It's known fact that nowadays it's impossible to make completely new music, so you're forced to copy and imitate or just stop making music.

it should not be that one seeks to make something completely new, but instead seeks to express what is unique about them personally.
With the advent of electrical instruments, electronics, multi track recording, digital recording (and so on) it was easy to do something novel and sort of stop at that. But if you analyze what was done even in these "new" things it is based on the same forms that have been components of music for millenia.
ultimately it is whether or not the musician has a valid expression whether or not their music will be good. Did classical composers feel restricted because the technology of their times changed infrequently(by comparison to our own times) ?
