Almost all of our contemporary music is a product of "the noise age", the
industrial age... it is electrical based music, it could not never see the
light from an agriculture society... it's uncomfortable to be exploded by a
capitalist... for a worker on a factory , this is really uncomfortable.
Also, it was uncomfortable to be exploded by a feudal lord, or to be an slave
in Rome or in any society...
I think that there is a relationship between the production modal of an age
and the music produced into this age... this is the most noisy age, I think,
because of the production mode: our ears were educated into a city
environment, not into an agriculture one, so maybe we have a tendency to need
louder songs, noisy instruments... here, the electric and distorted guitar is
the Queen, and the cello could be only a pawn.
You haven't heard one of Rasputina's cellos going through guitar-type
processing equipment.
When I was playing professionally, I used to run the output of my
Hammond organ through a guitar volume control pedal, then into an
old-style wahwah pedal, then out to the amp. Combined with the
flexibility of tone adjustment that the Hammond drawbars gave me, I had
tones that were indistinguishable from an electric guitar.
And in terms of dynamic sound, a full pipe organ is far louder than any
other instrument.
