I've always thought that his drum programming is amazing. I'm a total knob! No wonder this sounded so familiar to me. I had the Web of Life CD since it came out, but it was stolen from me a couple of years ago. Doh! Time to go back on the hunt. > As I said to you recently Tristan, I feel it's plausible at a push to hear > Curtin's beat programming as proto-broken beats.

In fact there's a fair amount of proto-broken beat stuff I can think of, like Sensurreal and Gerd and some of the mid-90s Titonton stuff. But really if you wanna talk proto-broken beats check Pal Joey's 'Hot Music' and of course 'Bug in the Bassbin'. Tristan ======= http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]
