Cyberpunk was a SHOCK.

Steampunk became a BOMB EXPLOSION!

But the “best of the best” of steampunk, Paul Di Filippo, found THAT NOT ENOUGH.

And then he created... RIBOFUNK.

Read: “ribo” comes from ribonucleides, and “funk” comes from music!

So. A world in which the leading sciences are BIOLOGY and GENETICS.

A world in which clones are a long-passed stage of civilization.

Here the bodyguard carries animal genes, the police are hunting for gene dealers, VERY STRANGE half-humans live in the sea... and everything else is still ROCK AND ROLL!
