(I guess is because ear training and singing are only related to traditional music. It's pretty much useless if you're going to work with something atonal, pure-sound based, aleatory, etc etc.)
I agree, I don't know where the ear training thing came from


I'll just say it again, you need to know what you want when you're writing, and you really only get that with "practice"
