The ∗IS∗ a lot of amazing and adventurous music being done! You just don't
get to hear much of it. Blame it on the Sorry State of the Mainstream Music
Industry.
These completely inartistic suit wearing geeks are:
1. Totally profit driven
2. Only sign artists that they think has sure-fire hit power
3. All artists are ripped off anyway, the suits get most of the money
4. No imagination. Just listen to the damn radio
5. Aren't going to take a chance on anything really inventive and
"different" (See #4)
6. Don't give a crap about music anyway. Only money matters.
To find what you're looking for, you've got to look at the indie labels and
indie radio stations. You'll have to wade through the schlock to find it.
Maybe a "bad" artist is working harder to promote his material! Maybe that's
why he's "bad" - not enough time being spent developing his talents (or lack
thereof). There's some amazing stuff being sold by
http://www.soleilmoon.comfor example. There's other labels like this that would rather keep their
artistic integrity than let the "Bottom Line is all that Matters" mentality
of the corporate giants!
Revolt is needed! Down with the Corporate Giants!
