Ted Roden's open letter to independent music

tedroden: I want you to bring guitars up in the mix. That part of the song where you don’t have any lyrics? That’s a perfect time to destroy my face with guitars…Most importantly, turn the amps back up. I’m tired of nodding along or standing near the edges of the crowd…Give me something that will make me pump my fists in the air. People should avoid standing in front of the speakers.
