there's nothing wrong with scat (the singing style)

there's everything wrong with scat (the porn / fetish style).


as far as using it with modern styles go, why not? by all means do it up, if it's something you like doing there's no reason it can't be incorporated into whatever style pleases your ears. though i disagree with your idea that music changes very fast, the commercial targets might change (or rehash two generations ago) but then you really need to decide whether you're making music as a form of artistic impression or a product.
