Thats a matter of opinion.. If you want to make tunes that sound like everbody
elses then use the same tools as everybody else.  I often think that the tail
wags the dog when it comes to music technology, and a repetitive beat and
squelchy lead line simply show's the paucity of imagination in the 21st
century.
