Musical Talent
The music industry has always been filled with a mixture of talents and genres ranging from the detestable pre made pop bands, cheesy trance DJ’s and love song singers to the talented singer songwriters and bands. The main difference in my opinion between the rubbish and the great in music is down to something that cannot be taught or bought and that is raw musical talent. Too many people seem to have been able to bypass the musical talent part of things and have been let loose on the microphone!
If you look back over time, you can see many of the bands that had this raw musical talent produced loads and loads of albums, and many of the bands are still around today, in their old age, still performing. If they are no longer performing, they are still involved in music through the production side of things. The same cannot be said of put together outfits that have no musical inspiration of their own. They simply sing what someone else has written for them, and have their vocals corrected by the people in the recording studio. I think it is a bit of a joke that so many of these people are given the chance to make music, as they are just seeking a few minutes of fame.
There are a great number bands out there that have been producing really great quality music for years and years, album after album, and yet they still do not receive the play time they deserve on the radio due to these manufactured bands and singers filling the airwaves. They should entertain themselves with a new chess set rather than in a recording studio. Incubus is one such band that has been making superb albums for well over 10 years now, and has a huge underground following. Radio play time is very rare though, and I bet that if they were played on the radio, people would love to hear it over the rest of the rubbish.
