Re: Collaboration in music (response to RandomLFO)



the public has a complex ear and can appreciate the additional complexity of music which has evolved from the balance or amalgamation of efforts, talents, and egos. No matter how talented someone is- think about how much we appreciate the sound of collaboration.
 
huh?  do what?  come again? 
 
the masses are cattle.  period.  95% of the people you see at wal-mart don't REALLY give a hoot about what's playing on the radio.  funny, but "sonic wallpaper" is a phrase i use as well because it's so accurate.  it's background music for their lives.  those folks and those who really listen exist in very different sonic worlds. 
 
if anything, the "public" would retreat from complexity.  it alienates, for the most part.  in case you haven't turned on your radio lately, the folks like their music as dumb as they can get it.  i heard a rap song the other day that was just a stupid beat and some guy babbling.  it's sad when you strip something down and all that's left is sheer stupidity.
