And the music, as far as a type of music, it's still pretty viable.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think music will thrive where it wants to.
To me, there's two kinds of music these days. There's ephemeral music, and there's music that has lasting power and depth.
There's no way that music could ever go down the tubes. I can't imagine a civilization without music. When you realize today that music is such a part of people's lives. And will always be, really.
It really is, to see that this kind of music is still so popular.
But in the end, music is ultimately an aural art, pure and simple.
Technology has made it much easier to make and manipulate music. Studio-driven, machine-driven music does not always transcend into being a good live act. Many current acts are great live, but many cannot cut it live. The music is not organic.
There's only one type of music and that's good music, no matter what genre it is.
Music is wonderful. Especially if there's some kind of content to it.
Music has generally involved a lot of awkward contraptions, a certain amount of heavy lifting.
Music isn't necessarily made to last, and there's always been disposable music.
