Ironic...
I read an article by Oakenfold for CNN. In it he goes on and rants about CD mixing and computer-based music. He says:
| quote: | | Computers have made it easier for anyone to make a record but that's also brought the quality down. It's great that technology has made music more accessible but the biggest artists will still use traditional studio equipment because you get much better quality. The people I admire -- Liam Howlett of Prodigy, the Chemical Brothers and Orbital -- they are all artists primarily. The technology is secondary. |
LOL, then I read this interview from Liam Howlett and he says
| quote: | I bought myself a laptop, which completely reanimated my creative process because I was able to write anywhere I went... So, to summarize: What got me back on track was A) the laptop, and B) a program that let me feel I’ve gone back and taken all the complication out of writing music.
Yeah, I couldn’t live without it. If Reason hadn’t come along I would probably still be in my studio, depressed, going “aww bloody ‘ell, don’t know what I’m gonna do”, you know?
The technology available now frees the mind in the creative sense; I’m able to think about the actual song a lot more, rather than just going “it’s gonna take me an hour to do this or that”.
