The best music is electronic and you can't disprove that. Instruments are dead.

Nobody has ever made something equivalent to this using digital synthesis, therefore instruments are not obsolete

It has the highest potential since you are not limited by physical human skill or locked down to using particular instruments but in practice all the tech tools are used as a crutch more often than not. My other issue with it is lack of organic sound- it takes effort to make it appear analog-ish. There's plenty of electronic music sounding polished however but still it's not enough.

Another problem I see is specifically with electronic music that presents itself as heavy. Very often it brings along harsh noises that end up simply irritating you instead of possessing you with a positive and aggressive spirit.

And no, instruments are not dead. As a producer you may mimic what the instrument does but it's very uncommon for someone do be a master of each one of those used in something like a regular rock band, so a very likely outcome is that you create something that has all the bases covered but doesn't offer anything exceptional in the end.
