Nostalgia isn't what it used to be!

In the real world I write a lot about music and it has undergone a real shift since I first started playing/writing about it. Ironically the call for everything to be free via streaming, downloads, videos means that music, at least at the grassroots end has become almost valueless from a business point of view. The upside of this is that without a financial career path to follow, there is some amazing music being made outside the music industry proper, music that will never pay the bills but which would never have been made otherwise. So take the money out of creativity and good things happen. Discuss?

Listening to music calm our mind.l know that you have much knowledge than me on music. But I would like to tell you that this is the thing which has the power to touch everybody's heart.

As I said I write about new, unsigned music so you might want to check out my site. It has new reviews daily, often with videos, audio tracks and links to the artist pages and websites. All sorts of genres covered.

Creativity shouldn't be about money, but one can't survive very well in this world without it.

I guess it is the age old dilemma for the creative. Go an obvious route and sell stuff or make the thing that you really want to make and know that you will have to do something else to pay the bills. Even Van Gogh only sold one painting in his life. Maybe he should have just employed a PR company and got himself a you tube channel.
