I’ve been thinking a lot about this topic recently, which translates into “Settle in guys, here comes a long, semi-coherent rant.” The topic in question is Nerd Music’s place in the current spectrum of popular music, but more importantly, the chances of it, in some shape, becoming the next major cultural shift in mainstream music.

I can already hear some of you screaming at me through the monitors. Trust me, what you are screaming is not something I haven’t heard before when I bring this up. “It’s too niche,” or “Nerds are still outcasts, no one understands them enough to be mainstream,” are all valid points in a normal world, but also, all points brought up about the past musical shifts.

Here’s what the next few articles in this series are going to basically boil down to: I honestly think that with a little help, Nerd Music will be the next British invasion or Grunge-like movement. Take your pick. The fuel has been pooled in a nice little lake and all it needs is that errant spark to explode on the scene.

And I hope to god that I’m right because current music needs it.
