and they aren't harder to find, 'valhalla'! how can that be, with more and more tools for synthesis and effects? it's absurd.

Ah, Jan my dear foe. We meet again...
Regarding your misreadings of my posts above, the truth is I don't mind your attempts to insult and rile me, because ultimately I'm entitled to my genuinely-held opinion, as unfashionable as that may be.
I honestly don't think there are any new sounds.
And I don't need to believe that there are any new sounds in order for me to continue making the new music for me that I enjoy.
Perhaps that line of argument is beyond you, your unnecessary insults ('pompous' for me; 'absurd' for Sean Costello's very reasonable viewpoint) and your misinterpretations above, Jan?
I never said 'new to YOU'.jancivil wrote: your pompous 'new to YOU' remarks
I said 'new to us'. Can you see the clear difference in those two remarks, Jan? (Perhaps a better question is: do you want to see the clear difference...).
And if you're going to start throwing insults around and calling someone 'pompous' for no good reason, at least don't make up quotes, attribute it to that person and then insult them for your own made-up quote.
It doesn't make you look fair or accurate, does it?
Moreover, if anyone wants to take a look at your whole KVR history, they'll see numerous insults and misreadings by you of other people's posts - perhaps because you don't have the tolerance, willingness or patience to listen to other people's views?
On the other hand, most people here at KVR (like Sean and Ron, for instance) know how to pleasantly disagree with other people's views in a polite and respectful manner.
Ultimately despite what you (Jan) and I, and everyone else might write about here at KVR, these are just small words - they don't do the process of describing musical inspiration justice, and they're inferior compared to the mesmerising, revelatory power at our fingertips when we actually make music.
It puts your attempts to misquote, insult and rile people into perspective, Jan.
Good luck with your struggle to make music Mr Civil, no matter how uncivilly you try to express yourself here at KVR.
ps - excellent quote Shabdahbriah.
