I was listening to a bunch of mashup songs. If you delve into it you'll find stuff like Danzig and Idol singing to a Rihanna song, or Bananarama doing vocals for Rammstein. The more of the mashup songs I heard, the more I started wondering are there only so many chord progressions, are commercial song structures set in stone, is the earworm a product of familiarity?

While listening to those mashups, I thought there's no fucking way Roy Orbison's "In Dreams" could ever be mashed up..

There are still young, talented musicians out there -- they are just not signing up with the major labels, because to do so is to sign your life way. Ninety percent of your earnings go to Jew middlemen. They heavily promote new bands with advertizing, but they don't pay for it -- the band pays out of its future earnings, which means they get almost nothing for their music, except when they perform live. Many talented bands decide to just skip the record industry and keep doing live shows in their own region of the country.
