Q: Why do you think you get so much flack when you answer questions about music theory? I think maybe some people are very anti-theory because they see it as being "The Rulebook" or "The Definitive Guide of How to Make Music" and you MUST follow these strict rules to be a 'serious musician'?.. But really, there are no 'rules' in theory...
A: i feel like i keep trying to explain that to people over and over again
