Jerome is not being a "hater" as you put it....
he is expressing an opinion about those 'copy and paste' guys who have no musical expertise other than pressing buttons on a computer....
whose who have no musical talent with intruments and composing,which incidently, is what making music is supposed to be about....
theres some questions you need to ask yourself....
will these remix-guys still be doing what theyre doing in fifty years time?
will their music(sounds) stand the test of time and influence others to pick up instruments decades down the track?
i suspect the answer to the two questions above would be "no",
theres no new musical ideas happening here, nothing is being created,just twisted around and turned inside out....
do you think the likes of Paul McCartney would still be selling-out stadiums at 73 if he had simply remixed "yesterday" over and over again for the last 50yrs???
