Trace, copy, modify, and keep doing it until you can produce shapes out of your own head. Most of mine don't come out well, but sometimes I get something I like.

I lost my baby girl at 34 weeks in utero, and now we have a son. I couldn't imagine losing another, and I'm so sorry that anyone has to go through this.

This is from "Wizard People, Dear Reader," by the way. If you haven't seen it, I think it's all on YouTube, and it is glorious.

Haha, my high school girlfriend (now wife) did actually go to a different school, and my friends (even the ones who knew her) would always insist she didn't exist.

Oh yes. An example from my listening history: Motion City Soundtrack's 3rd album, Even If It Kills Me. It is an amazing album. However, the second song, This Is For Real, is the single. It's a bland pop number that I skip every time.

There are some things here, but he misses the mark. I'd say the problem is more that the pop music industry has been so homogenized in order to create the most marketable and catchy music (which he addresses), but this dude is treating genres like they're the problem. Sure, most rap you hear on the radio sucks. It's on the radio. That doesn't mean that there isn't amazing hip-hop out there. Just like there aren't catchy pop-rock bands that are original and have talent. But if you're under the thumb of a rich old white guy in the studio who tells you what your music needs to sound like, then you're going to have a bad time.

Yeah... Maybe she quit acting to reduce stress on her body in an attempt to prevent further miscarriages.

Yeah, I've read that pop music is more homogenized now than it's ever been, so if you don't like pop, then there's a lot of terrible music out there. However, as long as you aren't listening to the radio, there's a lot of good music to be found.
