hi all, just listening to Plaid - "Rest Proof Clockwork", and the thought strikes me.. why do so many 'idm' artists put the ability to write a striking musical melody below, say, pressing the retrigger button on their drum machine lots of times? ok, i know this is super-cynical, but if there were more people like Plaid thinking about the melody angle as opposed to the freeform randomtone stuff, i think we'd be getting somewhere :) ahem, as i said, just a reactionary thing. regards, h0l/m211+toniknullstarz.
