why should you have to maunually do anything?

why even bother taking yer shot off the t in golf, why not just stick the ball in the whole.

why have goalkeepers in footy, in fact why not just do away from the whole 2 teams and just have someone kick a ball over an empty goal all the time.

or get racing cars on tracks so you dont need drivers..

its all about the sport/art/whatever..........


im sure someone could write a script that would write a tune for you using random samples and random patterns but would that be any good.

what about using a cheat on a computa game so you can complete the level no sweat.....fun time ahead for som
Why should we have to care about something that doesnt effect the content of the music you are playing?? Just to make thongs hard for yourself? Just to look cool infront of your mates? To be "better" than someone at something??

Id rather concentrate on making the mix different, being able to add in as many different sources as i can to make the music different and original. I like to hear new music. I like to hear new music changed "live", but most people seam to think that this just means pulling off a perfect mix.

Is beatmatching that hard really? No, all it does is distracts from the actual music. Yes, it can be fun, but to be honest, im sick of it. It hinders me in producing something new and original.

Dont get me wrong, i love decks. But i use them for a different purpose. I am a turntablist. I have perfomed in the DMC championships. That shit is hard to learn, and that is using the deck as a musical instrument. Beat matching 2 techno records is not. Its not hard, its not clever, and its certainly not original.
