In the beginning of the 80s these discussions really started, when i.e. Depeche Mode became a success and had all their drums and some sounds played from a tape recorder while playing live. Many rock artists said they hated artifical music and computers and synthesizers. I remember Johnny Marr,guitarist from The Smiths, said he really HATED synthesizers. Some years later he started a very electronic band called ELECTRONIC (:biggrin1
with Bernard Sumner of New Order(and involving PetShopBoys,Karl Bartos from Kraftwerk etc). And today many rockband uses Synhesizers. (well..back in the 70s both Alice Cooper and The Sweet did!:wink:. David Bowies album LOW is one of the groundbreaking albums which sound has influenced the latter pioneers of electronic music. Japan, Ultravox, Duran Duran,Kraftwerk etc etc)
The people who still today is not open for synthetic sounds i guess is really from the old classical 70s rock school?.
Cheers
