for the generic-sounding, vaguely calming background music formerly haunting elevators and grocery stores before the former ditched speakers and the latter switched to the top 40 charts with no one noticing the difference.
I have never felt so old as when I (an elder millennial) referred to lo-fi beats to study and relax to as zoomer elevator music, and a zoomer overhearing me said they'd never heard music in an elevator.
I feel you. I'm realizing that I'm getting closer and closer to the age my parents were when they were telling me about black and white televisions and realizing there's adults who can buy alcohol that don't remember what it'a like to not have an internet connection or a cell phone.
Remember when they had antennas? That was so cool
