Yes, I understand your point of view too...Long & repetitive structures
are
generaly more into an atmospheric track, and fast changes structures
into
some tracks with hights moments...true...the best way is to find both of
these sides in one tracks...probably the most difficult thing to do...
I think that a guy like Kenny larkin is able to do that.
cheers
