the problem is straightforward, music develops, a gamut of constructs exists. Someone realizes, most people don't want the gamut, they just want sugar. with successive generations, consumer music devolves into plain white sugar. chopin was the last turning point, let's call it molasses, then modern pop, clayderman, yirima is the white stuff.
this process happens across multiple industries, we have essentially sugar 1 competing against sugar 2, the human system shortcircuits, and no one can go either up or down. this isn't the first time something like this has happened, nature has a clever way to reset. kill the stupid short circuited animal. assuredly, nature is very good at extinctions. Soon.tm 😛
what animal are you, can you peer over the precipice and divine the willpower to take flight, or will you leap into that seductive empty chasm of pleasure.
