i need somebody to explain something to me. what is the reason that kid606 is all the rage? why do people think he's so great? i've bought two of his 7"s, one split 12", and a remix disc... everything that i've ever heard him do has been (IMHO) complete and utter rubish... now, i like cut-up random sounds ala stockhausenandwalkmen... but i see no redeeming value in his tracks. i've seen him live three times, and still don't really see the appeal; though i must admit that he IS more likable live than on his recordings.... mind you im NOT bashing him, i merely would like somebody to explain WHY he's liked among the people of the list... and why he's given so much credit for his works.. i mean, doing the NWA track was great and all, but anybody could have taken that track and run it through a couple of filters and dsped it all to hell (which is all it sounds like to me)... either way... why he's remixing the next depeche mode single doesn't make much sense either... yeah. but go out and get the new morrmusic remix 12"... it's the freshest stuff i've heard in a crows age.... nice little remix by kirk 'as one' d..... where has he been? -kiya iamacopierltd. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
