Technology killed the good music star
About a week ago, I was out for a meander and got to wondering if there was anything technology has not improved over the past century, or even the past few decades. It didn’t take long to think of the self-evident answer: music.
Sure, technology has produced better instruments and considerably better production tools. It has doubtlessly also eased the act of learning how to make music. But has it had any effect on the one thing that is really needed to produce good music: forte? Of course not. In many ways, those improved production tools have done the opposite – they’ve made it much easier for untalented people to succeed a do over music.
That’s not necessarily a bad thing. After all, many ordinary people have the desire to express themselves through music, but historically they’ve lacked the customary tools to do so. However, computers, digital instruments and even iPad apps now make it possible for anyone to write and record songs. There are millions of people out there doing fitting that, then sharing their creations on YouTube and elsewhere. For the most part, it’s horrible stuff but at least people are finding an outlet.
