the Prediction thread

Posit a music-related prediction that is specific and novel.

Go.

The decline of the music industry will continue towards the future.

*jazzhands*

I predict I don't live until the next Aphex Twin release.

No new boc.

( i'll label this as specific and shovel)

There will be another Rephlex release that is not attributed to Aphex, but is most likely Aphex.

In the year 2317, IDM will be rediscovered but mislabeled as a 1920s genre, resulting in robots dressed as flappers dancing the Charleston to Exai.

Generative music will slowly rise in popularity as it becomes more dynamic and able to produce novel interactions with listeners.

I think the music future is bright. Electronica is goign mainstream, resulting in more people making electronica, more competition, more pressure on being original, ect. You can already hear the glimpse in the pop world. everything from Bieber to Rihanna is going electronica and I personnaly am starting to like some of them beats. Rap is coming back but with a electronica beat. Le1f, spaceghostprup is good examples. You will see more and more sort of mix between trance, break beat, idm. Vocals in electronica will be more and more proeminent, but with a tasteful way, no the trancey way.

I really beleive the future is bright musically and that the years to come will get better and better!

All pop music will sound like this in ten years (if we're not already there):

This sounds really, really legit.

Nobody mentionned the programmed death of brostep yet ?

Celine Dion will create a solo Noise project called 'Le Vagivore' and start touring independent art galleries across North America and Europe.

Jim Morrison will come out of his hiding spot and reveal to the world he's been alive all this time and that he will record a new album with the doors, then he'll die in a car crash on his way to the studio.

RIP jim ... again.

Flying Lotus will release another spotty album that will be worse than the last one, and more experimental. People will fawn over it and call it "inspiring".

Pitchfork will greatly increase their coverage of trashy criminal rappers, and exclude anything besides Hall and Oates, who will record a smash hit comeback album with Skrillex and Wacka Flocka Flame.

Kanye West will wear a Pope outfit at his next live performance.

Ol' Dirty Bastard will be the subject of Wes Anderson's next film.
