this reply is almost as silly as the thread on dxm :) i kinda feel bad for starting this, but my original intention was to see if IDM/new-school-electronic/whatever music creates similar feelings and mental environments to certain fun pills and liquids. i think in all this talk of what gear so and so uses, and who is inspired by who, and what sample this artist used, or why someone's music collection is an extension of their manliness, or why idm sucks now, and why this is idm and this is not, and what the fuck does idm mean anyway?, and why do we not have emotion in our music... in the midst of talks on all these [sometimes] interesting things... i cannot think of ONE time aside from this week that the psychedelic nature of this music has been addressed. and i am most certainly NOT trying to develope a debate between the folks that enjoy ingesting certain chemicals and those who do not. (in fact, one of the MOST sober folks i know somehow manages to drop the most INSANE and tweeked out music mixed in a insane manner everytime he djs.. very "stimuli"ating :) i dont know, the other night i was just tripping out on some of the insanity of this music -- how beautiful it is -- how it takes my head to weird places.. sorry if mentioning dxm flipped a little switch. chris it.s ok to like noise it.s okay to like house it.s okay to like pop "nothing but respect to hello kitty" _we are all lost --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
