NOMBEDES Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Modern Music (popular, not cool stuff on Bandcamp) is: "Autotuned voices warbling in faux pan Arabic wails, against synth drums machines" In any dispute the intensity of feeling is inversely proportional to the value of the issues at stake ~ Sayre's Law Link to comment

My proof: 1. Autotune. (no further explanation required) 2. Algorithms used by music streaming companies constantly monitor your listening habits so they can provide you with more music the computer believes you would like to hear. Hence, your exposure to musical diversity becomes narrow. Over time you subconsciously bond to computer generated playlists. This trend is exceptionally dangerous as it, over time, could eliminate entire sub categories of music and/or stifle new music and artists. 3. Music composition based on computer measured brain response to certain sounds and timing patterns. Hence Taylor Swift et. al. Second @JoeWhip Exploitative Capitalism or corporate socialism killed modern music. Link to comment

Neither - just plain and honest greed. Why do you think that MQA came out? Because it doesn't do anything but line the pockets of a corrupt system.
