This may not feature the clarinet you seek. But it's still pretty good.
So is the somewhat excessive repetiveness of the music just a feature of
the limited capabilities of the guitar playings. Although, even the
drum is just playing a simple pattern over and over again.
I don't know. I just found it mildly enjoyable. I certainly enjoyed
this more than the clarinet playing Flight of the Bumblebee a million
times too fast without any heart.
It may be midi-syndrome. People who don't play an instrument tend to do
a poor job of making tracks for them, drums especially.
I don't know about that, but maybe not playing an instrument allows me
to enjoy it more than if I did. I can't say that I want to keep on
hearing it over and over. But I did enjoy it enough to listen a second
time.
I admit that it certainly has a long way to go before it even comes
close to the caliber of a regular human band. Personally, I can't get
enough of this one:

Just the music track alone is kinda simple, even comical. But combined
with the video, it's quite amusing. It was designed to kinda show the
main things in Lithuania. They love basketball and monster trucks,
among other things.
I became pen pals with someone in Lithuania and she pointed me to the video.

My feeling has always been that most everything in nature has its pros
and cons. Too much of these things can be bad, while too little just as
bad. The trick is finding the balance.
As for relevancy, I balance many Linux systems with one Windows system
for my daily computer needs. :)
