A Chicago woman has been charged with beating her husband to death with his guitar collection. At her hearing in front of the judge, he asked her, "First time offender?" She replied, "No, first a Gibson then a Fender."
Electronic "music" is terrible. The rhythm is too regular, there's no legato or rubato, no tremolo or vibrato. Or if there are any of those subtle variations in tone, pitch or rhythm that allow human musicians to interpret and add personal statements to the music, those variations are mechanistic regular as well.
But don't believe me, read David Johanssen's book How Music Works.
