Thanks, I'll try to check these folks out. Haven't heard many of those artists, but I'll check them out. UK bootlegs are 90% electronic pop, from at least what I've heard of them...tell me specifics. The other 10% is older hip-hop D&B remixes, which I usually enjoy. Do you know of any URLs with online samples?

Never said I thought it was new. Matter of fact I mentioned how it reminded me of early 90's Uk hardcore/Chicago megamixes... I don't think that the Kid tries to be completely original by a longshot...I feel he's makes tracks in this particular generational context. He's about my age & you can tell...Who has put together new wave, hip-hop, booty bass, hardcore, & jungle alltogether in the same track, with IDM sensibilities? I'd be willing to bet he's the only one; but if you know of any other exact tracks like that, give me the ID.

I wouldn't call this "solely experimental electronic music" by a long shot...It's eclectic & decent music though.

Well, sorry, I don't have money showered upon me like some of you apparently do...I'd certainly like to hear some of these artists you mentioned though. Easy, Lion of the 23rd enigma.
