LOL!
seriously though, I think Eno is generalizing way too much, however;
it's nice to hear a dismissal of electronic music from the completely
polar opposite of the tired "but it's not live" or "it's all just
computers."
At least Eno understands that it is simply another tool, like a flute or
timpani.
"attend to details at an infinitely fine level whilst ignoring the
macro" I think is a fairly decent argument about any problem that
gearhead types can develop, same can be said for music fashionistas with
their squaking guitars. Personally, all my favortie records manage to
completely transcend my very well-school, technical brain and simply
give me a macroscopic view of the artist's vision. BOC or Scott Heren's
work or maurmari rarely make me think of computers, quite the opposite.
sorry Eno.
