you figured out our secret! yes, simon reynolds has set up the Foundation
for New Musical Nomenclature and Neologistic Overkill, with generous funding
from dave eggers and david foster wallace. every time we invent a term and
it goes to press, we get $25. we also get royalties on recurring usage. i've
already bought myself a new dictionary with the proceeds from "microhouse"
and i'm hard at work on R&D... ;)
just being flippant, of course. the question of genre and neologism is of
course a sticky one (um, no pun intended), but in the case of
"microsampling," it's much easier -- that's akufen's own term.
cheers
