Yeah, but then you'd have one killer single.
And one killer single with no other releases would seem very mysterious and
make lotsa IDMers conjecture about who you really are (AFX?, not that you
sound like him). Maybe you could release that on 12", then send some
half-assed old tracks, get them presed and watch everyone buy them like PBO
or something. Not that you're that kind of a guy. Not that i've ever heard
PBO, but that's the opinions of at least the vocal part of the list. I'm
rambling, will stop.

I agree with Fred here. What?
Song structure has never been important to electronic musicians.
Look at AFX's RDJ album and Come To Daddy. Some have structure, really
nicely. Some don't and it doesn't make a difference.
Fred's tracks kindof remind me of a mixtape. Starting somewhere and going
somewhere else. Not ending like it started, but travelling, moving,
changing. And flowing. Yet it took me a few listens before i even noticed
that at least several songs end very differently than they begin. So does
that add or detract from the music? For one thing, i think that it keeps
music from getting repetitive (Imagine what Fatboy Slim could do if he
trimmed "You've come..." down into a 15-20 minute megamix.)
Sure, there are parts that i wish were repeated more, cos i really like
them. Listening to it, i think "bring back that one part" and it doesn't
and i don't mind too much.

Nor me either.
