No. Tell your friend to listen closely. If Fruity Loops can make those beats everyone should stop making music right now, cause 6ie.cr is one of the strictest track you'll find on Draft.

making a good one is hard; there are MIT graduate courses on that topic alone. Here's one with a great name.
Word to them for bitching about the colloquial usage of 'random'.

to 'generate' random numbers, isn't that an oxymoron anyways. how could you generate something random?

hahaha yeah.
Interestingly, a lot of the really hard core random number systems use an 'entropy pool'; they seed random numbers (that's just _seeding_; the algorithm is whole 'nother ball game) with things like events their computers observe, or radioactive decay (!!!), etc.
most people say PRNG, pseudorandom number generator.
the MIT course is pseudorandom number generation, not random numbers.

Something that is complex and well crafted is great for someone who gets bored easily. For instance I get much more replay value from xmd5a than, say, sawI tracks.

Why would they use FLP when they have Kyma?
That is what they use for most of their music...
It can be done in FLP... but they are using generative software.
