Why is modern pop music today so terrible?

I thank God I knew a great songwriter who introduced me to J.S. Bach when I was twenty-four. For the "richest", deepest music, I turn to him, with increasing frequency and consistently as I have gotten older. One has to listen to him last in the day, as he is a hard act to follow!

I imagine if he were alive today, JSB would be deep into EDM.

You have a broken imagination .

Surprisingly, I always liked Bach. Puts me to sleep easily, though. There were others in his time, however, don't remember the names. I heard their music too, Bach was better, to my mind.
