iyo indeed! Man, I remember saying similar stuff about Kid 606, even Autechre, but then I ended up liking it... Not that this is a similar situation, but now I guess I know what it feels like to be on the other end, reading this stuff about artists I really like. in my own opinion, I really really like Max Tundra's style, which he has in spades... I think I can quite truthfully and honestly state as fact that Max Tundra is skilled, talented, and very, very good - you just don't like it because it's not your thing........

You like Venetian Snares? I guess that says it all right there. I'm tempted to say the same thing about him that you said about Max Tundra, but I suppose his stuff is probably really good for what it is, but I just don't like it myself.

That's kinda what his albums are like, methinks... At least we can agree that LC John is acceptable! :D -adam, not actually here, you're just imagining this message --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
