It is my opinion that counting the BPM is anal retentive. If it sounds
good together great, if not fade one track out.... But I like to cut-up
(as in Burroughs/Gysin) IDM with off the wall samples and other good
music... which, in turn, reveals the Other (as in McKenna) and captures
chaos.... as being a new sum of the parts.
So I offer up to the collective IDM-L an old mix tape that has since
been recorded to mp3 and posted to the internet. You can steam it

or DL it...

http://home.cyberlink.com/duncan/audio/halluciphile_and_Jej_-_sloppy_braindance_B.mp3
but as long as you listen you might understand what I am trying to
explain. Everything was recorded live and made up on the fly - improv -
nothing was pre-planned. This tape is roughly a year old and I have
since made many other mixes... but every time I listen to this mix it
just gets better and better. The hiss of the tape makes it more real,
and adds character to the recording... and that is why I did not try to
remove it. If you have similar ideas and/or make similar noise please
get in contact with me... we could do a collaboration or a trade.... if
you take the time to listen to it, and have any opinion about it please
share it.
p.s. something that I tried recently and loved... play Diskono2 and kid
koala - Carpal Tunnel Syndrome at the same time... starting with track
10 on each... very nice.
BTW, timeless art not only depicts society at the time but also became
part of society... or example Norman Rockwell
thank you for your time
