imo the scene has become more fomulated... and when something becomes formulated it gets caged within its own boundries...
how can something grow if its contained? it doesnt it kinda fills all possible space untill something comes along that breaks out of the box... Then people go "Wo thats awesome" i can draw all sorts of inspiration from that... and then in time what was a revaltion becomes the norm again and so on an so forth... eventually something will break out of the box again!! i just think at the moment things are a bit contained... just my thoughts ;)
