I don't see how drum machines are soulless. If used in the right context, they can be everything people pour themselves into. Just because the method of doing so may not involve sticks and acoustic drums, the programing of such sounds into a song can mean just as much to both the artist and the listener.

Drum machines may be soulless to YOU, but if you're truly the sole arbiter of what can and can't have soul and emotion in it, then I guess I've overstepped my boundaries sir.
