There is something about the rhythmic harmony of sounds in a song, the mood and blend of colors in a painting, and the silhouette of a sculpture that deeply resonates with our souls. Across different art forms, there is something about music that we have always felt we needed, spanning centuries and reaching every corner of the world. Perhaps this is why music has evolved into a multi-billion-dollar industry today.
So, what keeps our interest in this industry alive? There are many factors: the audience, the talent of the artists, promotion and advertising, live performances, image, and more.
Music is also a form of commerce, and as the Greeks used to say, “advertising is the soul of commerce.” With the advent of radio and television, a new world of possibilities opened up for music, and true music stars emerged.

It seems like modern music is lacking the magic it once had. We are inundated with a flood of tunes that are technically altered to sound “in”, but the result is often a disappointing mix of sounds, heavy electronic assistance, and less emphasis on vocals.

Unfortunately, this approach rarely succeeds in captivating listeners and remains nothing more than an unsuccessful attempt to create something new.
Originality is not an infinite resource. However, in the past, music was genuine and had the ability to mesmerize the audience, a quality that much of today’s music lacks. The problem lies in the overwhelming focus on high-tech production, where lyrics and the message they convey often go unnoticed. The so-called “smashing hits” all seem to follow a universal formula, relying on autotune and beats … ...Read the rest.

Some individuals believe that if you want to change the world, you shouldn’t become a bass player; you should pursue something more challenging and stimulating, like working at the Post Office. But does this misconception accurately depict bass players? Let’s reconsider our habitual perception of bass guitarists as necessary but unexciting members of a band, similar to accountants.
