I'll vote for computers/programming, not because I think it's a definitive "right" answer, but because it's worth mentioning. Yea zillions of people have been able to make music without learning complex instrumentation through the medium of computers; professional musicians have been able to play with different sounds and instruments that they don't know how to play per se through electronics.
Not that this is always a good thing by any means, but then, nothing is. And speaking of "other," I was listening to some old Hawkwind this morning while driving to work, and tranced out so hard I almost wrecked the car. The drugs those cats took 30 years ago still have an effect....! |
