so you're telling me to find independent artists w/ no promotion or marketing or product for that matter
like local stars like me, but less than me cause they dont even have website or any other medium other than them just performing out and about...
...
all industries are failing, a new day has come

music is addictive.
i find it disconcerting to ride with someone who is constantly checking different radio stations because they just HAVE to listen to something.
as for a divergence, i recommend audio books, the unabbrigded kind.

I've just been given a copy of Rough Trade's 30th anniversary CD.. Released in September I think. A track for each year, and there's some fucking great stuff on there from people I've never heard of... spanning 30 years. I want to seek out most of it.
"James Luther Dickinson"... "Soundsystem"... Brilliant.

"so you're telling me to find independent artists w/ no promotion or marketing or product for that matter"
well, yes, yes I am.
but well, they obviously will need "product"
in any case - hate this "its all crap, i give up" mentality. Its like not seeing any more movies cos the blockbusters suck.

I'm not commenting on the state of the music industry--I think there's more good and varied stuff available than ever in the history of mankind--but on the effect of constantly playing it while I work, in the car, etc.

fact:
hiphop is the #1 music in this country, [might as well say global]
and it is now industry standard, to find someone who is already making money / has following / got rotation on so many stations / has the most soundscan points...
ect.
the aandr's that used to go grab someone w/ talent dont exist, they do a totally different job, ie 'hey johnny, i got so and so out here in the midwest and he moved this many mixtapes' - and it goes on for every other industry
i listen to michael jackson, prince, and i listened to stevies new album and made an effort to download it. as i did prince and michael, yet i can relate to those two easier than stevie, even tho making good music for him is involuntary...

105.3 which is a clear channel station in PA. play all the good music that i can listen to in the car ... sad to say i didnt find a station like that in CO. but they do have the standard 'jazz' station which is also good
-
to me, there is no new good, as in a market, there are only selective artists who dont always maintain the longevity, due to industry standards...
they so much into money they cant figure out how to sell music anymore...
i be damned if i buy another peice of media ... i mean i'm broke so buying anything is almost out the question...
.
anyway
my opinion is just that,
but on the real, i dont listen or watch anything...
i stopped downloadin movies for some time, cause its hard to find good one's...
anyway
i dont hate the fact that its nothin out there, it just confirms what i'm doin moreso
one.

there is so much beautiful music and film out there i think i'm going to puke...on all the jaded idgits who think it all sucks, open your god damn eyes.
- traut0
khilled, speaks the truth. im often overwhelmed with all the amazing film + music out there that i say fuck it i cant keep up and take a break and grab my stanley kubrick collection and my favorite mixes and lock myself inside the house and veg out but then i wake up and realize with a little effort and talking to people you can always hear about a film thats amazing that you havent seen or a song or musician that you need to hear. whether or not there new or just newly found it doesnt matter.
