Some
people grow up and want to be musicians.
They take a blend of different influences, mix them all together and
craft their own sound. This is when
music becomes an entity in and of itself, unique to these people even if you do
say something “This is a mix of Element A and Element B”.
What
Charlie Oxford does, however, is almost note for note, beat for beat, takes
pages right out of the playbooks of current musicians such as Bruno Mars and
Maroon 5. I’m not even sure if this
would fly twenty years from now, but considering that both Mr. Mars and the
Misters Maroon are still out there making music this really doesn’t seem to
have a place.
Granted,
this may have some appeal to some people who listen to pop music and don’t mind
sending in the clones, but for me I must question why we need another Bruno
Mars/Maroon 5 when we already have them in our rotation.
