heh heh... my girlfriend likes it, though...
seriously, this music is pretty "slick", but it doesn't sound like an
armani fashion show to me. one of the things i like about it is the way
it plays around with musical conventions - taking the production language
of house and the lo-fi textures of scratchy jazz records and making
something, to my ears, novel. i can see how it might make people who are
used to conventions it juggles a litle uncomfortable...

on a somewhat related note, this reminds me of my friend's rant about
idm... "why do we get into music in the first place? duh, to get
women. after your rock set, or your 3 hours spinning house, girls are
clamouring for your attention. after your idm show, what do you
get? scruffy nerds who want to know what kind of midi controller that
is..." ;) ;) ;)
