In a year, a multitude of uncontrollable things happen. The prices may shoot up sky high, many people die, and twice of that number are born. In terms of music, the British reports that home-grown talents reach sales at about 57 million in the world; in the Americas, they say that it is about a 150 million copies of record albums are sold in the past year. Why is this so? Maybe because the increase in the population is directly proportional to the amplification of music around the world.
Needless to say, the youth have been more interested and more particular in the kind of music that they want to listen to. They want something that they can relate to, one that speaks their minds, and one that contributes, if not define their identity. As one genre grows every bit of the day, a fan learns to love it and make it a part of their lives. Before they realize it, they had made the music part of themselves, more like a soundtrack to the movie of everyday, the one that we call life.
With the statistics mentioned above, who knows at what high that other artists reach in the UK? And in what record can we see the continuous increase in the record sales all over the world? It goes to show that more and more people are getting involved in the music industry. Countless fans go out of their way just to see their favorite artists perform, have them sign an autograph and strike a pose with their idols in the camera. This can also be seen in concerts, tours and most prominently, in the internet.
And with some, the internet has become the most practical way to tell the whole world how much they love their musical heroes. A majority of people surf the net to buy a CD, while some are able to reach the artists thru blogs, My Space, their Official Sites and others. The internet has also been a great help in terms of learning about your favorite artists. There's VH1, MTV and All Music Guide, the one site that frequently appears in online stores that give reviews, talk about the artists in brief and the artists' works as well. Having mentioned this, a site called WikiMusicGuide gives music fans all over the world the chance to talk and to write about their favorite artists. The site is not just made by just a few editors that do that because it is their work, but because they genuinely enjoy the music.
The elements in this world complement each other. The music industry in a way makes itself more available through the advancing technology, therefore reaching a larger part of the society. And who knows what we'll achieve in a year's time? |
