I like just about everything.. But the last song I did (just finished) is a kind of distorted haujobb sounding thing. With a nice little "idm-ish" (haha) end to it. All on the computer of course. Well, a friend of mine recorded his jp-8000 for me, and just sent me some of his random playing over the internet, but I filtered it through some LP/HP filters... The one before that was a... well... uh... Hard to explain. One person who heard it said it had a "sad machine" quality to it. If you want a copy (or anyone else), lemme know, and I'll send a copy. (tried mp3 but it ain't workin). As far as labels go.. Well, I'm so broke, I can't buy too much music these days. It's either buy CD's or buy equipment, or pay for school. Naturally, I've been buying equipment. But, I like anything that sounds different. My main love would be IIM (intelligent industrial music, hehe), because I think that many people have decided that it's impossible to write groundbreaking music that is aggressive and distorted. Too much music to find, too little money, too little time. I guess I like Numb, Haujobb, Autechre, Aphex Twin, Converter, David Garza, depeche mode, bach, blah blah.. you get the idea.
