A good observation regarding music...

I just came across this blog entry by Third Day's guitarist Mark Lee. With so many threads going around discussing whether or not pop culture is as degraded as it seems, this one fits.

Well...not to sound cliche, but art IS in the eye of the beholder...and in my eye I don't find a whole lot of artistic value in Third Day's (religious) country tunes. But then...I own every album by Kraftwerk and I don't think a lot of people see much artistic value in their ground-breaking music.

Third Day, country?

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Rock is dead. Long live rock.

The only recent music i've listened to with any artistic value is early nineties hip hop (NWA and the like). Mostly it's jazz (30s-60s) and blues (largely pre-electric) i listen to.

Who are Third Day?

I am by no means any sort of expert on it...

but here is the wikipedia for it..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance_music

it says "Trance music is a subgenre of electronic dance music (EDM) that developed in the 1990s. Trance could be described as a melodic, more-or-less freeform style of music characterized by steady beat between 130 and 158 bpm and repeating melodic patterns. The genre is arguably derived from a combination of largely techno and house. Trance got its name from repeating and morphing beats and melodies which would presumably put the listener into a trance."

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Okay, i'd heard of that.

Ever heard of Enigma? :cool2:
Hmmm... NWA what does that stand for? I didn't know wrestlers sang in the 1990s.

Perhaps I'll take out a life insurance policy so my heirs will pay a choir and it will be sung at my funeral Mass? I'll have to have that put into my will. :drum: Are Gregorian Chants sung at weddings?
