Is Old Music Killing New Music?

Young people inherited an hell pass on by impotent consumers who are now old...

We are responsible for the world around us especially after 40 years old, not teens....

Some people awake in Canada just now, and some alien power just push war measures on us....Then some mature people can awake and change this incoming hell in something else....

The most important analysis of Totalitarian global state about the way they are put in place was by Hannah Arendt and the mechanism described by her was : The incremental banality of day by day new small measures which appear tomorrow the new normal.....like a frog unconscious of the slowly boiling waters in the pan, freedom is eroded in all aspects of life: money, democracy, health, working conditions etc...

It is all around the world now this "new normality"....The "banality of evil"...

Mature people can change the world for the young who will go on now with them as leaders ....Not the reverse....In canada the war measures were deployed against working adults not against teen hippies....

This apply to education and music industry....

Music tastes are like any other tastes acquired tastes by education or lack of, by environment pressure, and by control of the media by corporate powers...

Thinking that our taste as adults are free is childish.... We all are the sum of the events in which we go through in our own personal history...

Only crocodiles think their taste is rightful and eternal...

I found Archie Bunker to be a sad, pathetic but funny character on TV. In real life, such ignoramus behavior is just something I find pathetic

@hilde45, This may come as a shock to you but Archie Bunker was a caricature, someone to be laughed at. The WWII generation did more to spread peace, freedom and prosperity to more other people than any other generation or country in the history of the world.

Today’s generation, and I include you in that category, only whines that they’re not being spoonfed to their liking, and we are just beginning to see the results of that attitude in music and life in general. Keep whining and see what keeps happening

I think that Alexander the Great did a better job to give peace to the world and education than US after world war 2...Think about the last 70 years of Us politic... 😁😊 Who was the victor after 1990 and what this victor made of his victory? Insane wars with insane politic...

For the generation problem i think that hilde is right...

We the booming generation are the one who created this world today not the young .... And the only whining people are old people saying that they were better than the younger one today not seeing the mess we created ouselves by being passive consumers at the expanse of the world itself...

Who created this world around us? Each one of us in the rich countries participate the older we are the more we are responsible...

Today’s generation, and I include you in that category, only whines that they’re not being spoonfed to their liking, and we are just beginning to see the results of that attitude in music and life in general. Keep whining and see what keeps happening

And accusing some generation of a problem which comes more from an inherited systematic totalitarian order globally imposed are childish observations anyway....

A clue: read about Rockfeller foundations education politic and medical politic HUGE impact to understand something, and quit blaming the young....

I don't think that "new music" is being killed by old music.  It is being killed by its lack of music.  If old music is involved at all, it was not a difficult task to dump what is being passed on to us as "new music."
