Music is disposable because of the pace of change.

Well, that was a big fuck-up!

Start again:

Editor of music technology mag Sound on Sound rants that technology is moving too fast. No wonder then, he says, that today's music is so disposable.

I don't agree, but what do you thin

Aaarrgh!

What do YOU think?

haha this is the opposite of the other question yesterday. what if music is disposable because it is made of PLASTIC?

It's the listeners who get more disposable, music stays the same

The music isn't disposable just because the technology is... Unless the music is created by technology instead of by humans/souls. i.e. drum machines, harmonizers, sequencers, ... all sound dated & therefore disposable. But just because the MFX-64000 Wonderstudio will be replaced in a year by the MFZ-99000 Wonderstudio - doesn't mean that the new Coldplay record will be forgotten by then. (wink wink)

music created by technology and not humans/souls?

sounds great, where can i hear some? i've just been stuck with humans using technology to create music all this time...

Touche' (douchebag ... ;-) sorry - the words just fit together.)

I'm with Bluski.

Of course, my dad reckons music is created by a man in a wig drawing little pictures of peas carrying flags on something called 'music manuscript paper.'

My axeman cousin reckons it's created by some blokes with long hair hanging out in a studio with several guitars and 'jamming.'

My clubbing cousin reckon it's created by a guy in his back bedroom with a computer sticking together bits of previous records.

They are all organising bits of noise ('notes,' 'chords,' 'vocals,' etc.). How they do it is completely irrelevant and of no bearing to either my interest in it or its quality.
