employee Tony >Morley. He has an interest in dance band, which until recently 4AD has shyed away >from. 4AD has ignored the dance/IDM market far too long IMHO, although Gus Gus sounds >promising... Colourbox were doing interesting stuff with soul and dub on 4AD many years ago. Wolfgang Press also has some dancey tracks, even had a Sabres remix on their last ep, which was surprising. Insides made some semi-IDM rhythmic melancholia, esp. on their epic Clear Skin / Skinned Clear eps. Ivo once said that he has no clue about dance/club culture. I guess he's just not that interested.
