Differences Quote by Tim Hecker
“There have always been people making music. On their porches, playing folk songs. Playing piano in quiet salons. You don't have to listen to every MySpace page, so what's the difference? It's just noise that you filter out.”
About This Quote
Music has always existed in everyday spaces; modern platforms like MySpace add noise that we filter, not new content.
In simple terms: Music is a constant, platforms just add more noise.
Listen critically, not passively.
