> but srsly, don't you feel music is just becoming a pasteurized smear of the 'same' ?
Yes, but only the 'popular' music that's forced on me at every opportunity. It's a great big smear that bleeds in and through itself unless it's just one big scab with slightly different colours in slightly different areas.
The music I choose to listen to, both old and modern, both the new to me and also the familiar, is widely varying. I feel like I have ADD when it comes to musical taste. In creating a 'playlist for right now' I'll get bored of a song that's up next because I've scrolled on to a different artist and already started playing their songs in my head and want to listen to them NOW instead of the song I choose three minutes ago. World music, rock, jazz, blues, electronic, psychedelic, I love music crossing all these boundaries and want to fit them all in.
As such, I truly don't understand the acceptance, by seemingly most of society, of the bland sameness (smear) of the 'top 40'. But it's human laziness and 'better things to do'.
'They' obviously don't feel it in their souls like I do, like we do. And I pity them what they're missing.
