Thank you IDM Chicago ! Electronic music/techno/IDM started faceless, but time proved that it cannot stand without graphic designers which, more often than not, unfortunately appear much more talented than the «artists» they're supposed to serve — now this is only anyone's (i.e. me) opinion and should be handled as such ; sorry if i offended anyone. IDM Chicago, i promise to consult your website extensively, even though Flying Lotus and Actress figure among the worst abuses that happened to (ill-ectronic) music to me ! For the aforementioned reason, the good news are that http://reviews.headphonecommute.com/ looks great first ! I'm absolutely convinced that some great stuff are likely to get released anyday but the little time (if any) i have to make them come out desperates me. There are not many magazines left and i can hardly trust the Boomkat ubiquitous «Essential purchase» and «Recommended» reviews so, all in all, your commutation is welcome ! Thanks a lot for the time and dedication you put into it. -- " *Automatic, pushbutton, remote controlSynthetic, genetics command your soul.*" The Last Poets, *Mean machine* On Sun, Oct 12, 2014 at 12:49 AM, IDM Chicago <idm.chicago@gmail.com> wrote:
