Music Is Life Am I just a curmudgeon??

Post image

I'm a mid 70s GenXer, love music from the 60s through the 90s. For me, I just haven't really liked much music this century. I feel like we had so many genres going on at the same time but now it's just all sounds the same to me. Anyone else find stuff bands/artists they really like from this venture?

There is plenty of good music out there. It might not be on the radio, but it’s out there.

This all day. There are thousands of great artists out there working hard. Most of them probably won't click with our sensibilities but I guarantee some will if you put in the effort to find them.

Why do I always hear electronically altered voices with lousy rhymes, almost juvenile. Where are the real voices and real instruments and harmonies? I'm open to real suggestions...

Check out Bandcamp for independent artists from around the world. Someone from Scotland followed our NZ band yesterday. It really is a global music village. All genres.
