Why not just call it "artificial intelligence" (or "AI") -- therein the compliment is vague (Is it really intelligent? Or is it just artificial? Ha ha). It then perhaps serves up a more accurate image of the nature of the music to which you listen -- because as we all know, most of the stuff you certainly can't dance to! :mak. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

My usual explanation is "Wierd techno". I think we probably could drop 'dance'. Actually my local record shop (big up massive the Richard's records posse) has seperate sections for wierd beats and experimental, as well as having (DJ) Hell records under both UK and US Techno. I'm quite glad I started this one: this could be where the new term first gains currency. Or possibly not. But it does seem a bit odd sticking to a name that most of these posts have disagreed with. It might just be my obsession though. Happy Thursday Coherent posts are for wusses

You might have better luck getting people to adopt your terminology if you learn how to spell it correctly. C.
