Just seen a great explanation as to why so much of today's pop sounds the same.

Jwm, ahead of the curve again.
Some of those replies are from me.
Oh well, what the guy has to say can't be said enough, right?
I think while that guy has very good points(especially on compression and loudness war) and data. He is making this seem like its a bigger issue as it is and generalize too much.
For example, He mentioned adam lambert and was raving on how these two guys write nearly all pop songs for him and others. Well this song was written for adam lambert(this is the song writers version)
And i dont think its as simple and stupid as that guy paints all modern pop songs as. Also the amount of talented singers being on surface has increased A LOT over the years.
Sure most pop is crap, simple, stupid, unmusical and all that, made just for people who doesent understand music. But there is some good stuff going on, even in the pop scene.
He is also leaving out the fact that it used to be harder to get signed and more often something else was required from artists than that he or she can sing. Also there is a lot of more music being released now, so its no wonder that its hard to be original, especially when people demand tons of very similar stuff. He is also forgetting that todays pop music lacks the differibg timber, because nowadays pop music is not played with real instruments so much, but relies playing the same exact sound on same notes(guitars timbre will vary a bit even with same note). Todays pop music is not what it used to be. Pop isnt really even a genre, but just means the popular music of the day, regardless if its played with guitars and sang over or with an mpc and some rapping like talk and autotuned to sing..
Pop music looks easy until you try to make a pop thing that doesn't sound like someone's cynical parody of pop. Everything has to be extremely economical and balanced. You can't just wank around. I still haven't gotten it right
Very true

I don't watch 'talent' shows, mainly because of the idiocy in forcing, let's say, a soul singer to do a country and western theme. Or anything that an act would simply not do in the normal course of events.
However, after hearing Adam Lambert on radio, I looked him up and was surprised at how innovative he was on American Idol, and how both vocally and visually he was head and shoulders above the competition.....yet still didn't win. Presumably because Americans preferred what they have been conditioned to want?
So, Lambert left the show, and had a great hit with that Pink song. Then it all fell apart. Instead of realising his potential to become an American Bowie, he recorded crap gay disco, then joined the remains of Queen, effectively becoming a Queen tribute act.
Lambert had the profile, the look, the voice and after AI, the contacts, yet still failed to really produce the goods. My point being, this was someone that the industry did support, and wanted to succeed. So what went wrong? Why didn't whoever was guiding his career pair him with great rock musicians of his own generation?
Or was it that no matter how good he looked or how brilliant his voice sounded, he couldn't write a great rock song to save his life, and the 'machine' is not geared up to produce that kind of material?
