Hence the old John Peel comment that the best thing about intelligent drum &
bass is that it implies the existence of stupid drum & bass, which would be
fantastic. (Chacking new mail, I think this is what Glenn meant... )

whatever' is insufferably pretentious. I'm sure noone on the IDM list would
do such a thing. :-)
