@Spawnling What you fail to understand is that modern Miku (who, let's be real, carries vocaloid) is really just a pale imitation of digitizing voices. I think the problem is that you've already got a better market for that in just singing + recording and digital music software + autotune or simply sampling and tuning to the pitch you want. Maybe we'll see mainstream vocaloid use as pop music moves further and further away from lyrical content and more ethereal, vapid female lyrics as we're seeing in the modern day-- but to be completely honest, music made on computers, with beats that might be lazily reselling the bast with that same POP fucking 4 FUCKING 4 TIME SIGNATURE AND THAT SAME BREAK DRUM fucking goddamn consumerist soulless mall drone made to ease the trials of living in a dystopia for the proles UGH.
Like I love production (El-P, Ariel Pink, J-Dilla, FKA Twigs, Madlib, Tokimonsta, etc. that's 10/10 production-- and I can appreciate the music without human vocals, but some work meant to it, I guess I might be a sheep for believing some of it is trying to portray some feeling besides *CONSUME*) it's one thing to put work into the creation of digital music that takes inspiration from the past (as music/art/existence does) but it's another to SOULLESSLY RESELL IT AND NOW COMPLETELY REMOVE THE *ONE* HUMAN ELEMENT IT WOULD HAVE POSSESSED. by replacing that voice with HATSUNE 'Have some fun with' MIKU
tl;dr I think vocaloid going mainstream might have negative connotations about the human condition as it relates to meaning intended behind music and art.
I don't know who cares
Also maybe you could call disCO DEAD IF GENRES OF MUSIC COULD DIE BUT THEY CANT DISCO WILL NEVER DIE SO LONG AS YOU CAN APPRECIATE THE MUSIC AND THE CULTURE BEHIND IT-- THAT WONT EVER STOP,
YOU CAN'T KILL THE SOUL, YOU CAN'T KILL THE FUNK YOU CAN'T KILL THE MUSIC ITS OUR DEAD HOMIES SPEAKING THROUGH US MUSICALLY@Piercing LightI can respect that
