-Is there even such a thing as "mainstream"
-anymore? I mean it used to be the case that
-everybody watched the same nightly news and
-listened to the same radio station. And
-"counterculture" was growing your hair long
-and listening to rock and roll. Now the duality
-of mainstream vs. counterculture seems as
-quaint as the idea that there are only two
-genders or only two sexes. Kids don't listen to
-rock & roll to rebel, they listen to soundcloud
-emo rap, or whatever, and if the niche sound that
-speaks directly to them doesn't exist, they can
-invent it and upload it for the world to hear with
-little more than a cheap laptop.
