A New Age of Music

The creation of electronic music is a very different approach to making a lot of interesting new sounds. Almost any noise or random sounds around the world can be used in a music composition. Sampling sounds rather than just creating music from instruments seems fun and easy because you don't really have to learn how to play and read notes for the instrument. Instead of using a real guitar, nowadays people can play an electronic guitar on their computers or laptops. This is very useful because learning how to play the strings and putting the music together is a lot easier and more convenient. Laptops are light and portable and easier to bring to places for music entertainment rather than hauling huge equipment, instruments, etc. There are still several talented people who know how to play regular acoustic music, instruments, etc. But now there is a growing amount of people who can easily use software like Garageband to create their own music. You don't even have to be a huge music professional to make music, to cut, to slice, and remix music. Just having some computer skills and creativity can make anyone a music artist.
