She's the real aristocrat .

 

Exactly that's what the scene does (all that rendered possible by the digitalized world obviously, and also greatly by the globalization of production process, which creates other problems, but also have its benefits)).
Doing music is possible with the help of a certain number of tools. They can take many forms (you can learn music theory or to play an instrument in many different ways, with a teacher, books, on the net, through videos, you can learn on a real instrument, a cheap second hand midi keyboard), but for many people before today it was just not possible.
The example you give is true but even without going so far both geographicaly and in the degree of poverty (there are also middle classes in countries not as economicaly develloped as ours), let's not forget that a lot of people here today couldn't even begin to dream doing half of what they are doing today on their computers with their crack softwares maybe ten years ago.
I come from that world. Not so long ago, without some serious means to get hardware or studio time, you were absolutely f...d.
And right after that, there were softwares but not as powerfull as they are today and not able to accomplish what we acoomplish with them today (basically anything), but the scene almost didn't exist at least for people not in the know how, or knowing the right persons.
You couldn't find tutorials obviously, you had to pay teachers or find the books to learn basic things in music theory or producing matters, no samples packs by the billions.
So to get in the game you had to be in the right environement to get access to knowledge surrounding music,instruments, a place to record, hardware to do the recording, mixing etc, some friends musician, some people knowing the techs (and some managed to succeed although while not being in that crowd obviously, but for that you had to be both insanly gifted at birth, and you had to get noticed, by the big shots holding the keys to paradise).
So yeah, yesterday music world was paradise for people being favored by things that had nothing to do with talent or willingness to learn or work their ass off to get skills.
It was about being from the right social background, knowing people, and having money.
Success in the music industry has probably never been so hard for many different reasons.
But it has never been so easy (at least for us in the countries not at war or drawning in poverty) to learn music and to practice it. The privileged cannot close that door anymore, they don't get to say who has a shot at this great discipline or not. It's democratic. Aristocracy lost that battle, the elite, etc.
That's probably what tickles them the most, when they say that the scene should die, it would be better for "music". They are dreaming for segregation to come back. But that's done, and we're never going back there. The toothpaste is out of the tube. It makes them mad.
