>>(- right not it's the 'Cologne' school, Kompact, Dial et al which gets my vote for genuine >> unforeseen music, imho). > > But if you're honest the Kompakt labels also follow a typical route, something we know as the "Cologne" sound, means they also don't invent anything really new. They have their own sound which all of the artists you mentioned have (Juan Atkins, Kenny Larkin, etc.) but in their sound they are also repetive.... that's a simple rule in music.... you will always be repetive in some way.... If "Let me think" is really 14 years old that it's much more impressive of course as it still sounds fresh and not dated. > Not sure if it's quite that simple. Kompakt have a fair amount of variety, if sticking to a basic mold most of the time. Think: Kaito, Fehlmann and a few others that aren't immediately springing to mind. That first Kompakt Pop release was rather different as well. Maybe I'm totally misunderstanding though? Been out of the [313] loop for a few weeks. I have a feeling I'm barking up the wrong tree. :/ Tristan ======= http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED]
