I'm starting from the viewpoint that the whole point of music is observing the performer do it.
in contrast, the whole point of paiting or a sculping is the final completed artifact.
What I'm trying to get at, is how recording technology "defeats" the purpose of music as its performace; and so, irremediably splits it from it's source (its origin, the composition of the music). I suppose improvisation remains; but highly constrained within prearranged structures (a la "AB[improvisatino goes HERE]C") like in jazz.
I do not understand how hyperpop nor DnB are supposed to be a response to what I'm trying to get at (then again, I'm just now barely conveying my point... I hope.)
