Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older?
Hello all,
Sometimes I find myself wondering why there is so little newer music in my library. Now, before you start in with rants about "New music is terrible!", I found this rather interesting article on the topic. (SFW)
With the maturing of streaming as a music delivery platform, and the ease of being able to surf new artists and music, it might be time to break my old listening habits and find some newer artists.
Happy listening.
@kingsleuy Nice post!
I guess because old music or even new music that sounds like older music fits into an impression created by the music that shaped us as we grew up and matured. "new" stuff is going to be different; thus, we’re going to reject it as alien and different. That’s human nature. Having said that, I love my Tidal "New Releases" folder as well as exploring the new releases in each genre each week. Some I like some I despise; most are forgettable. But there’re always gems to find. |
@normb +1 on WTMD. I found a lot of new stuff there when I lived in the area. The same with 103.1 before they changed formats. |
