Agreed 100%. The mix is pretty blah to me. But minimal techno is trendy now, I hear. Seriously, what's the difference between this mix and someone's own production? All of the sounds are so decontextualized that unless you have all the source material and know it inside out, there's nothing to grab on to, to think that it's a DJ mix.
The concept is fabulous, and when someone can apply it to hook-oriented music to make the ultimate mashup, then we can talk. -Gil -----Original Message----- From: Blaauw, Martijn de [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 8:12 AM To: Nik Stoltzman; [email protected] Subject: RE: (313) DE9 Transitions As said, i respect the man for taking things further and trying things new, i mean the mix is good, no doubts about that. But i do find a it bit to much fabricated, everything has been put togheter so carefully and so thought of that it doesn't sound spontaneous anymore. Dunno what it sounds like when he plays this stuff out live..haven't heard hem recently. But hey, that's great about music..it sounds and means different to everybody and that's great! Martijn
