its not that we are out of touch, its just that we are old, have heard it all before, and are bored.

Oh you are forming a post punk band? who you ripping off? the fall or joy division? yawnnnnnnnnnn

and mainstream music got destroyed by the poptimist mind virus, music got whittled down to pop sluts and pop rap. its a literal nightmare world with no genre diversity.

This.
I still find the occasional new release I enjoy but it's usually by an artist/band I already follow.

/mu/ was pretty trendy at one point but that was close to a decade ago

People keep saying this but have no examples at all. And yeah there's tons of new releases that are not mentioned here and are way more interesting than white girl pop garbage or tranny fore or whatever but none of it is all that worthwhile at at all. Yeah if you wanna think youre cool go-ahead but like the first comment said, none of it is impressive to anyone but some dumb ass that never listened to any older music before. Its boring and not engaging. People forgot how to express real emotions and not just echoy nonsense trying to sound like the 80s again

If you were "trendy", you sure as hell wouldn't waste time trying to convince random posters on a mongolian flyfishing forum.

Chasing trends is gay, and the monoculture/subculture distinction is dead now anyway. On the internet you can find any gaggle of geese who share your love for cavemancore or ukelele yodeling black metal and just hang with them finding releases and sharing them with each other.
The people still interested in the Sabrina Carpenters or whatever is put in your face next are celebrityfags and coomers and eternal watercooler-conversation-havers whose interest in music is very very tertiary. No need to seek their approval, you're already mogging them.

this is my perspective
pretty much the last time any relevant music was posted about was when vaporwave was cool in the early mid 10s

/mu/, as any other board with a culture, was "trendy", creating personalities like fantano, or popularizing stuff like pitchfork and rym, because people came there and wanted to contribute to it.
Imagine you trying to make a conversation lively: "have you heard about X?", "where should I start with Y?", "I've got Z feeling, any music that matches the vibe?".
This is how you create a board culture. The more you talk about a certain X, Y and Z, the more you have a distinct taste.
Normies who came here think that that distinct taste is what makes you a /mu/tant, a /lit/ter, a /tv/ fan (maybe, I don't go there).
They think if you are not listening to /mu/core right now for the rest of your life, you are not a /mu/tant.
They don't know that /mu/core is supposed to be anything that shouldn't be recommended when you ask about a certain genre, because that's supposed what you have already consumed beforehand.
But this didn't last very long, since normies don't know that.
So a book like Infinite Jest was new and interesting in 2010, but normalfaggots thought that spamming about it because "it's what a /lit/bro reads (at least that's what I've been told when I first came to the website)", so now on /lit/ people don't even know what litfic is, but they will glaze DFW anyway.
Similarly, what happened with fantano: normalfaggots care about his opinion because he is supposed to be /mu/core, even if everyone know that he is catering to the tiktok mob, i.e. a crowd that is even more normie than them. But they still cling to his old status, because otherwise they will need to form their own identity, and that is fucking scary, because you will have to be a lonely motherfucker for quite some time. And if at 15 you are trying to fit in (so newfags will keep practically killing the board by conforming to the board culture), while at 30 you are too old to change anything in your life (and you try to cope by saying that there nothing new or good under the sun).

I love a lot of new music and keep up with it constantly, but I couldn't tell you anything about "up coming trendy" things. Guess I don't look at things that way.
