Secrecy/Ableton/Loops/Death/Emotion/Techno
Secrecy?
Irrelevant, the music is paramount, all other considerations are superfluous.
Ableton?
A fantastic tool for the creative mind, a loop churner for the clones.
Loops?
As valid as any other sound or instrument when used creatively, nearly all music is loop based, even rock. Verse chorus verse chorus etc, however, it`s all about perception.
Death?
The great unknown, nothing to be scared of. Be more scared of pain.
Emotion?
What is music without it? For me, pointless, unless I can feel some element of the creator in the music, then the music just sounds purely mechanical, in a bad way.
Emotion does not necessarily mean love and fluff. There are many emotions to explore.
Techno?
Many things to many people. Ambiguous term that is open to your own interpretation.
For me techno is electronic music, utilising the latest technology to create fresh, explorative music. It also means to me, tribal electronics.
Happy new year from one nerd to another.
