word perm, iD have to say that imo the electronics we are listening to derives its style, form, and structure from every musical genre if one were to go around asking every electronic musician what their inspiration and influences were...shit, i was raised on the Police, some Arlo Guthrie, and Wierd Al Yankovic...of course i myself didnt choose to listen to these musicians, my rents would blast it whenever their friends stopped by to chill in their respective cuts...i myself picked up on the hip-hop (early 90's ie EPMD, Masta Ace Inc, Guru, MC Search et al) and metal (Sepultura, Slayer, ) of kiss-fm 98.7 and the old x107...i am blessed for living near manhattan so by way of radio dial exploration, i got to listen to all sorts of wierd shit on the college radio of WNYU & WFMU...this expanded my musical horizons beyond what i had even known to exist in this commercial sound state...I became a punk rawking, hardcore, hip-hopping, electro, prog-rockin, folksy, indie dork by them and well...here i am...blabbering... tidewatergemfish np. my own music, cuz i like the music i make sometimes
