This argument can go into infinity. I mean really. Do you go and show your friends your song you made and say "check it out, yeah I made all the synth sounds and everything myself" Can you honestly say that? How do you feel inside? Whould you say the same thing if the people who designed and built the synth you made them on were standing right next to you, I doubt it. You didn't make that synth, so in actuallity, you didn't make that sound on your own. The people that built the synth didn't make the resistors, hell they probably didn't even make the pcb board. I know you didn't make all the parts in your computer.
My point is, that making art, music or anything has become a colaboration and culmination of a long line of people creating. So I don't feel bad inside what so ever if I improve on what someone has already done. I like to make it my own as much as possible, I'll tweek it or just use a small part of it. Or use it in a way that you wouldn't normally use it. The best things you will see on this planet are things that are the result of people working "together" There's no reason to reinvent the wheel, it's already been done.

the most important thing about stylus RMX that has been overlooked in this conversation is that the groove control midi files can be rearranged into coutless permutations which is pretty much what the pros do with beat slicing and programs like recycle or wavesurgeon.
yeah, you are subjecting yourself to criticism if you use any unaltered sample, be it from some classic vinyl, sample cds, or software collection...
imo its a great tool and engine, end responsbility lies with the user to use it creatively or not..

So in other words you don't spend time creating anything. You rather take what is given to you and play with it. That's also fine. As long as you're satisfied with the "taking what is given to you" part.

This is something that I agree 100% but it's funny how you can notice that it's out of the mind to reinvent the wheel but still you can't notice that Stylus grooves are also invented and that rediscovering them over and over again is nothing better than reinventing the wheel.
If Einstein had a mindset like this he would never chalange the theory of time and space. He would use a Swiss-made-watch and spent his life time taking care of it and keeping it running.
So I guess it's the motive that distinguishes use from abuse. If the motive is to make a track fast, release it and get some fame and money... Stylus is the best beat box available. In some wierd way it reminds me on USA: the best democracy that money can buy!

Did you know that Einstein spent most of his life proving that he was right, and that quantum mechanics was wrong ?
He would have created a better world if he had used it to invent far out audio-tools.

It's not that I don't spend time creating anything. I do spend alot of time creating. I sample my voice, and my friends hand drums, and anything I can find to make an interesting sound from. It's just that what do you consider creation?
I can take one of those loops from Stylus RMX (which in actuality I use it for the single hit samples mostly) and chop it up, change it around filter it and layer it into something completely new. I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you think creation can only start at the smallest possible point then you are mislead (which I don't think that you do or are).

Yes reinventing the wheel is perfectly fine and needs to be done sometimes, Otherwise it would never improve. It's just that you don't need to reinvent it everytime you go get in your car to drive to work.
Just so you know my mind is never "set" i'm always open to the fact that everything I know could be wrong. I just go by my best thoughts, that seem to make the most sense to me, which may make no sense what so ever to someone else.
Regarding motive I also agree with you 100% on this. Your intent will come through in the music you make. I personally want to make music to inspire people, or to take people to higher state of being through trance induced with positive energy. So I would never dream of 1/2 assing anything I do. I am not in this for fame and fortune, I'm in this because I am drawn to it with all my heart and all my being.
thanx for the different perspective  |
