wrong. it instead calls into question our notions of what constitutes valid music. which is an entirely good thing, in my opinion. one of my all time favorite ambient CDs is "thursday afternoon" by brian eno, which was made by setting up a few tape loops and letting them run for 60 minutes. the fact that he didn't "do anything" for 60 minutes does not reduce or negate the quality of the product. anyway, if you want to see what i have done with rebirth in a more traditional composed context, please check out http://sticky.bud.com/mp3/ note that rebirth is but one ingredient in this track, there are many other synths happening as well. rebirth is swell but it doesn't do chords that well. :) you will need an mpeg3 player. i provide some links on the page. -- Jon Drukman jsd@gamespot.com SpotMedia Communications ...I was an infinitely hot and dense dot...
