Ben,

Actually you don't have to justify what you like or don't like. That's why we tell people to pick what moves THEM. This is simply a discussion external of your personal picks.

I get bored myself by sound effects etc. When I first started gettings lots of music from JPF member, that wasn't the case. I thought more often that it was cool. But then I started listening to 100's.. then 1000's... the 10,000's... etc.. and my opinion changed from experience. And I think artists could learn from that reality. What seems cool to themselves, or even their friends who may have little exposure to music, may seem like an obvious rip off to someone with a wider perspective. And that can harm them. On the other hand, if they are able to do something really amazing with that sound effect or approach, perhaps they'll be the best that ever did it. Being the first rarely means being the best. And things that have been done many times before CAN be improved on. If they couldn't, then music would long ago have been dead.
