## Resource

London DJ and producer Sam Young argues that originality in music has fallen to an all-time low, and that algorithms, shortcuts, and a culture addicted to the familiar all share the blame. Host Sean Martin presses him on what it actually takes to stand out when streaming, sampling, and AI have turned sameness into the path of least resistance.
