Ho ho ho :-)
And this coming from an Industrialist, no less.
The best "Industrial" (quote-unquote) music I've heard in the last 4 years
was easily Carl Craig's live gig at Plantasia in L.A. New Year's Eve 1994.
Completely blew my socks off and left my jawbone dragging on the concrete.
Maybe "Landcruising" wasn't the greatest album ever made but it was
certainly pretty damned decent and his 69 stuff is just awesome. His
DJ Kicks CD is great too, as is the one-sided Bug In The Bassbin remix 12".
I don't want to start a "tastes great"/"less filling" argument here, but I
gotta stand up for my Detroit homie :-)
