Alternative rockDance-popPop

Roxette is a Alternative rock and Dance-pop act. Their catalogue also touches Pop and Rock. Their sound grew out of Desmond Child, Gyllene Tider, Helena Josefsson, Dr. Feelgood and Heart. Those roots explain a lot about how Roxette arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Per Gessle, Belinda Carlisle, Kim Wilde, Richard Marx and Ace of Base, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into One, RedOne, Savage Garden, All That She Wants and Clouseau, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 42 connections around Roxette, reaching back through Desmond Child and forward to One.
