High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Popular music of the United Kingdom in the 2000s continued to expand and develop new sub-genres and fusions. While talent show contestants were one of the major forces in pop music, British soul maintained and even extended its high profile with figures like Joss Stone and Amy Winehouse, while a new group of singer/songwriters lead by Adele achieved international success. New forms of dance music emerged, including grime and dubstep. There was also a revival of garage rock and post punk, which when mixed with electronic music produced new rave. In August 2011 the Sony DADC warehouse was torched during the 2011 England Riots resulting in the loss of hundreds of thousands of CDs belonging to indie labels.
