Its hard enough selling a CD to someone under 22, let alone someone over 22.
As a purist myself, and I was actually there during the Bowie period, This has nothing to do with "mechanized triggers" and everything to do with songs. Neither Bowie, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney and Sting have made a great record in the last 15 years.
Finding great songs today that do not sound recycled is a rarity at best.
You must be in a parallel Universe.

it's all very fallout boy style trendy stuff. wake me up in a fews years ...
ps. sorry if i offend. i've been listening back to a lot of bowie lately. i yearn for the days of 'life on mars'. before my time and different genre, but still, now that's dynamic/breathing/expressive rock (too much so, if anything). can't we move forward and take advantage of modern technology without completely losing that spirit? sorry again; just not into this sort of squashy/sampled/mechanized thing people are doing these days. not sure how anyone over 22 can be either, but to each his own. |
