But then there's a lot to be said for music that isn't technically perfect in terms of compositional style, rhythm programming, or whatever. In my view there are many elements that are much more important. It's of no interest to me whether some artist does or doesn't know anything about rhythm programming if the sounds being created are worthwhile, and in B12's case they usually are.I have yet to hear anything from B12 that I really dislike, and much that I like. If that story about Warp turning dwn their latest album is really true that would be very sad indeed as some of Warp's output pales in comparison to works B12 has produced. Tony
