It's the technology that contributed to the decline. Things are easier to do so there's less creativity (in the traditional sense) and we're left with people trying to be creative with very advanced tools.
Yeah and that makes everyone competition. As I see this play out more, I do actually like that it CAN democratize things since everyone has access to everything now along with all the tools they'd ever need right on their computer. However, that also means there's just so much more content, so the audience scrolls through a lot of shit too. How it impacts the end user/consumer isn't something I really thought about too much until recently and that's also contributing to decline in attention spans too I think, since there's just so much content now to scroll through and so much of it just isn't worth your time.

What you're saying reminds me of times I've seen people aimlessly scrolling on their phones, and going really fast too. Then they put their phone down only to pick it up 10 seconds later!

yeah what sucks is that now it's been democratized so much that it's probably harder to make a career out of it. seems there's a lot less small/mid size options, and less support roles as tech advances, and I wonder if that could impact quality for a while too (if there's less incentive will less people dedicate themselves to music?) then again the chance of making it has always been rare, but it seems like there used to be more options (but then again labels were bigger... so pick your poison)

there was a dude who commented on one of my vids where I said "how the fuck do you influencers record yourself and screen" and he gave me the name of screen record software...

I think I'm losing faith in society. Or perhaps I have a chance at acting if beatmaking doesn't work.
