Anyway, right, real reason I started this thread...

I saw Wolfgang Flur (who's now know as Yamo) from Kraftwerk last year in Bristol, whilst it was great listening to him do a reading/talk about his time in Kraftwerk, the music he produces now is really generic, and sure enough the set he played after the speech was a typical laptop affair and he was clearly shown how to do showboating (much dad dance). Now I know Wolfgang was mearly a percussionist in the band (not to discredit him as a member of it) and Kraftwerk made pop music. That gig coupled with seeing Chris Leibing for the second time doing his car parcel shelf nodding dog impression and probably countless other artists I've gone to seen in recent years, has tarnished something for me. They've all been a part of something I've respected and to see them play to crowds which TBH couldn't care less whatever they're listening to/paid to see, and the artist play accordingly to that, is slightly disheartening.

There was once a time when electronic music was exotic, faux pas and cutting edge (way before "Techno"), why should it lose this?

Why has it become normal for artists to play really dumbed down music and pretend orchestrate the sound with bodily movements?

And more importantly why do the general public want and accept this???


And I'm not ****ing confused.whatever, **** television to.
