The importance of music to teenagers and 20-somethings is undeniable, since their day-to-day experience can be hormonally-induced chaos, without a fully developed pre-frontal cortex to help regulate.
The complexity of the world post-government school indoctrination increases rapidly and the emotions transmitted via music are both comfort and validation.
But does it really have more significance than movies, TV shows, the news?
Maybe if its organic.
But reviewing the history of the music industry, there’s a great amount of inorganic Frankensteined product.
The Byrds didn’t understand why people didn’t like the Monkees, since the same players played the majority of the instruments on both of their albums.
Guns’n’Roses’ major label put out their 1st record on a fake indie label, Uzi Suicide, to give them more rebellious credibility. Are we to assume that the players organically came together without A&R or management involved, given the meat market that Southern California hard rock was at the time?
I knew a guy that was paid a day rate to noodle over Wilco’s tracks so they could harvest ideas.
