Changing Things















Today I used a web editor to edit songs by THE BETA BAND to make them sound how I want them to.

This raises moral concern. Should art be left untouched and how the artist intended it? Or is it our right, as consumers, to meddle until we are pleased.

Two songs come to mind which require editing before they are deemed listen-able:

1) Dr Baker - The Beta Band
2) Transatlantic Drawl - Radiohead

Both of these feature pointless sections which the songs could do without. I bid you to edit. I bid you to go through your collection and make things sound and look how YOU want them. Forget the "artist" .
