OK OK OK...
I read enough in:re the star wars/spooky/white label/byzar stuff that I *MUST*
respond. This should be the final word as I sent those 12"s out personally.
It is a white label only,unsold, undistributed ,2 sided, 2 songed, no
artwork, plain jacket
by the group Byzar (not Byzar 5, though I think the label *did* say that
for some reason).
Byzar are an Asphodel group, with a debut LP on the way! Please check out
our website
for information on upcoming releases. (see below for that)
This 12" is severely limited and THERE ARE NO MORE AVAILABLE. I have sent
them out to various
people worldwide. Because of the samples, this will never be officially
released.
Whatever Spooky played at Cloudwatch was *that* , whether he mixed other
things is heresay...I was'nt there.
More likely than not, it was this piece, alone as it has its own beats.
And as far as the whole irony discussion, some people like it, some people
don't. I try not to impose
the whole "this is right" "this is cool" this is bad" this is poo poo" into
the opinion pool. I respect the critical opinions
of others as long as they are somewhat fair in perspective and as long as
people are willing to check out both sides
of any issue. Too often on this list (as with life), people speak out,
don't back up their opinions and then drivel out
STUPID POINTLESS PERSONAL diatribe against people whose opinions they won't
realy check out in full view.
Its amusing how often on this list, participants will assert their opinions
as being absolute truth.
Props to Chris Fahey for saying how much he hates the irony thing and props
to whoever else loves the irony trip.
Props to listers that welcome discourse and discussion. Its rare around here.
IMHO. Its funny, after being in the net/web/online community for a few
years now,
I only recently found out what IMHO and IMO *mean*. I try to avoid it's
usage as it seems kind of a crutch.
Consider: assuming that you are humble (when stating IMHO), is'nt
everything that you say and write in your opinion?
So often, people write " Aphex Twin, FAX, Marylyn Manson ( or other topics
that *occasionally* make it to IDM) ...IMHO made a great LP or video or
interview."
Isn't your opinion strong enough to stand on its own 2 feet without the tag?
IMO, thats all.
