That's kind of showing a lack of imagination on your part rather than a failure of the world to invent something to excite you.

Electronic music and manipulation is not a bad thing. But it is not the ultimate new frontier in music. Flourescent light is cheaper but bothers the eyes. The same way computer monitors bother eyes the way paper does not. Sometimes messing with different parameters that have been staples through centuries isn't innovative just excessive.

New and exciting music will always stream forth. New players will come on the scene that will see and arrange things in an entirely new way. Yoyo ma is one of the most innovative musicians on the planet - bar none. Look at the ancient instrument he plays.

Music is more than adjusting parameters. It is emotion and communication on the most basic level. Acoustic or electronic instruments can produce these effects depending on what the artist is trying to convey. But to claim that only innovation can come from a manipulation from a single parameter of music among an entire array is very close minded and ignores the entire history of music. Four strings on wood continues to find new outlets and massive originality thousands of years after it is invented.

It is never the short coming of the instrument but the person using it.
