Pop today seems to be really horrible.
Timberland is always pretty decent. But it seems to me like the urban genres today and hence pop itself is addicted to noise. You can't blame the producers if that's what the public wants and responds too. Look at Dr. Dre and Emenem back in the early thousands and late nineties no one could beat them. Now days people are ripping on them for making music instead of a bunch of racket. Sound can be noisy and that's alright. I mean right now is the perfect time to experiment if everything sounds like shit. Who's going to notice if you try some things out. 2006 was a year like that for me and so is 2009.
I hope you will enjoy my strange uncharted music this year just as much as you did in 2006.
