Originality in Music

Gelly turned me onto this interview by Zach Katz, who is one of the top managers for producers in the hip hop industry. Although it specifies hip hop, the main jist is in there.

Basically what Zach says is that you should be original with music. Sampling can only get you so far no matter what style you make, and instead of following trends, you should find your own sound and strive to BE that new thing, lead instead of follow. Not to mention, the difference between sampling and original music can mean making or breaking a million dollars, straight up.

Anyhow, i thought it was very interesting, so check it out.
