Music is too subjective, to be categorized especially as an antagonist between opposite choices.
Be it Indian or international it totally depends on person to person.For some Indian music is too slow or for some Western is too loud.
But pertaining to the term music, its universal.If its good it will sooth the same eveywhere.
Most of us are already caught into the oldies,the jazz,Rock and pops,the latest chart busters.
Somewhere i think , it just may be Indians have an edge.
Just see the choices spewed before us Indians. We get to choose almost everything.We dance on International and we rock on Indians top charts.We never had so many choices.But i am a bit saddened by one new aspect of songs Composing.
The New Music Directors create songs in a way of steps and cuts.
The part where singer fits the voice is cut and used.Though this helps in saving the time as the singer dont have to sing the complete song inone go, hence he can do with minimum practice.
But what this has done is its taken the melodic effect out of the songs to an extent.Songs now depends too much on effects and Tracks.
This is the reason Old Songs are forever ,just like what it should be with good Music.It forever!
