oh sure, and no harm done (I used /tmp for the occasion :-)). it is just me
trying to avoid situations where it is easy to shoot myself in the foot. does
make me wonder about the 99% though.. ;-)

Doesn't the Geneva convention forbid such music?
Give me 10 minutes of such a "soundscape", and I'll solve the washing-up
problem by throwing dishes at the speakers.

only if shackled or otherwise constrained from physical movement. :-)
put index + middle finger of one hand on the wrist of the other. do you feel a
pulse?! ;-)

</grin>
(addressing Stephen here, too)
in this video, from last evening, scenes like ca 19 minutes in show that it is
possible to enjoy "soundscapes", for some. ;-) admitted, the crowd is not as
as large as, say, when the Rolling Stones play -- all 370 years of them. :-)

Wow, he must be exhausted after 2 hr 20 minutes of twiddling knobs.
That mask says "I'm a professional" :)
I'm ok with not "getting" the music, after all, my parents didn't "get"
Emerson Lake and Palmer, Yes, Zep, Genesis, etc., and their parents
didn't get Buddy Holly and Elvis. But I don't like that knob twiddling
passes as having talent. You don't even have to have natural rhythm nor
practice to be a master DJ. (Perhaps a basic understanding of music
theory, I-IV-I-V-I sort of thing)
It is interesting how music has simultaneously devolved in two camps;
rap on one side, and euro-trance on the other.

That's when I'll have run out of cutlery and cups for ammo ;)

:-) switching to alter ego? fwiw, I like the mask's design.

</shrug> I'm not a musician, don't play an instrument, just a consumer.
playing piano is "just" depressing keys. ;-) I think it's a skill one has to
work to acquire, in the same way as a traditional instrument(s).

but surely, if a DJ couldn't "hear" sounds + rhythms in their head, all the
technology wouldn't make any difference. (surmising :-))

and nowhere to go for ABBA fans.. ;-)
I struggle to "classify" music into genres, other than broad categories; where
does Rap end + Hip-Hop begin?
fancy posting a link to one of your "like"s?

I'm not seeing (hearing?) it. A computer is doing 99% of the work
already. I see no issue with a computer doing the last 1%.

I am impressed by looping. Knob twiddling with talent :)

Big Zappa fan (apparently as a Czech, this is in my DNA)
Ruth Underwood on vibes is amazing:
Frank Zappa - Inca Roads

Pink Floyd, Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a symphony.
Comfortably Numb has two of the greatest guitar solos in one song.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTj79x-tlWQ
I like odd time signatures. I've tried to write in 5, I haven't been
able to. :(
