Count me in as a third! Looks as though theirs a bit of hope in
the UVic csc department. :)
I would definatley suggest dropping some Autechre into a good
techno set... I find they're some of my favorite records to dj with. The
way their beats seem to go everywhere BUT on the 1/4 note is great when
mixed with a standard 4/4 fare, the beats jsut seem to wrap themselves
around one another...(fav. autechre mix: 3mb w/Jaun Atkins "Die Kosmischien
kurie" to Autechre's "Crystal" on AI1...sends shivers down me spine...)

YESYESYESYESYES!!! BLEW MY MIND!!! I deffinatley knew taking the trip
down to San Fran was a good idea when I saw the poster for this...
The thing I find about a good idm artist is the way that they seem to
have mastered the ability to use our favorite silver boxes to translate
their thoughts directley into sound, giving us what I think can be a window
into their soul...If that's the case then after seeing the NASA tour I
think that RDJ needs a bit of help :) (though I hope he doesn't get
any...hmmm lithium inspired idm????) Yup, that night was mad, Vapourspace
rocked too...

When they hear of the way,
The Highest minds practice it;
The average minds think about it
And try it now and then;
The lowest minds laugh at it.
If they did not laugh at it,
It would not be the way.
