Success! NOT TO RIP ON THE STANDARD EMAIL LIST GROUP THING, but, some topics are a littel more important to hear about. DAMN, cudos to every person who tossed their hat into the ring about what ever and honestly started "talking" and not just "typing"! I am fucking sweating here reading some of these responses. Very well informed, yes. as for who ever it was that said house is important, here to stay, yada yada yada....(sorry, everyones name melds into one, i call "whoever") check this out: do you think that Carlos or kraftwerk or vollenweider or j.q. bach thought of the simple, boiled to vapor (well, this is too cool of a word to use for house, but i will leave it there because it was what i typed) stylings of house when they began toiling with electronics. Really, HOUSE SPROUTED FROM THE ORIGINALS, AND THE ORIGINALS EMBODIED EVERYTHING THAT IS STILL IDM. BET ON IT. Yes, house will always have a niche and a audience, but i am not it. And, since I am american, in america, i am assumed to be a lover of "boomboomboom,t-t,boomboomboom". F dood, and of course the drug culture comes back into play with it. With the assumption of 4/4 comes the assumption of narcotics. (((((as a side, errol astral tells me that their label does not promote this image, that the media are guilty for this. But, has anyone seen that fatboy video from last year for Rockafella what have you? Did you see the joint being passed to the breakdancer while they sat in a opium den? This was one of the only electronic based acts to get heavy rotation on MTV(get off the air) and what was portrayed? think about it))) and another thing, TRANCE> If it were not for the rise of ectasy, trance would die. Simple as that. There is no logical argument against this point. So, a complete style of music devoted to drug culture. GREAT!! And you wonder why the US Senate may pass a bill banning dj's from playing live for more than 20 people? (thisis really going on, it is scary as fuck). ((((on another side note, to eat my own words, so to say, Nightmares on Wax are really, really good.))))) what ever benine "my escalator stops for 'dancing with the lion'" _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
