It's all downhill from here... I'm going to agree with whoever - the rock band format is going nowhere revelatory, stylistically. Still, there'll doubtlessly be interesting style combinations and plenty of pleasing chord progressions to keep me listening to that side of Western music.
Any creation has to be derived from something, otherwise you, rock fan, could claim that there was nothing original before the Beatles, or whatever. Please. Music doesn't just appear out of thin air, that would be ***magic***. The last piece of music I heard that recalled nothing else was Skream's 'Midnight Request Line' a couple of years ago. Even this music from another planet turned out to be an amalgam of UK underground influences from the previous decade. Depsite the moaning of 'what about the harmonics, meters etc' I feel that the seemingly endless parameters of digital production will offer up the coveted 'new sounds' of the future, whether you like it or not. Like the last Panda Bear album? Try and make that work with live musicians! |
