Summary

This quote suggests that in contemporary society, music has lost its ability to bring about change or provoke meaningful experiences. Instead, it is seen as contributing to a culture of repetition, where everything remains stagnant and nothing significant occurs. The quote implies a sense of disillusionment with the current state of music, implying that it no longer holds the same power to inspire or push boundaries as it once did. This idea hints at a broader critique of society's lack of progression and a longing for something more impactful and transformative.
