Today's hip tunes. New music that isn't Classic Rock or Jazz!

freakin' hilarious J... freakin' hilarious!

thanks for the laugh J.

no kidding, the stuff on the radio is mostly unimaginitive junk released by the dozen or so "big player" record companies with infrastructure in the dozen or so media conglomerates. it's lousy music that's intended to be disposable on purpose. just drill the same bland songs into the heads of most sheep 10 times per hour, and some of them will actually buy it.

i remember getting into an argument with a former roommate one day. i said something about "the beatles" to which he replied that they suck. i asked why... his reply was "they're so old!". he was a big fan of the mostly defunct "alternative music" that was the rage 5-7 years ago. i easily won the argument when i asked him "will you remember any of these songs 10 years from now?" to which he could only reply an honest "no".

music that still sells 40 years later can't be bad. i also remember reading a gal's recount of almost the same exact story with someone she knew.

the big players have turned consumerism into a science.

if you want a taste of REAL music that's a way better value than those $18 for one "good" track "hot hits" artist discs, pick a rykodisc CD up.

imagine $10 ("the best of both worlds") for a 2 CD set with AMAZING music in a wide variety of styles. that's what i consider "hot hits", and i'm FUSSY when it comes to music.
