Zuki, I agree...make music how you can...and, I might add, try not let narrow-minded critics keep you from doing what you love and from expressing yourself musically, no matter what form of expression you choose.
If not for the music creators and musicians that were blessed with
open minds, we'd still be listening to early "rock" music, which involved hitting a rock with a stick.

You know, Zuki, in my line of work, I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to play (and perform with) the very latest gear, meet all kinds of musicians from pro to amateur, novice to advanced,
learn and appreciate new (some based on older ideas too) forms and methods of music production and/or entertainment...and get paid for it.
Not a bad deal.

PS...Do you miss performing?
