wow, someone else who likes IDM but also appreciates words in music
-- nice to meet you!
I absolutely love the fact that Bogdan actually has lyrics. As good
as good instrumental music is, there's something completely different

vocals (ie. bola's mauver and recent funkstorung) is not quite what
i'm talking about.
