Will Pulsing "Techno" Music Save The Music Industry?

Before the music industry forever lost hope of holding onto the brilliant music monopoly that they had grasped with an iron fist for decades, it seems they considered techno music as a possible savior of there drowning sales. Though a temporary boost of sales may have made the music industries death a little slower, and a little softer, little it did to rescue the big labels from demise; if anything it contributed to there slow and painful suicide.

Electronic music has fostered the creation of a music industry that features countless independent labels that can better serve artists and listeners. The blessings are more creative and administrative control, more variety in sound, and with advances in technology, easier accessibility to the listener.

Though electronic music is widely listened to, and mainstream pop music is heavily, yet ambiguously influenced by techno, it never helped save the labels from their certain death as they had hoped. There is a connective tribal element that unites the die-hard electronic music listeners; the secret society attitude still pervades its ranks. The stigma of techno music as rave and drug music still circulates among the mainstream media and population keeping the blue-collars at bay. The artists don’t pay into payola. Too many variables factor in as to why techno never loosened the noose on the neck of the studio label music industry.
