Very elaborate @bennettitalia I know what you mean by all this, you obviously know your stuff, yeah I like the wordless part and that fills in general, I'm glad someone also sees the beauty in what the vocals before had to offer, more dynamics and emotion there was yes, and less pretentious blabber you see today, more ideals were channeled through music rather than bling-bling and woop-woop of today, glad you enjoyed it, and liked you entry also, very eclectic and direct, very relaxed performance too, keep it up 👍 😎

Hey thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
I agree with you about dynamics and emotion and ideas, however I also think that there is a lot of amazing music being made today... the problem is most of it isn't on the radio. That's the big difference I think: the top down music management has increasingly had an M.O. of "kill it or control it" when it comes to musical expression, and today's pop radio is the result. However, there are many modern day bands that I feel exemplify the qualities you admire in the older music as well, as I'm sure you are aware :)
Thanks for the discussion, it's a valuable experience for me to exchange ideas with other creatives like this.
I didn't say there's no music amazing music today 😁 more like pin pointed what people appreciate today, yes there is lo't of great bands today and of course as a eclectic musician I am well aware of the majority of the of-stream bands offering that old touch, but there is not so seldom also a factor of many "of-stream" bands and even really good ones trying to prove the sounds already made in the older decades instead of understanding that "that" sounds came from eclecticism and idealism that was felt then and today all of those kinda disappeared, so what I think is missing today in most of bands of today is what Icelandic musicians have, and that is not trying to repeat but dig not only what sounds different but what feels different also, for them isolation helped yes, but even now when all of them have internet they still make one of the best music today, this is just my opinion 👍
Nice, I'll check Iceland out! And no, I didn't at all think that you were saying there's no good music today lol :D
We definitely have a similar perspective. Rock on, my friend!
