Apparently new artist don't even know what a melody is and drum machines suck


l'm not a fan of new country however why does every song sound the same? And Apparently real drumming is a dying art as drum machines rule the roost. Nobody knows how to write a melody anymore even if i didn't like the style of music i could respect a well written melody well not anymore.How long before music will be 100% phased out. Are we next? This generation doesn't even know what the word audiophile means.When i used to open the audio magazines back in the 1970's as a teenager the pages came alive and everybody was enthusiastic about the sound of real music and how it made us feel and when you got concert tickets to your favorite band and showed up at school the next day wearing the concert tee,you instantly became cool.l feel sorry for those generations who did not get to experience real living and happiness what's that? O.k no we did not have computers or cell phones or 500 cable T.V channels and we didn't need them because we were to busy living. and if i wanted to play video games i hit the arcade with my friends and we laughed and had a good time,Does anybody remember good times. l wouldn't trade being a teenager again for the memories of a life spent living which is something this generation will sadly never know my friends.

Back in the late 1960's, "underground" radio broadcasting appeared on the FM dial, offering music lovers an alternative to Top 40 AM radio. College radio is now a source of good radio programming; in Portland Oregon there are good Classical and Jazz stations.

YouTube is another source of information about quality new music being recorded and released. You can't expect to find it on TV or mainstream radio, any more than we could on AM radio in 1968.

I have no idea what most people are judging the " no musician or good music" by.
I hardly have enough free time in a day to even start to work through all the great new music that is available.
Try a streaming service like Spotify or Qobuz.
You might just be shocked at how much great music by great musicians is still being produced.
+1 Uberwaltz.
Now if I could only become independently wealthy so I could give up the day job and spend more time listening.  
Sam here and the people who own the record companies also own the radio stations and the billboard charts and if you got real talent you have no chance of getting played all they want is lifeless music about sex drugs killing  that's all folks game over and no time left for a reset
