I love(d) d'n'b, but must confess I don't hear anything lively within its nowadays. However its progeny in particular broken beat fascinates (Likwid Biskit, Seiji, et al). Also, my particular fascination is for the improvisors who have, rather late (c'97 onwards), been infected by the breakbeat virus, stand up: - Erik Truffaz (The Mask, Mantis) - Nils Petter Molvaer (live, can't bear Manfred Eicher's productions on the studio releases) - Rhys Chatham (Hard Edge) - Graham Haynes (dnb, Wagner) (all trumpeters, Miles casts a long shadow) Thanks for the pointer to The Bays, have to give them a listen also. All the best, Colin. np Jon Hassell, '86 Illinois Park. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
