An English dad has been left shocked after seeing a live band play electronic music on instruments.
Peter Smith was forced to sit down after witnessing a Royskopp set on Sky Arts late on Sunday evening.
“I was just flicking through the stations hoping to find one of those party girls channels before Top Gear started when I seen it,” claimed Smith, a fifty six year old dairy farmer and dad of four. “It was really shocking because they were playing that ‘boom boom’ music my son Jamie listens to, although instead of playing it out of a machine they were playing it off instruments.”
“Just normal intruments too, like guitars and drums. I had no idea real musicians were able to make those sort of noises,” continued the confused man. “I always thought that kind of electronic music was made from a special rave machine that you just start up and it spits out a collection of random noises that mix together into a song.”
“If I’d have known there was an actual creative process that goes into it’s making I probably wouldn’t have been so dismissive of it in the past,” revealed Smith, who claims to be very openminded when it comes to music as long as it’s Status Quo or something that sounds very similar to Status Quo. “I actually liked a couple of the songs but I got bored of them quite quickly and Clarkson was about to start so I changed the channel.”
“I definitely would listen to it again,” claimed Mr. Smith. “but probably not if there was anyone I know with me, especially not my son, if he knew I’d actually enjoyed a bit of that ravey stuff I’d never hear the end of it.”
Mr. Smith is now believed to be considering going to this year’s Creamfields festival to hear some “boom boom music in its natural environment” under the pretence of going to a dairy farming convention.
