I would love to have a real studio. But being realistic: Do I have the skills to utilize a studio? Not so much. But damn if I wouldn't try to get it together if there were was interesting music involved. And are there artists/bands in my area that I would dig recording? Not so much. It sounds like a cheap echo of modern radio around here, which isn't interesting to me at all.
But I definitely agree with the general sentiments. I love music, but it seems that the state of music today is in a major steamrolled pancake of the same brand of pop, pop, and pop.
I was driving someone else's vehicle the other day and it only had radio. Flipping through the channels, the best thing on was the fucking Bangles - Manic Monday.
