Okay Eric, Ususally because it has a bit more innovativeness about it instead of working on a formula to produce commercially viable material. I am a musician and I live with a musician (yes and with chart success) who writes commercial material. He finds he can experiment more with music when it is for himself and not for a preset market. Heck we still loves aspects of commercial techno, even if it does get a bit too cheesy. Peace GrooveChilde Signature Music
