It's not meant for everyone
I get that, but it's not a good cross over. Maybe if you so happen to have a bias towards modern pop and country.
It's a little bastardizing to people who do real folk music from all around the world.
If you're not authentic in the pursuit then I think it's best to be left alone.
But what ever, people gonna people...
*edit* that mix tape browse through seems to be fairly tasteful.
but that's your opinion...
There are songs we think are good and songs we think are bad, crossover or not it doesn't really matter...
Not when you're involving other culture in which you have absolutely zero involvement with or knowledge about, then it's not an opinion. It's insulting.
Like i really don't care about this sort of thing because i don't actively listen to it, it's just kind of a disservice and a watered down version of what is actually genuine.
If you've read my third post, which supports this quote, then maybe the whole "you're opinion man" wouldn't of been brought up.
Because it's very true, you have people who want to take something a culture and try to steal it and make it into something it's not. And they tend to do that with out any respect to tradition.
you're basic comments are "no i have the option to not respect what has been and what will be". Then that's the problem.
I've also said, in my third post, that you can do things like this because popular music of most genres can easily cross over with out much pain.
Country music now a days is most definitely pop and rap combined with twanged out telecasters and vocals, which is just dumb. It sound good but it's silly compared to what it could have been and what it has been.
I don't really care, because my roots are deeply involved with what i know is genuine and authentic folk music. I can't blame others for wanting that and not having it.
I suggest you don't feed me more than what you've already have given me...
I'm starting to get a feeling that you're the type of person who doesn't like change, which I guess is all right, but probably not the best attitude to have when we are living in a period where change is a daily. Especially when electronic music is basically the definition of change. If you didn't have a stick shoved up your ass, you'd be able to appreciate the fact that people like country enough to try and bring it into the modern world. You even said it sounds good, but your mentality doesn't allow you to enjoy it. I honestly, don't see how this is disrespectful to your "culture", no one is saying "kill the hillbillies!" or "fuck country music", people are just making something new that they think sounds good. If you can't appreciate the fact that people like country enough to bring it up to date, then you're just going to be angry forever. I am not a fan of country music, but the stuff BURNT. makes is really good. Hate me for liking this "watered down" stuff, but it's good and nothing will change that.
