No no no no. Actual wave form generation tools I'm talking about. More common than you think, but certainly not used in popcul music....because people still generally think of as musical tertain tonal content....
I consider anything without an harmonic system not music. I know the Mars Volta et al freaks out there will bristle at this.
In any case, really, if you aren't playing electric guitar, electric bass guitar, or drums, you're playing an out of style instrument.
Consider it high comedy....sincere tragedy....whatever...don't take it personally.
