eggy answered it a well, but i'd just like to chime in and say that i've pretty much gone full circle in my tastes... in the early mid ninties i liked more subtle forms like "trip hop" and ambient... then as the mid-late ninties rolled around i got all super obsessed with complexity like mike paradinas, squarepusher, ae (as reflected by our first 10 tunes as blue vitriol), but lately i find myself getting more and more obsessed with music that takse the stripped down aesthetic quite far, i really love dub + minimal techno, and glitch house these days. still, i'll throw on "brace yourself" or "hard normal daddy" or venetion snares sometimes and get off on the crazy edits. there is plenty of room for subtlety in the genre. -josh -- ________________________________________________________________ live experimental electronic music -- http://bluevitriol.com independent u.s. drum'n'bass -- http://vitriolix.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
