shit, i'd be bitter *without* kid606's music to beat up on. but, yes, the fact that i dislike his music is one reason i posted my rant. i'm sure he's a nice guy in person. it's not a personal attack, despite the claims otherwise, if that makes you feel any better about it. i have no problems giving or receiving criticism. if i made music, and i was serious about it, i would expect the type of criticism that i give. (and i am getting it, too, don't worry about it)

how about some nina simone and charlie parker? or something? can i now join your Authentic Jazz Appreciation club, or does my enjoyment of a self-admittedely lighthearted "hot" jazz band like snz (in addition to hundreds of other musicians and groups that i don't list on my web site) disqualify me? after today i've come to realize that the biggest problem on this list is not elitism, but really people's unquestioning obedience to the latest trends. you folks can't even admit to enjoying music from a couple of years ago, for fear that you get dumbasses making comments like the one above. why should i apologize for listening to snz? what a stupid thing to say... you don't have to agree or disagree or even pay attention. just ask yourself what you'll be listening to in five years, and wonder where the money went. some of you folks respect -- no, worship, really -- some musicians so much, you're not paying any attention to the music. gosh, it's almost getting as bad as organized religion. -a. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

i love soul coughing. but only the first album (ruby vroom). the other ones lost it, although "irrestistable bliss" has its moments (like the first 4 songs). and that's really old, and i listen to it regularly and push it onto friends, who ironically have bought "ruby vroom". it's intelligent, it's dancey (mmm real jungle), and it's very music. mm ruby vroom.. cheers, /derek --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

yes!!! and we call these people "poseurs!" I hate poseurs!!!! We must find the poseurs! And quiz them! It is the only way to weed out the poseurs. We shall quiz them and then, if they fail our interrogations, we shall kick them out of our lunch table. They shall not be allowed at our lunch table. You! What's your favorite song off of Amber? THE FIRST ONE? Begone with you! Eat your lunch elsewhere! You there! Name all the songs on Boards of Canada's first EP! What? WRONG! Fork over that Skam patch you have on your backpack, infidel! Kid with the hat! What's your favorite Kid606 record? AHA! Trick question! You can't like Kid606, you sheep! Now get out! Go read a corporate magazine because you like to suck corporate dick!

actually, yeah, he was being very facetious. hence the "lunch table", emphasizing how juvenile such an idea is. not saying that we can't enjoy things with a kid-like zeal (aka boards of canada), but we shouldn't ignorantly judge anyone :) at least that's what i get from this. or at least how i feel in general. i mean, we're all adults here. anyone want an airplane ride? women first. cheers, /derek --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
