I have no idea why im jumping in on this thread, but suffice it to say Im
getting sick of all the angst on this list! Ive been on IDM for years now
and I dont remember this much mean-ness since the Gil Gershman shoot-out
days! Lemme quote Rodney King fo ya'
"Can't we all just GET ALONG???!?!"
Is there something in the water? Have y'all not done your Y2K shopping
yet? My first reaction to Tom posting to the list for small labels to
send in promos was "Gee, what magazine was that? Ill have to pick up an
issue if they are interested in THIS music". Its not like youd ever see a
Suction - or even a SKAM record reviewed in ad-saturated magazine like
Rolling Bone - and if you did, theyd likely toss it aside as art-wank
since its not Rockerfeller Skanky or Ibiza enough for college freshmen
getting their first tattoos and goatees.
Cant speak for everyone here but this list but it is getting really
flamey lately. And to slam a music reviewer for announcing to the
micro-labels that he'll give them the time of day is horse shit. I wish
more 'lazy' reviewers took interest in IDM labels - Id be more interested
in reading their publications.
jumpin' in where I dont belong-
