Newsflash for oldfags. A computer is an instrument. It is tuned for sounds, you play the sounds. A lot of them too. If anything electronic producers are more composers than musicians. Also the argument that playing a traditional instrument has more feel is a fat load of shit. You can bend pitch, warp sounds and all that nifty stuff with automation gates and shit. Beyond that a DJ/producer who plays his own tracks adds the personal touch through his mixing. It is a talent to produce a good electronic track. Sure you could teach yourself the skill of how to use the equipment, but odds are you wouldn't sound any good. If it were that easy, you wouldn't have top acts that everyone loves, because it would all be just as good. Same as the millions of guitar players who are nobodies, you need a little something extra to be successful. In summary, it's the exact same shit.
