So why mainstream audiences wants simple things, repetitive shit? Are most people honestly have this bland taste, and so simple minded that they are easily entertained by tracks that contain no substance and creativity at all?

Just compare songs from actual good artists like to name few i like to listen like chvrves, the chain gang, etc for electronic music, poets of the fall, umphrey mcgee, lupe fiasco, cunnilynguist, etc to stuff from justin biebier or katy perry or whatever shit they are called now.

The former's songs has a lot of depth, like complex instruments and layered melodies, beat that change as the song progress from chorus, bridge, etc, actual buildup and payoff in the songs, etc.

The latter have the same 4/4 beats, like one instrument playing in the background, forming a melody no more complex than a single motif repeated all over. They are catchy yes, but in a bad way. It is just not stimulating.

Know catchy good stuff? They are usually come from videogames, like mario bros theme, zelda theme, or like nost of the old school games to moderns. Thats how you do catchy music. They are simple, yet sometimes brilliant both in using hooks or arrangement. So hummable, whistle-able and comfy without being banal and completely flat.

I am not really musically inclined, so the jargon i use are probably bot accurate, but at least i am able go distinguish good music from shit one
