Provocation is a nice hobby. ;) But on a serious note you have a point there. Human creature is built with two basic principles. To breed and to survive. Anything beyond is a creative action. So music or any experience, which pokes you or stirs your mind more than usually - creates a tension. Our insticts get sharper and our nature is to be prepared for an enemy. Any obstacle can be therefore observed as an enemy. then purely absurdity :P So if Mr. X and Mr. Y pump their sound into me and I happy join them without resistance I just adapt into nature but with more provocative sound I need patience to decipher 'the message'. Mainstream is your friend. Deep stuff is your enemy. At the end both can be adapted. The problem or blessing is that the deeper you go into intellect, deeper you dip into your mind, the more you begin to demand. There is no way back into dullness. Not without lobotomy. So deeper the experience goes the more control the experience has from our psyche. IDM is a weapon in right hands. Hehe.. My goal is to create army of brainchildren via sound. Hyptonising masses to be aware. Maybe RDJ does the same. Hypnotizing society. .peace :) Sogax --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
