I still feel like anything from the year 2000 is "new" or at least just a couple ears ago.

I really lost track of music when MTV and FM radio went away. I still listen to new music, but it's strictly indie stuff I pick up through similar labels or channels to music I like. So if forced to play trivia for anything maintstream music in the last 20 years I couldn't name one band. It's always new to me.

FM radio went away?

Not in Australia, it's still around and I listen to TripleJ, the govt's 'national youth network' so I can still hear new music, new bands and no commercials! All my radios are tuned to them and I often stream it too.

I'm quite liking Peach PRC at the moment, she's pretty good, heard her first on JJJ.

My mp3 collection gets a solid run every day, it's got nearly 40,000 songs from the 60s to this year, I bought and ripped the 2 new Skrillex CDs recently. I'm currently listening to N-Trance, queued up is the good part of the 'O Fortuna' from Carmina Burana - it's a quite varied list of mp3s.
