before i respond to the post, i have a question for some of you. i'm a
recent turntable owner, and my records are finally growing out of the milk
crate that i have for them. what do you folks use for storage? are there
any places online that you've dealt with that have good solutions? or am i
just better off building my own?
thanks for any and all replies.
now for the good stuff.
well, i'm from the idm-through-industrial camp. sort of. not that i was a
big hardcore industrial person or anything. got into nin in highschool,
more in college. listened to some kmfdm as well. wanted to find more stuff
like that kind of thing and happened upon pop will eat itself (which
really isn't that kind of thing at all, although they do sample ministry's
"thieves" in "everything's cool"), mainly because they were signed to
nothing.
turned out i really liked them, and right around that time, they released
a remix album, "two fingers my friends" remixed by all sorts of
industrial-type folks (foetus, die krupps, etc...) and not-industrial
folks (jah wobble, higher intelligence agency, *the orb*).
so if i hadn't dug the orb remix on "TFMF", i might have not paid as much
attention to the review that i read for "orbvs terrarvm" in, off all
places, rolling stone. bought that and was changed for life. it was like
nothing that i had heard before. wouldn't you know it, RS reviewed "i care
because you do" in the next issue. bought that one, too. completely
different from the orb, but no less exciting to me at the time.
after that, i discovered hyperreal, and all of the great resources there
and was able to find out a ton about this stuff i had never heard of
before. oh yeah. found out about the idm-list there too. thanks to all you
folks, i now have a turntable and almost 1100 records and CDs. i think i
had somewhere around 150 when i started listening to PWEI... =)
so there you have it. i sort of did, sort of didn't come to idm through
the orb. of course, i don't have any meat beat CDs...
