you are saying that they don't have a style, I think that is rather silly.
Listen to several differen ae tracks, do you really believe you cannot find
the affinity between them? If you ask me I will tell you that Ae have a very
poinient style,.. much of their familiarity comes from their melodies, which
personally I find to envoke very vivid emotions, the rest of their style I
suppose I would attribute to the sounds they use and how they use them.
