Hard Normal Daddy is one of the finest records I've ever heard and should ever hope to hear. Sam At 05:10 PM 5/23/2003 -0400, you wrote:

It's probably my favorite for spazzy beats, but it's really impressive mostly due to the speed. The programming isn't that complex; it's still just step sequenced on your standard sequencer. His understanding of breaks and how drums fit together is what's impressive. I think I like the "Feed Me Weird Things" album more, though, as it's a bit more cohesive and jazzy. It sounds more planned and thought out. Maybe that's because "Big Loada" really has that EP feel of being all over the place (since, you know, it is an EP, not an album proper). -- eggytoast.com - eggtastic.com ----- it's in your grocer's freezer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
