Its probably Ukrainian. Their name is in reference to a Ukrainian nationalist group.

My apologies if I misunderstood you. I do disagree that such things are considered just small details though. In my experience, those details will make or break the entire performance. No one wants to listen to a live performance of what sounds like a midi track.

I do agree western music notation is very flawed, but creating a kind of notation that properly represents those things is nearly impossible. People have been trying for centuries, but so far the current form of notation is the best we can come up with.

Because of its limitations, musicians very often treat sheet music as a general guide, and deviate from it whenever they feel it is necessary.

You can change the timbre of a note through physical instruments too. No good musician views music only through the lens of notes regardless of what instrument they play. If you prefer electronic music, that's fine. But don't act like its somehow superior to other kinds of music.

I can't tell them apart in the way they both seed discord to keep people united behind them. I can't tell them apart in the way they tear apart families with propaganda. In that sense, I'm a centrist.

You can argue one of them does less material damage all day, but they both rely on each other to exist in their current form. They are both predatory institutions that I will not be a part of.

That's how I interpreted it. There are many ways to write that which completely avoid confusion, but they chose the only way that allows that confusion.

It never ceases to amaze me that some of my relatives genuinely believe that's a real thing that happens regularly.

That's because people figured out a formula to make the most widely accessible and profitable music possible. Its a process that isn't exclusive to music or gen z, and I fail to see how its relevant.

They probably act like children because most of them are children.

There are many real arguments you could make against me, but instead you just insult me. You aren't making yourself look very reasonable here.
