This is a normal post I see no evidence that "people don't love music as much as they used to"
Otherwise Beato wouldn't have 3 million subscribers to his channel.

Also, what's wrong with shorter pop songs?

This is a normal post Even though
he specifically denies it about a third of the way in, it is very much 'old men shouting at clouds'.

Lots of strawmen (literally nobody has ever campaigned for 16 second pop songs) and 'if everyone just listened to the music I like, they would realise it is objectively better than the music they like'

Also, referring to 'a scientist in the early 60s showed that listening to rhythm for ten minutes boosted immune response'... well that's a fascinating claim, has no one in the subsequent 60 years reproduced/built on that finding?

Rant over, I actually like the guy's channel.

This is a normal post I have no doubt
that music has genuine therapeutic properties, I'm just a bit suspicious when a man of a certain age quotes (without referencing) some 'science' done in the 60s which then leads to a lot of talk about shamanic rituals... not saying it's wrong, neccessarily, just that I'm not convinced by this particular gentleman's scientific rigour... ;)

This is a normal post There is a problem with the business model which doesn't reward musicians
But excellent music is still being recorded. Proportionally its volume may appear smaller now that anyone can record an album and upload it to Spotify . The audience is also much more fragmented so simple mainstream pop seems more prominent.
