Agreed! The picture from the cover of AI One applies. While there are plenty of beats, this is nevertheless listening music.

Is this the IDM list or the breaks list? You need a really heavy pitch control with SAWII to get those 40 BPM tracks up to 160 BPM where you can get *something* out of it. :-) Beat matching is one thing, but I think you are messing with Orbital's artistic conception if you alter the speed too much. - respect to all, Ken ken@snowcrest.net (primary address) (if no answer, try ken.stuart@tigerteam.org )
