ha! yeah, probably are.... so, say, using Herbert as an example as I watched him last night - I didn't feel it was bad as such, I didn't really like it, but it amazes me that people can describe this kind of project as being "cutting edge". If so many people can enjoy it, like pop music, can it be described as 'bad'? maybe it can I guess. admittedly, the big band didnt just play old numbers, they played a couple of his compositions too - the one I remember most is "cafe de flore". But, they turned a pretty fantastic electronic record into something pretty average - by using the band to play this song, it showed up the strength of the song as there was nothing quirky or exciting about it when played by the big band. Gawd, I'm talking myself round in circles here, I don't even know what my point is and more to the point I'm a hypocrite because I love the sound of 'old' techno, and would be perfectly happy if people made 'old' sounding records in this vein still. so, probably best to ignore me really and take everything I say with a pinch of salt. it's interesting to see what everyone thinks of it though. alex _________________________________________________________________ --------------------- End of message text -------------------- This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
