Hello, It’s been a while! 18 months to be precise.

In this episode, we’re asking the question - has it all been done before?

 

Have we reached the frontier of music and there are no new genres, sounds, or musical directions to pursue?

 

Given the amount of music in the world and the hundreds of genres and subgenres that exist, it would be easy to conclude that the answer is...

In today’s episode, we’re going to be exploring that question.

 

Said another way:
