I used to feel that music is flat when I became a Japanese music freak in 2004. I couldn't stand any English music during that time. 3-4 years later I discovered many singers that really do awesome music. Right now I don't see music that flat, but it does sound pretty much the same electronic pop everywhere. Personally I like that because it makes me wanna dance XD
I have also noticed that when I listen to Japanese music these days, there's many songs that I just can't listen. I also think that J-pop was its best quality somewhere between 2002-2007. After that it has gone downhill more or less and thus I've started listening to K-pop more. These days I've felt that I'm starting to like less Asian music as a whole and love more English music. It's odd.
