[Mrs. Don-o]

I think I catch what you're saying. All the different styles are engaging even when they're a botheration.

Music moves so many parts at once, different layers of brain and neural net I suppose, but also the beat of the heart, sweat and memory, smells --- could be tobacco or lavender ---the heat that comes up from the belly. All these cultures have all these quirky kinds of music, but they all have music.

I would be afraid of a world where all the music comes from AI. I would rather hear a squeaky little girl with an off-pitch banjo, than all the algorithm-produced perfection which, seems to me, comes from the deceiver and the seducer.

I’m with you. My favorite band is The Who...their singer, Roger Daltry, was quoted as saying “give me a bum note and a bead of sweat.”
