			I just found this whilst drunk, I just had an argument with a close mate who told me electronic music is easy. (the usual argument... no emotion... pressing buttons.. etc.. etc.) Although I'm angry and open minded, I feel it's about time we should just get on our 'high horse' about this. I learnt Guitar, Trumpet and Piano to a competent level in about 2-3 years... I've been spending about the same time on electronic music and I don't feel I'm anywhere near touching the sound I hear from my peers! People that think it's easy, literally know nothing about what goes into producing a track. (this is the point where you reel off countless 'nerdy' technical terms in the production process)... but I've found this makes people even more ignorant and stubborn. However I've found it's pointless arguing with these kind of music fans because they have no reference point. (If they can't see it. it isn't really happening!)

All you can really do is enjoy and get along with everyone else who gets the tiny intricacies into making a good electronic track (be it jump-up and in your face... or a deep late night thoughtful tune.)

At the end of the day though, each to their own and all that. I'm just glad I've acquired the taste of a wide variety of music... more enjoyment for me! 

Peace out... (Keeps slaving over those  oscillators, filters, envelopes, side-chaains, builds, drops, pads, delays, automations, cut-offs, pans, EQ's, basses.. etc.....etc..) 

Ps. Sorry for the drunk non-sensical rant, although it has helped a lot!

			So true. I just had a discussion with my friend who is a rock music fanatic.  We started talking about music. He had that exact impression, that electronic music was made by pressing a button. I eventually convinced him otherwise, but there are so many people out there who still have this impression. Playing an instrument is definitely a craft, but aren't music composition, sound engineering, and creativity also crafts? Some people just don't understand that. 

Most people don't get the distinction between music made BY a computer and music made ON a computer.
