well, i dont hear the connection in this music like i do in other stuff from berlin. i mean, im a huge basic channel, soundhack, etc fan. i like the sleeparchive stuff too. you can hear it. this minimal stuff sounds more like progressive house, the music's crossover to john digweed cemented that in my mind. for example, deep dish used to have obvious connections to what happened in detroit and chicago. where they are now, there's no connection. and thats about where minimal stuff is these days, IMO. tom
