well i picked up the new Sade cd today. listening to it, i wasn't overly impressed. her voice is of course wonderful, but the songs and the music is rather bland. so i started thinking about how it could be better, and realized a downtempo/minimal IDM-ish thing would be great, but not the portishead, massive attack kinda thing. more like aphex twin at half speed or something. so has this ever been done? good downtempo IDM? i think it would be nice to have a cd with smooth hip hop sort of grooves and weird sounds and effects. vocals would be great too. and please note the distinction between trip-hop and what im trying to imagine. i'm thinking more along the lines of weird slow electronics than glitchiness or sampling. basicaly just like a really mellow autechre. and if i find no one does this, then by god i thought of it first and you can't copy me until after im famous for creating a sub-genre of IDM. :jason (every word you said) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
