I love discovering " new to me " music!!! Before I started streaming, most of my new music came from seeking out World Music fm radio shows.......afew years ago, my teenage daughter staring watching Kpop on her computer....well to stay connected to her, I joined in....and found a few gems among the pop.....in fact I discovered a style of new Korean music, which is a modernization, of ancient Korean Shamanistic songs....check out Lee Nal Chi ....( start with " The Tiger is Coming" video on youtube)
Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older?
Hello all,
Sometimes I find myself wondering why there is so little newer music in my library. Now, before you start in with rants about "New music is terrible!", I found this rather interesting article on the topic. (SFW)
With the maturing of streaming as a music delivery platform, and the ease of being able to surf new artists and music, it might be time to break my old listening habits and find some newer artists.
Happy listening.

@kingsleuy Nice post!
I guess because old music or even new music that sounds like older music fits into an impression created by the music that shaped us as we grew up and matured. "new" stuff is going to be different; thus, we’re going to reject it as alien and different. That’s human nature. Having said that, I love my Tidal "New Releases" folder as well as exploring the new releases in each genre each week. Some I like some I despise; most are forgettable. But there’re always gems to find. |
I decided when I started listening to talking heads and Elvis Costello and turned away from my old faves, led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, yes etc, they I would always look for new music. And I have kept that promise to myself. Got tickets for Taylor Swift. Pudding cool, a website that will trash your listening habits, asks me if I've ever heard any music before 2019. That's not completely true as Pink Floyd stays in my regular rotation.
