Many artists use guitars, and yet when another does, he's not "ripping off" the previous artist. By the same token using tones similair to another group isn't ripping them off either, with all of us working within the same parameters (midi, software), it's only natural that the end results will overlap. Also, it's fundamental to realize that nothing is truly original, everything is built upon or has pieces taken from something else. it's completely faulty ever to state that an artist with a closely related process is somehow indebted to whoever used the style first, because it's inevitable that they got it from somewhere else in the first place. cdin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
