of course not. and don't think anybody is really saying that, once again.
people are saying "i like the contrabass" not "the contrabass is the
ultimate instrument and always will be, never to be replaced by anything
of any sort".

oh the hypocrisy! 

there are only so many hours in the day bro. i personally don't have time
to learn C++ so i can satisfy your requirements of being on the true
vanguard. until then i'll carry on making music that's interesting to me
and not worry about if it's "breaking tradition". if it does, great. if
it doesn't, whatever.
