True shit music always existed, the sheer volume of shitty music though is the problem - ratio is fucked up so takes ALOT longer to find passable tracks.

requests for shitty music seems to be the problem,
punters seem to have no idea what melody is, the charts have stagnated too,
there was no new entry into the uk top 40 last week, a couple of re-entries and then the same 36 songs that feature Dvd Gtta or Sticky Minge, with their one note synth lines, Jessy J's newest attempt features half a badly written idea thats repeated twice before being faded out and Madonna is paying co-stars to sing her name.

and i still get asked for journey- dont stop believing ever since the soprano's finished.
way to go picking your fav song to match the ending of a tv series that you watched,
thank feck trekies are too shy to ask for thier song.

Yep there sure used to be a lot of shitty music out ... the problem now the majority of accessible shitty music, the ease and cost at which its created and distributed.

In the past:
  • The record labels had to decide not just who to sign, but what tracks are worthwhile to physically press.
  • The distributor needed to decide what to physically buy from the label.
  • The corner record shop had to decide what to physically buy from the distributor.


Stock that wasn't sold sat in crates for x months before going on sale, if the shop/label was crap and made bad choices it went outta business pretty fast plain and simple.

Nowadays almost anyone can:
  • Create a track with the right software (some good, some bad)
  • Release a record to the digital distributor, slap a genre on it and it gets sold or it doesn't... no stock outlay required.
  • Theres minimal outlay to the label and possibly zero outlay to the distributor/site.


Take the above and factor in the current relative cost/knowledge required to produce a track these days and you now have an ocean of shit to wade though as opposed to a pond.

Its not that theres is any much better or worse music these days its just the sheer volume of mediocre stuff that would never have seen the light of day if the cost of releasing a track was the same as it used to be.

Now I'm not saying this is a bad thing as there is TONS of artists who simply would not have had the cash to spend in times gone by on hardware, promo pressing etc ... and would never have been released or been successful as a result.

Every other industry dominated by computers seems to be going though the same problem - e.g. graphic design/web design, security CCTV, Point of sale systems, ISP's, VOIP providers etc ... look the volume of providers these days Vs the quality. Its a trend that is not going away unfortunately.

My take on it is this; no one really remembers the mediocre or the shitty music when they believe of Old School music. When you believe of music from the past, you tend to only remember all the great tracks, and totally forget about the crappy ones that came out in that same era, and then your perception gets skewed into believeing that older music was so much better. I dnno

I go through the just released tracks on Beatport all the time and I came to the conclusion that it's not that's there's so much shitty music beng released, it's that there's so much perfectly mediocre music being released. I can go through hundreds of tracks and they all sound the same. The guys playing music that don't have the patience to listen to thousands of tracks to find 10 good ones end up playing 10 good enough ones. The ratio will go down over time though as people get tired of producing and move on to the next big thing. But there will always and forever be shitty stuff to wade through.
