to pitch. i think the electric guitar will be more sparse. ppl are tired of the over-amplification, the gain, the drug lifestyle, the synthetic music that comes off a keyboard, not real instruments. woodwinds, violins, acoustic instruments i think will be more welcome.
hip hop has devolved so much in the last couple years it's resorted to self-parody. comedians and jocular artists are the only ones making listenable rap music these days.
production has changed. before it was nice to hear a synth-pop song, because it had ACTUAL, real percussion instead of drum machines.
in short, i'll think we'll be seeing a return to craft because fewer artists can make a solid living off of pumping dreck into the top 40 charts today. nobody buys music.
