There is no such thing as regular music. Music is so diverse that it hard to say that it is just regular. That's why we have different genres and catagories. In my opinion, alternative muic is mostly made by white people. Now don't get it twisted. I am not racist. In fact, I love Kelly Clarkson, Green Day, Ashely Simpson, etc. But just like alternative, there's urban music which is made by blacks. So, I think overall all music in some ways are alike but for the most part it is different as well. I hope that answers your question!

Alternative rock (also called alternative music or simply alternative; known primarily in the UK as indie) is a genre of rock music that emerged in the 1980s and became widely popular in the 1990s. The term "alternative" was coined in the 1980s to describe punk rock-inspired bands on independent record labels that did not fit into the mainstream genres of the time.[1] As a musical genre, alternative rock consists of various subgenres that have emerged from the indie music scene since the 1980s, such as grunge, Britpop, gothic rock, and indie pop. These genres are unified by their collective debt to the style and/or ethos of punk, which laid the groundwork for alternative music in the 1970s.[2]

Though the genre is considered to be rock, some of its subgenres are influenced by folk music, reggae, electronic music and jazz among other genres. At times alternative rock has been used as a catch-all phrase for rock music from underground artists in the 1980s, all music descended from punk rock (including punk itself, New Wave, and post-punk), and, ironically, for rock music in general in the 1990s and 2000s.

There is no such thing as regular or special music. Alternative music is close to rock but in a different way. People used it sometimes if they would like to be different and to be more mature in their age.
