I doubt Britney would notice if a Nord Modular was used on her next single...in a recent interview I had with her...I asked her what she thought of the whole electronica/IDM thing...her response: "Hee hee...look at my boobs...aren't they the IDMest chunks of flesh you've ever seen...???" And you know what...she was right... :) RoNAn P.S. Breakbeats in R&B (even though it holds no relation to what R&B used to be), is a bad thing...hell, I like Missy E, and some of that other stuff...and I don't want to...next thing you know, I'll be liking UK Garage... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pjotr Stam" <fredscape@rocketmail.com> To: "Peter Schrock" <pachinko74@mac.com>; "anyone and everyone and" <idm@hyperreal.org> Sent: Thursday, July 05, 2001 11:35 AM Subject: Re: [idm] IDM becoming trendy??
