This thread reminds me of that mission in Spider-Man 2, where Rio tells Miles to check out the instruments at the music museum and Miles said that computers are his "instrument". Then Rio tells him that music started with humans and computers can't capture the soul of music.

Like someone else said in the thread, today's music is soulless because muthafukkas using computers making microwave music.

Of course. Modern music is cheaply produced and I feel like autotune was introduced so that it could condition people to accept the eventual AI production of music.

"Old music" especially 70s and 80s, are infinitely more complex and harder for AI to create versus some drums and bass booms and a hint of horns.

Played a Bee Gees song on my spotify and saw that Bee Gees has 27 million monthly listeners



They peaked in the 70s

This is the best version of Forever my Lady

That stat about the top 200 being only 5% of streams is major. It’s wild how some songs will chart high and you never come across a person playing it. The threshold for a “hit” is low AF

nah as a techno fan i can't rock with you on this one. humans are superior at capturing the soul of music but you can definitely make soulful music with computers

Is Old Music Killing New Music?

If it's yes, then good.
