it was some kind of modular synth with patch cords right? and there
appeared to be some kind of theremein device. i thought the performance
was stunning. it made me reevaluate the entire album. i was impressed by
the level of creativity that was obviously at work. i was at a party
watching it, and a girl (very mainstream musical tastes) pretty much gave
the reaction i think most people are going to have: "this is radiohead?
it doesn't sound like radiohead." so i wouldn't worry about idm getting
co-opted by the mainstream US masses just yet; i think a more likely
reaction is that they will just pass it off as "weird" or something.
