fucking a, right on.
like it or not, there are electronic music artists with *ambition*. artists
who believe enough in this little scene to want to tell other people about
it, people who might not otherwise get the chance to hear it.
i'll never get tired of saying this: fuck an underachiever hide-in-my-cave
aesthetic.
i think the scene is MORE than ready for experimental electronic music
artists who talk. to other people.
-rk, talker
ps: this is not an invitation for some retards to be like "I'm an IDM artist
who talks! And this is what I say: go to my mp3.com site and download my
dope tracks! one is named 'x//ilclitclip'!"
