“There is really no such thing as a musical avant-garde, because enough people are now so ready and desperate for ‘difference’ that nothing experimental stays on the margins. The speed at which information can be disseminated about music forces anybody with something resembling originality to be quickly brought to the zenith of their popularity. Thus their career is prematurely terminated, or more accurately, frozen. Hence the search goes on. Anything now is acceptable, such is the need for novelty. It has revealed that there was never taste, just habits. Now there are only waves of enthusiasm that break and sink into the sand, in endless procession.”
