          One of my favorite bass solos is in the song "Flight of the Cosmic Hippo", performed by Victor Wooten in the band Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. He plays a fretless five-string bass and that song can give a subwoofer a really good workout.

            I don't like programmed painting or books written by computers, either. That ain't what computers are for, but they're great news for the lazy and untalented. If you want to produce art, you work at it for years -- decades, even. You don't download an app to do it for you.

                  Be as personally insulting as you like, and feel free to feel insulted by simple truths, but art is art, and guys who spend half an hour knocking up repetitive junk with a computer cannot, by any stretch of the imagination, be defined as artists. Technicians? Sure. But it no more art than a washing machine is. Maybe if you'd spent half your life learning to play an instrument, paint, sculpt, or write well, you'd appreciate that -- and feel the same kind of disgust when some snot-nosed kid says that his CG garbage is art. How do you feel when script kiddies tell you that they're great software developers?

                    Sorry, but if you´d listened to the complete mix, you might had recognized, that it includes a lot of vocal from some very talented singers, which has absolutely nothing to do with repetitive junk. this music was composed in the same way as one would compose music for a cello and piano... btw, mike oldfield knocks up electric music since the early seventies, by your definition he is nothing more than a musicrelated "script kiddy"!? sorry, but that´s ridiculous... and, lastly, to quote myself:

                      Oldfield is a musician -- and you can bet your life that computers weren't used to compose Tubular bells. An electronic instrument is not a computer; it's an instrument.

                        mike used the fairlight cmi in the eighties (also peter gabriel, kate bush, frank zappa et al), so in that point i correct my statement... apart form that, again, if you don´t like the music, simply don´t listen to it. another simple truth... -.-
