In a message dated 97-10-17 16:28:26 EDT, you write: << erm.. surely it'd be three-to-the-floor in 3/4 time? more to the point, why do the rhythmic elements in supposedly innovative tracks have to use the equivalent of kick drum, snare, hi-hats etc. ? Given a sampler, why do 99% of artists restrict themselves to imitating real world forms of percussive instrumentation? It's like getting one of those expensive new modelling synths and wanting a piano sound out of it. >> It's because you can make a tweaky reverberated flanged backwards high end bass boost piano out of it.
