In music I enjoy exploration. Exploring myself within music; exploring musical realms: sound design, tonality, and engineering; and exploring physical and meta-physical places as well. Music takes on a really interesting physical and non-physical existence in our world and deserves exploration just like our oceans and space. I still love pop music, dancing music, groove music, classical music, and occasionally appreciate things in all genres. But exploration is so much more important! I imagine it being selfish to take something that has been done millions of times before you and uninterestingly rip it off for a new audience. Our musical siren doesn't experience anything new from that, she isn't interested, it's similar to going to an ex. You don't want that contact or those feelings/experiences anymore than you want to see that ex.So why do people continually make music that is just more of the same?
We could talk about pop and dance music, but those are somewhat givens, of course with exceptions.
But I wanna look at indie riff-rock. Are you kidding me, this is the same exact thing and song without variation from artist. These bands and their albums are getting positive reviews also. WHAT?!? WHY!?!
It's as if people reviewing them and listening to them haven't heard the same album years before it, explore a different genre for the sake of our muse!!
Blend a different genre into what you're currently doing, experiment with different instruments, change your approach, listen to different types of music, and read. These things are all integral parts of writing and playing music why not actually do them?
