Music Has Become Simpler. Does It Matter?

Kam Raslan returns, and with his trusty sidekicks, Ong Kar Jin and Matt Armitage, they tackle three topics that will tickle your curiosity. Kar Jin steps up first, and as the youngest of the three, confesses to missing newspapers and how news was curated and delivered then, compared to now. This warms them up nicely for the second conversation on science fiction and whether this genre delivers (or not) on the kind of promise that it makes in its tropes. The second part of the show sees Matt talking about music and how it’s become simpler these days. But does it matter? Hear their thoughts on that, and the other two topics on another tantalising episode of A Bit of Culture.
