Why can't anyone put out any good original new music?
Everything is either a crappy remake or just crap. It's getting annoying.

4. Film scores...
That's where the good music is.

And contemporary classical composers are coming out with some wonderful stuff these days.

6. Plenty of good music out there IMO

We might disagree on what is good. But if you want the super different stuff, you have to look. It's there, too. Imogen Heap and Kate Bush have new albums out now that are unique and good.

7. Turn off the radio for starters.
You're never going to find anything new there. I'm still hearing songs I heard eight years ago, and some of them aren't even remixed!

8. Yeah, radio is repetitive
Edited on Sat Nov-12-05 10:45 PM by mvd
Not that I dislike all the songs, but I have satellite radio so I can get variety.

I'm more optimistic than many here, and some would call me picky. Just shows how subjective music is. I'll leave it at that. :hi:

9. My Morning Jacket's last two CDs (IMHO)
also, there's a magazine out called Paste-every issue I get comes with a cd full of new music and a dvd of short indie films and music videos. www.pastemagazine.com

10. Because Mozart died in 1791.
After 214 years, the everything has been done to death.
