music evolution..

We have had the 60s' 70s, 80s and 90s.. each decade brought a different style of mainstream music. However to me it seems music may, for the time being have stopped evolving. In my view it has not really changed since 1999 or so. Is therefore the end of music evolution? If not what sounds do you think will occur next?

 

Well most certainly, someone who can hardly sing, can not play an instrument or
write any new song

I predict there will be 100+ Christmas releases of a "NEW ALBUM" - mostly from extinct or long retired performers from the 50's, 60's, 70's etc.
Plus a load of "the latest hot talent" sponsored by Asda, Tesco etc. of people no-one has ever heard of, covering songs of yesteryear (including Christmas songs).

 

Music is still evolving. Nowadays the airwaves are polluted with 'Dub Step'.

For those unfamiliar with the concept of Dub Step, try to imagine this. Its the early 1980s, and you have your first computer witha sound chip in it, maybe an ZX Spectrum or an Amstrad CPC464 perhaps. Full of excitement you learn some basic programming skills, and the more you learn, the more disappointed you become when you realise that your prized new hardware doesn't even come close to living up to its advert. Then bored and frustrated, you decide to pass the time by sending totally random parameters to the sound chip to see what silly noises it makes.
