the idea that wap155 is poppy always makes me chuckle now; mainly because that was my first thought too, 'man, he's really not giving a crap about "selling out", he'll just do his own thing.' then i played the track when in the vicinity of people who like actual pop music, and had all my visions of populist idm blown to peices. in my opinion the track in no way appeals to a mainstream audience. i couldn't care less either way, as the track is massive; but to describe it as 'poppy'... well, i just can't do it anymore. helix 'all i heard was static. i thought there was somethi...' 'that was my cd, it's called 'tron man stigmata'. i sampled static from a victrola, and processed the sounds.' 'okay... that's cool' _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
