    honestly as a 20yr old idk why but this kind of tech impresses me so much more than newer tech i mean HOW THE HELL did they build this is 1920!!!! its just crazy to me and so impressive to see all the mechanics working!!!! so much thought love and care went into these machines and the music at the same time!! love it!

      If I can relate to something this is it. Our devices are capable of so much now, but there's something so nostalgic and impressive about older stuff to me, like old computers and old games. Crash Bandicoot 1 (the original '96 ps1 game) had so many tricks up its sleeve to achieve Crash's cartoony animations. There's an entire 30:00 episode all about the details of this on Ars Technica featuring original engineer Andy Gavin.

      One reason I feel just like you do is that the sound and depth of these old mechanical, acoustic machines cannot honestly be reproduced electronically. Your ear tells you this.

      I will add that pop music since the 1980's has been lacklustre in comparison to the main hook of this song. The Caretaker has influenced so many people to the point where I hope pieces like this end up making an impact on the future composers to come.
