great choice. but i have to respond to your statement about the origin of this style. by the style, do you mean hip-hop/electronic crossover? or do you mean the use of vocal cuts to create texture? i still consider p73 and Machine drum hip-hop/electronic crossover, and this stuff has been around for awhile. push button objects has been doing this stuff for years, for one. we have CD's like the East Flatbush Project on Choc. Ind., where famous artists like autechre/squarepusher were remixing hip-hop. Funkstorung was doing this kind of stuff with Appetite for Disctruction. im sure that people can name more stuff that i cant even recall right now. but i think that calling hip-hop/electronic stuff a recent development isn't exactly true. please tell me if i construed your statement incorrectly. shane --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
