I know I'm going to seem like a right moaning bastard but I think some people (especially newbies to the list) should read this.

No disrespect to you phil, but it is possible to have more than one debate on the list. I think many of us here agree that the IDM list is changing for the worse as time progresses, and it was for this reason that our Warp connection (greg) has been lost. No more Warp info posts. Phil's post was just the sort of thing that this list is about, you know - discussion of music, but can you imagine ALL the posts being about vinyl vs cd? That thread was interesting the first time I read it, but now after 2 and a half years of reading it I'm getting pretty sick of it. And then somebody apologises for posting something that isn't vinyl vs bloody cd! Everybody is entitled to start whatever thread they want, but please have respect for other people on the list and realise when the thread has been taken too far. I love moaning ;-) -Ed (putting on his asbestos suit) P.S. why the hell is the Drexciya 2XCD such shit quality? It sounds like they threw the whole thing together by dubbing it off a cheap record player, and Wavejumper actually jumps! P.P.S. Lunatic Harness is fantastic. I'd love to know why he called one of the tracks "London".
