The Real Thing Versus Computer Generated
Motivational Monday! "A lot of it starts with playing instruments and working with other people...some of the new generation is doing it on computers and they don't have a clue as to how to play anything." -Musician Ray Parker Jr. , born on this day in 1954. How does "it" start for you, whatever "it" is?{/size

"Everyone making electronic music has the same tool kits and templates. You listen, and you feel like it can be done on an iPad. If everybody knows all the tricks, it's no more magic." Thomas Bangalter

For me, Ray Parker Jr. is talking about the reality of the performance. When Ghostbusters II came out Parker was quoted in comments about the new movie. Although he did not dislike the situation he wished he had been consulted about the way the music was produced and presented.

There are a lot of quotes on Twitter by musicians comparing real performance enhanced by communication with real performers versus computer generated music.

It, can be the development of talent that comes with playing instruments and interacting with other talented musicians in real time. That wonderful interaction between talented people can never be replaced no matter how strong the use of computer generated sounds become.

Computer generated sounds are shadows of real live abilities by living creatures.
