Re: Is using Pre-Recorded Loops Cheating?

["Buzap Buzap" <buzap@gmx.net>]

Glad to read all the responses, a lot of people seem to have thoughts on 
this.

I think I'm more relaxed to use pre-recorded material now because I'm 
confident I can create a whole song just by myself on the fly. So I don't 
_have_ to prove this to myself anymore.

So, whatever serves the music is good, I guess.
Authenticity seems to be important. You should feel you're doing the right 
thing, and transport that to the audience.

Then, I've read this story about a beatboxer who received disastrous 
feedback from an audience. Somebody came up to him and said "That was 
lame. What's so special about doodling on some background tracks?" - They 
had no clue he was doing it all by himself!

So, not loosing your audience is also important, I guess. :))

Thanks for your comments.
