I’d struggle to name even one artist that Gen Z likes. IIRC the music streaming services are dominated by decades old songs
@DW2 It’s not that music is dead, it’s just diffused into 20,000 sub-niches. It’s one of the few media pieces that an enterprising, talented nobody can make in his home without any assistance - there IS a lot of good stuff being made. The problem is finding it amongst all the noise.
That’s why all the music stuff now is predicated on trying desperately to connect the average listener to novel music they’ll actually like - but all those services suck because they’re constantly being subsumed into the record label millieu. Whatever you like, someone else does, too.
“There hasn’t been anything good since new wave” says the boomer, not realizing there’s a subculture making new-old-stock new wave that wouldn’t have felt out of place in the 80s.
Music has a discovery problem, not a manufacturing problem.

I seriously don't understand the reasons behind this, but even as a kid, I have noticed, that literally ALL of good music.... were from movies and games.
While pop was always trash, as soon as you have to use the music to enhance the atmosphere of a movie or a game, the people will find something worth listening to.
So, yeah. I think it's just that trash is pushed by the big money, or that average consoomer is retarded. But it's definitelly not, that the good music is dead.
