Couldn't agree more - it seems that the situation within electronic music is a bit of a paradox. The more and more genres that split and diversify mean that there are plenty of unexplored avenues that have the opportunity to crosspollinate (think of a cladogram - used by zoologists to define animal species - usually through pronounced physical features) one another. Jazz/Techno, or Dub Techno Maurizio style for example. The problem is that by nature we have to classify to identify - the very nature of the music industry requires this otherwise they'd never sell any records. I suppose the nature of the DJ (perhaps in modern times) has changed. On the other hand, the old adage that good music always shines through is perhaps pertinent. Sorry Thursday afternoon rambling. Am still getting over the intensity of seeing Brian Wilson live last night. Was trying to figure how he would sound if he came from Detroit and produced now! www.bleep43.co.uk ----- Original Message ----- From: Stewart Caig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 313 Newsgroup <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 3:56 PM Subject: [313] 4 Hero I remember the time I heard Mr Kirks Nightmare for the first time.
