Nice one Kevin. It might feel like it's academic to yourself and perhaps it might well be to others, but I for one would still relish to hear your own personal decision in your own words as a producer, why you've gone back to using hardware.

Been reading all of the comments about the future/death/life/cycle of the 313 list. As long as we talk there will be no death. We all know what everyone's hot button issues are...and sadly, less and less of us are actively purchasing music due to many other issues that we'll file under "life" or "growing up." Anyhow, I thought I would mention something that might pique many listers interest: Arne Weinberg's label Diametric (http://www.diametric-music.com/) has a new release: tangula's descending ep...it's vinyl, limited to 300 copies....and I like it...deep techno with something that most of the garbage created nowadays doesn't have-a little funk to it. Maybe I'm talking out of school here, but Arne is set to release an album on CD as the next project...and then there's a release by a guy who calls himself fbk after...the ep is called "the expert escapist" and will have some of my best work on it...funky, melodic, and expressive...be on the lookout for that this summer (crosses fingers). I am really excited to say something about this, and will continue to give up info as I get it. As a side note, I have gone back to using hardware, and there will be results to post for everyone soon...
