- ÉÌ I LIKE MUSIC?
- Ê------------------------------------
- ËÈby Morten H.
-
- ÈAfter "MON - A DISASTER?", written
- by me in the 1st issue of this Brill
- mag, I am now back to critisize some
- musicians on the scene.
-
- Ê---
-
- ÈMost good musicians THINK they know
- much better than everybody else what
- is good music and what is BAD music.
-
- Maybe they are more musical than
- most people on the scene, BUT it's
- the ÉMAJORITY È who decide which tune
- that is the best.
-
- Just as it is the Majoriy of the
- people who decide who is going to be
- Prime Minister/President in a
- country!
-
- Do you Musicians believe that I
- really care how much nice slides you
- have in your music. What I care
- about is, if it is good listening
- at?
-
- The Best song from 1991 for usÉ " who
- don't shit about music"È was Enigma.
- It was very good for your ears! But
- if you ask The Best musicians on the
- scene they will 100 % say something
- else. Why?
-
- In last issue there was a question
- to Jason/Silents like thisÉ " Can't
- people seperate talent from taste?"
- È
- Why should we? Should the musicians
- try to learn us what is talent, so
- we could vote for what we É"THINK"È is
- most talented? If you ask me it's
- better to vote for what we like
- BEST?
-
- At É EVERY È party there is musicians
- who say that the Jury isn't
- qualified to select the right tunes.
- Well, who is qualified? Only
- Musicians? The tunes that is
- selected don't necessarry have to be
- the "Best" ones in a view of a
- musician. É THEY ARE BEST LIKED!
- ÈThat's aÉ BIGÈ difference!!
-
- There will always be a discussion of
- which tune that's Best, just like
- the discussion of what's best of
- Cola and Pepsi? É Accept it!
- È
- Sometime I feel Helpless!, I stand
- beside some musicians telling this
- song is Brilliant! I FIND it Odd
- and not too good. Some minutes
- later the musicians are slaughtering
- a song which I find Nice.
-
- After the compo at the Crusaders
- Easter party. All musicians told
- that this was a Total Disaster. I
- didn't say to these musicians that I
- liked compo. If I had, I would be
- called a "TRATER".
-
- Well, The Tecnosong from Gin/Garnage
- won!Ê (Please contact the RAW staff,
- GIN!, Ed).È 95 % of the musicians
- told that this song was BULL. But "
- Éwe who don't know shit about music"
- Èliked it.
-
- It's the same inÉ REALÈ life. Beatles
- and Elvis are the two most ÉSOLDÈ the
- last 40 years. But are they the 2
- ÉMOSTÈ talented living in the earth
- those 40 years? No! Some weeks ago
- KLF topped the chart, but at that
- moment where they the MOST talented
- group in the world? É NO!
- È
- I feel sorry for all those musicians
- worldwide that make very talented
- music, but think they work is not
- rewarded enough,É BUT:È
-
- What should I do? Should I kill
- myself? Should I not vote on
- compos? Should I quit the scene and
- sell the Amiga? Should I wish I had
- a Dad who could play a instrument?
-
- ÉMake the music to the listeners, not
- only to impress yourself
- Ê- MORTEN H. -
- ÉIt's the listeners of music that
- decide who is best, not the makers!
-
- Ê- MORTEN H. -
