    You kind of implied it though. If you think all music sucks then there’s not much point talking about this, but it seems like you do like some music. Otherwise why would you care?

      i didn’t think it was worth addressing.

      if you want some examples:

      Nick Shoulders and the rest of the crew at Garhole Records make a point to showcase regional folk music in the Ozarks.

      Bill Wurtz makes music that sounds like PBS Kids but has more heart than most pop music.

      Lawrence is an indie, duo-led group from NYC that brings the simple motown structure into the modern age.

      Chris Thile and the Punch Brothers are virtuoso newgrass musicians that try not to be up their own ass about being virtuosos.

      this is just a smattering. i never said all music sucks. i said the music industry sucks. and the people i listed above are highly successful independent of the corporate side and would agree with me on that.

        For sure not, I just wanted what would be pleasing to someone with such high standards for the sake of getting some recommendations. So thanks!
