It seems so 😆

Now there’s more freedom, more technical possibilities, better access to previous art, and more connections between artists. In principle it’s difficult to see how that would be bad for art.

Musicians now do covers and remixes and release single songs and do reggaeton, yes… but they also publish four-hour-long conceptual albums, record in acoustic, perform using virtual avatars, sing duets with singers who are long dead, invent new genres, etc. There’s just all that there used to be, plus a lot more.

Perhaps, if anything, it becomes more difficult for #music lovers to find the gems among the rubbish. But gems there still are.
