i'm not one to listen to hype...it seems this release generated a bit of a sensation, but i ignored that. i'm not familiar with 2-step or dubstep at all. but i have a smattering of understanding of jungle/d'n'b and i am very familiar with dark ambient atmospherics and also with joy division. the bits i heard on boomkat sounded like if martin hannett had survived and begun producing underground dance records. a bit like dj shadow and his scratchy record samples done minimal and creepy like plastikman's 'consumed'. just so you know where i'm coming from d. ________________________________________________________________ Sent via the WebMail system at chthonicstreams.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
