Now what people need to do is push this idea further: do an album like
this, with like 5-8 songs per side, and do them all in parallel tracks.
I think that having a hip-hop 12" double-grooved like that would be a
problem for DJs, like if your needle slips (heaven forbid!) you could end
up playing a wholde different track. Or maybe that'd be an easy way to do
transitions. (heh)

I was really surprised to hear him with a british accent. I guess cos he
looks like a washed-up surfer, i expected him to sound californian. Stupid me.
I though it was funny when Norman played one of the host's favorite songs
by pressing a button on his computer. I thought he did a decent job of
explaining to the clueless host how he actually makes music. "If you
sample a whole song, you have to pay for it, but if you just sample a
little bit, no one will know" or something like that.
oh, just to blow my IDM cred, i just got "You've come..." and i'm digging it.

Fatboy slim? Clueless? I think he's made an album of the best party songs
since Biggie died. Though Fatboy is far from IDM, more like really good SDM
(S="stupid").

Please... of all the off-topic tangents to get onto, drooling (like this)
is by far the worst.
