i still can't make out what you mean

is that so? EVEN funk players? on beat.. did you grow up listening to
marching bands or something?

oh RIIIGHT so a 'funky' beat is just a regular beat with some shuffle.. my
casio vl-tone is great, it has a 'waltz' rhythm, a 'disco' rhythm and quite
a few others. when i want something 'lively' i pick a disco rhythm and
when i want something 'chilled out' i might have rhumba, or waltz if i'm in
an experimental mood
in other words (just to state the obvious to humourless americans) the
concepts of 16ths, 32nds, and 'funk' only apply in the cheesy world of midi
files, elevator muzak and musical car-horns. WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
HERE IS EXPERIMENTAL MUSIC which does not have any dos or donts, no
mathematical guidelines to decide what is correct rhythm and what is
'sloppy'. if rdj's particular form of rhythm programming cannot compute
with you, or loud 'shrieks' hurt your poor little head, it's nobody's fault
but your own

i can't even begin to find words to describe the feeling of disdain i feel
at the moment for the future of the human race. i weep openly at the
thought of your offspring

right well in that case shut up, cos it's patently obvious that you haven't
got a clue

three questions:
HOW can you go through your life with this legoland view of music?
why aren't people on the list attacking the utter bollocks being spouted by
this madman?
cheerio!
