I really didn't enjoy it that much, the whole book felt a bit dull compared to Vurt and Pollen, much better IMO is the collection of short stories, Pixel Juice, that he released earlier, it contains a lot more creativity and better ideas. Nevertheless I would still recommend it to people as it is, as above stated, extremely interesting to anyone with an interest in the electronic music scene (although be prepared for other people to accuse it of being pretentious wank or unreadable guff) georgewilliamson --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
