Conforming in the music world? How do you think different genres of music are made? All forms of music must be acknowledged.

Acknowledging music isn't something I find difficult. Nor is innovation. But when steps are taken Backwards in the development of music, then things become difficult for me to understand.

Music is not being taken backwards. Maybe they should look past the music theory crap. A lot of newer artist use technology to improve their sound and what not. Dubstep is a form of music. Dubstep is created using variations of tweaked instruments.

Music itself is not being taken backwards, but the ones who are "creating" it certainly are. I estimate that the average IQ of a pop music artist is less than the US average.

Music theory is the only thing that keeps music music. Without Music theory, the sound of a car engine turning over can be considered music. It obviously is not.

Most of the good dubstep songs will at least have orchestral bits in the beginning and as reliefs throughout the song, thus conforming to music theory. The problem with pop songs is that they lack innovation at all. Even now, I'm being forced to listen to pop songs and literally every single one of them for the last half hour has been in the same key and are talking about the same basic thing. the golden age of music (1960s-1980s) was the golden age because there were so many different styles going on at the exact same time, and pretty much any type of person could take their pick and find a genre that they liked. Not so with this generation of music. You can either listen to pop, country, or 90's rock.
Of course, you can go back in time and listen to the good music of the 70's and 80's, but that isn't relevant to today's pop music.
All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That’'s how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.
