I've got stacks of Miles. I think you might be looking in the wrong place for your music. You see, there are two kinds of music: noise and emotion. You're talking about noise, which has, for the past 50+ years, been dominating what is called "pop". It's been this way for a while, and it shows no signs of stopping so long as people can profit from it. And it's fun sometimes. I've been to a few really nice clubs where they play techno which is the ultimate expression of noise. It's not necessarily all bad, as some composers can spin some amazing melodies into their songs, but the songs aren't there to stir emotion, they are there to make noise.
If you want emotion, I suggest you go get a really good recording of Dvorak's 9th "From the New World" or Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" album. Enjoy them alone or quietly with friends. Listen to the amazing emotions and let them overwhelm you. It's not noise.
