Interesting Article: Everything Popular is Wrong

Someone shared this article with me on Facebook, and I thought you all might enjoy reading it. Steffan Goldman reflects on the democratization of music-making, why it's not necessarily a good thing, and how artists (a handful, at least) can rise above it all. I'd love to hear what you all think about it.

  2. Excellent article...

    This is precisely what goes through my head all the time I think about starting something. Trying to get a ball rolling on almost no budget and 100 miles away from anywhere...it really is daunting, especially these days.

    Not to mention the fact that I'm not exactly a musical genius...ha

    But I totally agree with producing in spite of things being the way they are...severing the mental tie between income and music is something a good majority of artists should do...
