Artists use auto-tune because they lack the vocal control to sing on pitch. It’s like if participants in the Tour De France starting using training wheels on their bikes.</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>The difficult thing about the Tour de France isn’t keeping your balance, it’s the grueling pace and distance. Training wheels wouldn’t be any advantage at all. Similarly, the challenge of singing isn’t pitch. Some of the best and most compelling singers in the world have shaky pitch, and plenty of singers with flawless pitch are still tedious to listen to. Auto-tune is just an effect, like wah-wah pedal or reverb. You still have to make the music.</p>http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/245011873http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/245011873Sun, 15 Nov 2009 13:38:21 -0500<img src="http://12.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksyj2wqFqW1qz6f9yo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://thisisnthappiness.com/post/240498977/t-monk" target="_blank">nevver</a>:</p> <p>Beautiful cover design for a ridiculously great album.</p>http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/240501511http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/240501511Wed, 11 Nov 2009 13:26:26 -0500<img src="http://20.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksxx2kAmLp1qzs3iqo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://uncertaintimes.tumblr.com/post/240157639/robot-heads" target="_blank">uncertaintimes</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lockwasher/sets/72057594079233961/detail/" target="_blank">robot heads</a></p> </blockquote>http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/240334862http://ethanhein.tumblr.com/post/240334862Wed, 11 Nov 2009 10:06:41 -0500<img src="http://19.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kss7tlgsCx1qz7z1zo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://www.somethingchanged.com.au/post/236829519/meet-rep-joe-cao-from-lousiana-hes-the-only" target="_blank">somethingchanged</a>:</p> <blockquote> <blockquote> <p>Meet Rep.
