I personally like the Israeli style, which tends to be very groovy and polyrhythmic. When I aksed him later on what he thought of the tape, he said that he wasn't expecting to hear house music!!!! I was very taken aback, as anyone who's heard goa would say that it sounds nothing like house. sometimes I think people use "house" as a catch-all term for anything that has some booty/groove to it and "techno" anything that sounds more rigid/mechanical. cc ------------------------------------------------------------ --== Sent via Deja.com ==-- http://www.deja.com/
