[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1360543517' post='1972223']Dizzee Rascel /Wiley - or whever came up with grime.... hip hop meets faster pop beats and suddenly London has it's first genuine urban music style[/quote]

London did it before that with the jungle and D&B sounds.

I'm sorry to have to say this but the people who claim there is no innovation in modern music are usually too lazy to take the time to follow the crumbs and investigate music properly.

plus the one.

i can think of one guitarist who, imho, pretty much invented a new way of playing their instrument (in the last 15 years or so...)

and no...i'm not going to make it that easy for you ;)

As soon as you start getting into the 'but so-and-so did it first' the entire discussion dies. There is [i]always[/i] an obscure example of someone who came up with an idea before the individual who popularised it.

Nothing is truly new and I find we really do get messed up by the detail- will there be another Beatles? There probably is a genius type band singing in Cantonese somewhere- ( but we wouldnt know that )

Who cares about innovators- the audience?- I very much doubt it. Typical musician speak.

I do hate mediocrity but everyone is innovative in some way. We are all individuals!!!............"I`m not"
