Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Very cool!
I did disagree with a friend when they said there’s one specific type of “cyberpunk” music and I still have mixed feelings about the label
Yeah, "cyberpunk music" definitely has different meanings for different people since music is so subjective. To some people it's the slow jazz of Vangelis in Blade Runner and to others it's more electronic. I don't think there's a wrong answer but I personally prefer the more electronic stuff.
Some people may even reduce it down to just this 😆
