Music has been evolving since the start of it, nobody know when music was first started or invented but probably it would be before the creation of languages because it is the only thing that does not require language to connect or communicate.The old days music are still remembered because of its simplicity and lyrics but today the music is more based on its beats and western influence on it, its not that western music are bad, but it should not overpower totally the soul of a song.
India has always created some of the great musicians from O.P Nayar to A.R .Rahaman all are faboulous musicians because of whom we could listen to some of the best singer sing.
But if we could point out the influence of western music in Indian music industry it would be from the 60's as the Anglo India culture had some effect on the music.A time was there when lyrics had greater impact on music then music itself but the senario has drastically changed today the lyrics holds no meaning in todays song its hard to dedicate a song to someone as in, what meaning will he take the song as.
But it is hard for someone here to put up his creation in front of people as most of the song have been always associated to Movies and the independent albums for a newcomer is like getting to the moon.
Even though we have had gret influence of western music such as the disc scractching, the keybord replacing harmonium drums replacing tabla.
The music senario there is totally different there the singers are recognised as an artist not just a singer who is a part of movie he is always independent to experiment with something new.Many band are also there who have always been contributing to some of the best music from Betels to LP all of them have created some great music, but we hardly have a band which is well known. The singer there have much bigger brand value than actor or star.To some extent it is the fault of the common people who are not willin to accept something new who don't want to change.
