Yeah, but since I think the general problem with IDM is that the artists do
not excel in making their tracks progress in interesting and stimulating
ways, IDM usually sounds much better in short clips...
But what do you mean with Koch being schizophrenic? At least it didn't sound
like 5-sec-attention-span-drillnbass -schizophrenic to me... In fact, of
those two (Koch vs Portland), Koch sounded far better and original. Portland
sounded quite stereotypical and uninspired, sorta like Proem Lite.
But then again - Igloomag, which usually likes absolutely everything,
criticized the Koch disc as rather uninteresting and "not totally
satisfying". I mean, Igloomag usually praises every freakin uninspiring
'soft ethereal pads and crunchy beats' album and finds any fault in only
about 1 % of all the reviewed records, and now they rail this!
But Igloomag can go screw themselves. To me, 'Mine is Yours' sounded much
more unique than 'Distal'...
... umm, yea.

is Proem.
