SummaryI really enjoyed this project. It has allowed myself to learn some very interesting things about music that I thought were quite surprising. I think there is a huge difference between music back then and the music today. Songs that were made in the 1970s or 80s consisted of many real instruments played by real people. Nowadays, many artists use computers to generate music. Sometimes, they even use computers to completely change their voice. Musicians back then certainly didn’t do that. Despite the large difference between these two generations of music, I love them both and I am glad I got to expand my taste in music.
