you misunderstood me. i dont class him with the overpaid etc. as i personally feel he's been in a league of his own for years with nobody even now able to touch him on a good night.
and it would be nice for him to give us the chance to "progress with him" at the clubs we all love and have seen him rock many times. not in some super money club full of people who really won't understand what he's actually doing. if he wasn't so far up his own arse as to believe his music isn't techno anymore then maybe we'd all get this chance. wasn't he the one who said "techno is whatever you want it to be......" so why is he now restricting himself to house clubs? paul ----- Original Message ----- From: glyph1001 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2002 8:55 PM Subject: Re: [313] jeff mills stars again off his rocker > but then as he explained himself, I gradually understood. > > Frankly, I believe its up to his audience to appreciate the switcher-roo > he is contemplating and perhaps progress along with him.
