First and foremost, I must apologise for my language in my previous post.
It's all too easy sometimes to forget when online that I am responding to a
large group of people and not just thinking out loud.

It occurs to me all the time. However, not when it's the people who talk
about how they could do the exact same thing as RDJ or Autechre or whomever
with the same equipment (see the original post Aaron D. Meyers was replying
to)- because they look only at the technical aspect of making music, not the
soul, not doing it for the love of making music. As though technical skill
is all it takes (which it is not- look at Steve Vai or Joe Satriani.
Technically brilliant, musically vapid.)

None, and I don't claim to be able to do anything like the aforementioned
artists. I'm an elitist in other ways having nothing to do with making music
or the discussions on this list (of course, there are probably now a few
list members who would disagree with me after my post).
