twould seem the world has got what i might term
"instant coffee" syndrome.
i'll help anyone ..i really will.

but just this week i'm talkin to a muso i met when i was out n about...
who is ranting bout daw problem stuff
n it was obvious ..twas in the blinkin manual.
i'm really worried that the next generation brought up on guitar hero n
pushing plastic buttons , well...where will all the great true future musicians come from ??
i find with this new generation coming up,....often the following.
1. they want instant hits..they think get the recording gear on friday n be as big as britney by monday.
life aint like that and i try to explain gently that songs are often long gut wrenching work.
2. they couldnt be bothered to even learn the basics of midi or read a midi book.
or read a manual that comes with the gear thery buy.
or understand setting midi channels correctly , yet good ole mum n dad
bought them a 3k synth whose manual they havent even bothered to read. sheeesh.
if someone had bought me a 3k synth i'd be all over the manual in an instant.
3. they buy a slew of gear costing thousands n try n copy big studios without realiseing that
the old carmudgeon AE pro's that built those studios put in their time and graft.
and worked blinkin hard. or lets say..where will the talent of the funk brothers come from ??

yes folks i call it instant coffee syndrome.
this new young generation coming up that i talk to seem to want ..
instant hits, instant speed dateing , instant marriage, instant divorces, instant solutions,
instant studios...but do people wanna put the work into their songs or marriage or relationships ??
hit me with your thoughts.
