To me art, in this case music,, should tell and say something, and at some point just suggest and stay ambiguous or out of the way, so the listener can put himself in there, and so the music speaks not just to the listener, but also speaks of the listener. Analog its better in that, it feels the gaps with ambiguous and inspiring usical glue, while digital does it with information.
