| Why does most new music suck? Excellent post, Emailists; I agree with all your points. | |
| Why does most new music suck? ****The dilemma artists are faced with today is finding good original melody. There's simply none left****Ah, not so; at all. The well is bottomless. The problem is not the potential of music; a great melody is not "found". The problem is the "art... | |
| Why does most new music suck? Rok, do it! You only live once. And if it is anything less than "good", I'll take it off your hands. After a small discount, of course ;-) | |
