I was just responding to what I read in the post, I'm sorry if I ended up
labelling you. The part of your post below was what made me think you
were comparing:

It's fair enough to say you don't like the 12", but I don't think this music
deserves deep criticism unless it really is rubbish, which it isn't. Rather
than relate the 12" to other works by Rob and Sean, I can relate the
music to a 'feel' that their music gives me. I can sort of imagine how
they are thinking from listening to their music, and "Mag" fits perfectly into
this idea.
