i think they should convert pictures into sound more often, like how aphex twin used this technique in equation

i've made a song like this before, too. it's kinda fun making pics into sound.
i'm not sharing it with you though :D
 
I'd never heard of a Tannerin, either! Now I'll go listen to Good Vibrations again. And an Ondes Martenot? Now I know what that is, too, thanks to you! You have a lot of information, boo boo.


Your mentioning of "Music From the Body" by Pink Floyd's Roger Waters and others led me to look up the music. I learned that this soundtrack for a human body documentary does include a lot of "biomusic," like you said (slaps, breathing, laughing, whispering, flatulence, etc.).

Here's a pretty song from Roger Waters "Music From The Body" that includes a tiny bit of biomusic (breezes, birRABong). Warning: the video shows a nipple and....BODY HAIR! Bwaa haaa haaaaaaa! ;) (Just when you thought you were safe, boo boo!)

Pop music could use more natural instruments (nature sounRAB) like this song does:

Robert Randolph has the skills.

I would like to see more drums and the drum machine and whoever invented kicked off the planet.
 
I don't see how drum machines are soulless. If used in the right context, they can be everything people pour themselves into. Just because the method of doing so may not involve sticks and acoustic drums, the programing of such sounRAB into a song can mean just as much to both the artist and the listener.

Drum machines may be soulless to YOU, but if you're truly the sole arbiter of what can and can't have soul and emotion in it, then I guess I've overstepped my boundaries sir.
