Well, as a curmudgeonly old fart, I think there is something to be said about hearing a Steinway being played, as opposed to a Roland merely digitally mimicking the sound. Of course, I read things called books (yes, those rectangular items with paper pages and a cover) rather than Kindles or what-have-you, so I'm practically astoneaged when it comes to technological advances.

Rather sad, in a sense. Sort of like the demise of door-to-door Encyclopedia Britannica salesmen. Dead 
That resonates with me, personally. My late father sold Encyclopedia Britannica door-to-door in the 1950s for a while.

No argument here. I still read books by candlelight.  
Just kidding, but I still dig books instead of tablets.

Wow, PD. At first I thought you were going to say that you're father played grand piano with an orchestra or something. I didn't see the Encyclopedias coming, which my father also sold door to door once.

Cool. My Dad eventually became an English Literature teacher (High school level)

"Oxygène and Zoolook are two very different albums on the sonic map, because as we know, it’s the tool that defines the style and not the other way around."

Jean Michele Jarre, 2012, talking on how the synth models he used defined the music he created (i.e. the string ensembles defined what Oxygene was like and the Fairlight defined what Zoolook was like).


Music follows the technology available at its time.

The way I see it, both complement each other. How can there be technology without the inspiration to create something (in this case art/music)? And how can art/music progress without technology? The real origin of both is human inspiration, creativity and skills, and both art/music and technology help things happen.
