In light of current L.A. policing methods, who regard any form of electronic music as rave music, what kind of music do you think constitutes 'rave music'? Of late it seems that any form of electronic performance can be regarded as 'rave' music through the very ambiguous categorization of electronic music itself. Does it now mean that the music of John Cage is rave, is a guitar [an electronic instrument] now a rave instrument? Was rave a youth culture synonymous with the late eighties through early nineties, or do you feel the term has come to embody a larger meaning? Is it not true that electronic music in all its diversity has existed pre and post rave culture? That Philip Glass concert your folks have just been to? Careful, they might be raving just like Scooter. _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch with absent friends - get MSN Messenger http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
