Electronic Music 411 - Giant Steps Robot - Coltrane, Robotics, Japan

Crazy.

This is why I always played ballads when I played sax.

Could never play the fast runs all that well...even after getting through two books of charlie parker solos.

You know, that solo taken out of its harmonic context sounds deranged.

pawel - thats the first time I agreed with anything you said
very true word
if they used funding for spielerei like this, thats a sad thing
and indeed - much more interesting would be if existing instruments would get expanded, not only for people with disabilities, but just for having a few extra tones, new methods and such

why not? Almost everything else has been outsourced these days.

I wouldn't be suprised. I look at many modern day commercial groups as robots anyway...
programmed by the companies. Robots would have more feeling and less pitch correction.
