Ein Gedanke, der mir wirklich gefällt, ist, dass Musik ein lebendiges Wesen ist, das sich weiter entwickelt und dem Künstler ermöglicht, einen Werdegang zu verkaufen, statt einem Produkt.
One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product.
