Today, it’s very tempting to create songs by cutting and pasting in the studio.
Meaning of the quote
The quote suggests that modern music-making has become too easy. Instead of putting in the hard work to write and perform songs, some musicians now just combine small parts of other songs in the recording studio. This can make music feel less authentic and less special. The quote suggests that the easy way of "cutting and pasting" isn't the best approach for creating truly great music.
