Bob..
of course from a marketing/sales perspective i completely agree with you.
includeing the need for snazzier vids that appeal to the new generation of buyers.
(i was once involved in marketing strategies btw.)

and sure, i'm always happy to have more style options.
great stuff.

if we are talking pure marketing...there are many proven methods.
eg get some big names to endorse ones product. another being to sow the seeds in educational institutes. etc.

but..lets backtrack a bit.
lets take a present day contemporary song creator called "xyz" .
how does xyz create original songs ?...is he/she useing anything magical different from the rest of us song creators ?
sequencer ? daw ? midi ? audio traks ? samples/libs ? surely no different than the rest of us ?
i'm curious what creativity tools contemporary xyz uses
different from the rest of us ?

and lets say pg create 50 new wonderfull styles aimed at
the contemporary market...yippeee ! i'll take them ...
but all i'm saying is that STILL with all these new styles a song is still lots of production work laying down traks etc etc //arrangeing//chord structures//and so many other myriad things to think about for a song creator in creating a song.
choice of style is but one of many decisions in creating a song.
see where i'm coming from ?

best
