And whats wrong with that? :P I remember someone posting about the beats on RDJ with a similar criticsm; I think some of these _less expensive_ keyboards are capable of some lovely noises (especially when put through effects :D) I just hope IDM doesn't go the way of a lot of other dance music where everyone uses the same (trendy?) percussion/analogue keyboard sounds One of the main things I like about the music on this list is the variety of noises used, almost as a feature separate from the structure of the tunes/ melodies. -- Jameel Syed ______________________________________________________________________________ http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/9798/ "it was an act of self hypnosis, a deliberate drowning of consciousness by means of rhythmic noise"
