Yes Obs, I agree with you there. In a way the fun and also the soul seems to be missing in the big music industry.
It is not like in the 70-ies, when there were so many experiments and so much really good music, made by passionate musicians. Music one could live by and through.
In this country we have some talentshows, where young singers are being coached by experienced older singers. It is really good to see how music can still be a craft that is being executed, rather than the machines doing all the work. Of course, it's TV and also commercial, but still, it is good to see the enthusiasm and the work of these young singers.
There are still a lot of good musicians around, but I can do without the artificial pumped up music that has an identical sound.
