Thank god...a new either/or to kick around. Bye bye Laurel/Yanni, hello visceral/cerebral.
Cerebral versus Visceral?
Generally // Generically 'framed' as Musical vs. Accurate.
I have issue with the above two words being separated as I find that to be musical there must be accuracy or preferably (to me) 'realism.' Further, I believe that both 'words' have been appropriated and attributed with connotations by respective 'camps' and that 'musical / accurate' is generally discussed as being on a continuum or sliding scale with each on polar ends.
Below is a link to a Steve Guttenberg video on the this topic. I like his choice of 'cerebral' vs. 'visceral.'
He discusses this from a "speaker" perspective...I see it as a SYSTEM result.
Thoughts and Reaction?
