*grin* at least i got some action going here. Seriously though, i
guess i got the idm and the uk-dance lists mixed up. . . i *have*
posted more elaborate stuff about why i don't like SV, but not to this
list. My mistake, sorry.
As for how long i've been buying music. . . well, at least long enough
to realize that the only good parts of SV's album are total rip offs
from Tangerine Dream (Compare "Atem" to "Drifting Like Wales"), except
that SV adds some annoying strings.

This is exactly what i think is lacking in SV's music. The record
isn't a trip, just like most New Age music isn't. "Caravan of
Emotions" for example, is, in my opinion, anything but a caravan of
emotions.

What sounds like "wonderful melodies" to you sounds like Roland D
series synths to me. ;) When i played SV's album in my apartment, i
had to turn it off, not because my neighbours complained, but because
my elevator refused to work due to envy. This music simply has has
*no* content!
How's that for elaboration? ;)
