@EmmaGil23299365 Curious from this standpoint how services such as Spotify will impact this since our discoveries are no longer at the whims of what's on the airwaves #MUNMUS2011
@Couves_Mark I wonder if however Canada might benefit culturally from having Canadian content restrictions be budgetary instead of airtime ensuring higher quality content is produced instead of flooding the market with subpar product. #MUNMUS2011
#MUNMUS2011 I think that it's generally fine to regulate the cultural presence of airwave broadcasters, I don't like how the government has been trying to force regulations upon foreign operators such as Netflix, I wish to import foreign content that's my right
@Matt_Doody19 I think the discussion is less about covers vs originals and more about performance in general. I think people still value a good performance, but find comfort in the familiarity of the original they know so well #MUNMUS2011
@hannahrfoster99 I agree that covers still have a place, but to this point I think it's important for the cover artist to properly inject their own style into the piece #MUNMUS2011
In my experience nobody really cares what's playing when they go to a club to dance. They just want an excuse to dance. Today's audiences value the accessibility of records of their favorites but wouldn't turn up the opportunity to see the original artist perform live #MUNMUS2011
@KaylaWoodman2 I agree with you in principle, however I think the works we're referring to here primarily existed to skirt racially segregated audiences. Often simply taking black music and delivering it to white audiences in packaging they found more pleasing #MUNMUS2011
@JamesWi62990602 I think it's possible there could have been value if the covers had been meaningfuly transformative instead of a pure whitewash of existing work, but as that is not the case I have to agree with you #MUNMUS2011
I think the term Schlock Rockb is mostly justified as it often referred to music that was largely unchanged besides minor tweaks to appeal to a more white audience. They were often uninspired pieces made to get around racial prejudice. #MUNMUS2011
@morepetermoore@KaiStephenson6 I hadn't considered the preacher connection but it makes a lot of sense given his style of incorporating gospel tradition into secular music. #MUNMUS2011
@KelseyVinnicom2 I like this term "forcing the words out" it paints a mental image in my mind that he could not contain the music within himself, that there was so much power that he had to force it out. #MUNMUS2011
I fell that Ray Charles uses this "Breaking Voice" to convey the passion he has for his work. We've seen he is very particular about the production quality of his work and his vocal style is simply another way to convey his admiration for the music #MUNMUS2011
@sbaggs19 I actually hadn't considered additional expression of artist identity through technology. Social media definitely gives us an insight into their lives which could definitely impact how their work could be interpreted.
@LiamWaghorn3 I feel like this is a sentiment that definitely extends to all facets of life not just music. I've met plenty of life long friends in online chat rooms, many of whom have had a large impact on my tastes an the sorts of things I'm willing to try.
I think music streaming is the real game changer. I don't really think it's changed who I see myself as, but I never really listened to music until Spotify came around. Now I can just put it on and discover new tracks every day. #MUNMUS2011
@Matt_Doody19 I think the true crime is in excess a good night out isn't wrong, but listeners should tamper their expectations and realize too much of anything is tiresome. #MUNMUS2011
@EmmaJean157 I think that music portrays a false image of what love is, but to categorize it as a false need seems inaccurate to me, a life with 0 love is cold and depressing, you just need to be ready to accept love from less glamorous places #MUNMUS2011
#MUNMUS2011 I only think the pop music industry keeps people passive so far as people don't find music that truly speaks to them, they listen to what's put in front of them, not trying new things. In terms of societal passivism,I don't think so
#MUNMUS2011 The first thing that comes to mind as a false need in the media Industry is sequels, as soon as people are done with a work they ask "I wonder what they'll do in the sequel"
