actually, i'm not a musician and never have been. i've always been into music though. one thing i can't stand is when people discount a negative music review and say "i'd like to see you make something better"...bullshit and completely irrelevant. one thing though, i've come to appreciate found sound sources a lot more after watching a friend of mine make electronic music and messing around a little bit with some of his equipment. i've also become aware of how little effort it takes to make some of the generic electronica that is currently flooding the market. it seems that for every two good albums released there are at least fifty or more bad/mediocre lps. example: the complation "clicks and cuts 2". i swear this thing could of been condensed into two discs instead of three. there is at least an hour worth of tracks that are poorly written and should have never been released. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
