maybe.. at least it would be experimental.. and a lot
more interesting then opening reaktor and making
another clitchy beat.. I personally like
electroacoustic music which involves he use of
processed "found sounds"..

okay sure, I personally hate the sound of the theremin
except when I hear it used for 1950s film
soundtracks.. but I guess a new theremin album could
be classic if pulled off correctly.

I am no music major but I dont think electronic music
was all about getting new sounds.. there was/is a
great deal to be said for those who can take old
sounds and make you hear them again in a new way which
I think Drukqus succeeded in doing.... check out the
earliest electronic works from the 50 and 60s.. they
were based on using spliced tape of found sounds and
simple oscillators , arranging them in new and
interesting ways.. some of it is good.. but like any
other genre most is crap.... I don't think Drukqs fits
into that category... I think the composition is quite
well done, not to mention the production...
but again, thats my opinion..
