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.
