Chas,
Most of what we, over here at this "ARRANGER" forum play, comes from the brains of very technical but highly talented people. If they focused on playing only, none of this would be so.
Music is changing and as of late electronics plays a HUGE role in just about EVERYTHING we listen to music wise. And programming makes for a huge part of this.

MUSIC, at it's essence, is NOT changing. Only the methods we use to physically and audibly recreate what is going on in our brain has changed. As with most things affected by technology, these methods have evolved but the music itself begins and ends in the brain. Technology allows us to share it with others.
