I've heard a lot of industrial music and I don't think I've heard
anything with a more than superficial similarity to the Ventolin mixes.
I certainly can't think of more than a handful of industrial records with
as much character and bizarre humor. At this point, I'm not as concerned
with finding "innovative" music as I am with finding expressive music
that moves me. Ventolin and the Basic Channel comp. are both fascinating
records that I listen to often. I NEVER pull out Second Annual Report or
NON anymore.
