Before the Music Dies - Trailer #1

[MagusPaganus]

Autotune isn't so bad, until you start noticing it. That's when you start wondering about those who NEED to use it, about the motives and objectives of those who are promoting them in the first place, and about those who care less whether their favorite artist can sing in tune or not.

I think the short film 2081, or the Kurt Vonnegut story on which it is based, are worth considering in this context, too.

[NorthshoreMonaVie]

Priceless!



[DivineSoulAngel]

Great music is TIMELESS !

[anina114]

Young people who are so called fans of music need to watch this doc.

[dreamervsnightmare]

" One Thing About Music Lovers Today Is They Smell Fake From a Mile Away"

[94Gripweed]

I hate to say it, but as much as I love them, The Beatles simply could not survive in this world of auto-tune, Bieber and Cyrus. Their whole career would have been dictated by focus groups and the record labels. They would be soulless, and just as forgettable as all the other acts in music today.

[rcrase]

If music mattered, Neurosis would be mainstream right now. That band kills it, for real.

[londonkill]

can't make a comment cause they filter

[proent]

F the radio

[3R1CtheRED]

exact words from someone i know when they listened to the song "Us and Them" by Pink Floyd.

"omg this song is soooo gay its got like, old people in it."

.........well my friend, go listen to autotuned miley cyrus for all i care, bitch.

[adeart72]

[micoluce]

Naw, it's Doyle Bramhall II.

[tompyman]

you're probably right. but it woulda been nice for the atmosphere of the title if it was.

[guitarguru1234]

hate to break it to ya but thats bramhall one of the best texas gutiar players around

[Alibart]

So many musicians & bands we love, would not make it today because they wouldn't look right. Saying that I do think it depends on who your audience is. If your aiming for for top 20 hit I agree, but I love The Pogues & Shane for instance is beautifully ugly.

[sldougla]

Everyone that loves music needs to watch this. And Erykah Badu is hilarious!!!!

[clesterrific]

As our society gets dumber our music,movies and TV shows will also get dumber. The music industry, much like the movie industry, is catering to people with very limited intelligence. Imagination has become a thing of the past. It's been replaced with CGI, HD and Surround Sound. Just stop buying the junk and they'll stop making it.

[trentallen87]

erakah is so funny just be butt naked some where with a beeper that is so funny!

[ITZDAKRIS001020]

never mind, i found the credits within 2 minutes of my previous post.

[ITZDAKRIS001020]

the guy in the band whos singing up there, he says into the microphone" i said watch waht you say my friend"

what band is that!?!?

the music seems amazing...i hate that they didnt give credits

[LassieRF]

As it seems to be the opinion of most people who have commented here, I also agree with how sad the situation of music these days has become, how for the record companies, it's all about the money and not even near enough about artists with actual skill, as opposed to artists who simply sings what their company writes for them. Which is why it makes me happy to see that a documentary concerning this pollutive wrongdoing has been made.

[Superfission]

I like all of the people posting comments trying to act like they're smart or something. I'd be more likely to take your comments seriously if you would just proofread your shit. Words like "buisness," "everybodey," and "audiance" are words that intelligent people should know how to spell.

[nikanj]

Yeah I wish. The majority of "the audiance" doesn't know swat about music. They'll just listen to what MTV tell them to listen to. True music lovers are a dying breed.

[divajc]

We all talk about the superficiality of the music industry, today. But what are we doing about it as artists? I was the first American Jazz singer to sing in Tianjin, China's third largest city. There is no jazz there and, after one month of singing there, coming to Tokyo, where they just jazz, I am depressed because it's not about the music, anymore, just about how much money the club owner is going to make and who is going to bring in the most people. The music is irrelevant.

[mstarman]

Good music is talent, and a thirst to always learn how to play things better. One of many reasons i love dace matthews band

[clevawoman]

its butt naked wednesdays...

[koenie17]

Yeah... I totally agree with everybodey.

Would like to see the complete documentary.

But even this crappy music industry can just not beat good pure music. At the end the good music will prevail.

They will make some(huge amounts!!)money now until everybody gets bored and wants something else again.

I´ts just a reflection of these crazy times we are living in now(consumer society).

But for me good music is like the truth!! at the end it will always overcome!!!

[UnitedAgainstPayola]

Great video. Wish there were more videos that exposed the truth about the music industry.

[VLM123]

Can't wait to see it!

[neosoulcequr]

yes finally...i will watch this documentary when it gets here...i am so tired of this fake shit...the most talented musicians are so underrated like bilal and martin luther...people don't even know who they are!!!

[Jesseblues]

It's all about showbuisness? What about the communicationbuisness?!Wasn't the original cause to play music to communicate in higher manner?I don't need no "artists",who spend more time in the gym or on shopping,than writing good music.What we need are communicators and no show-offs.Jimi Hendrix did not sing"Excuse me,while 'I shop and buy'",did he?Oh boy,I hope it's gonna have a happy end.How can so many people be so blind?Well, I guess every society has the heros , they deserve..

[OhioGhost]

Record companies realized a long time ago that true talent is irreplacable. That is we get all these disposable "artists" cause someone will always be younger and hotter and thus replaced easily.

[bluez4u2]

Finally a movie that exposes the crappy music industry. The world of Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan....the fake musicians.
