A lot of people don't like Brikha's latest stuff and they have said so - this has nothing to do with showing respect at all, it's just saying what you think

Aril Brikha is a modest little guy from Sweden. I have this wonderful memory of dancing like a maniac directly in front of his setup at a live performance in Paris. After his set I said "thank you!" and he replied "no, thank you! You really kept my energy going!" (or something to that effect). What's not to respect? I listened to his Kompakt release several times today trying to see why anyone would call it crap; I like it very much actually. But either opinion is subjective. I realized what a waste of energy it was to think of music in terms of love or hate, good or crap. I either like something or I am indifferent. But that takes the fun out of beard stroking techno snobbery. Judging from the responses already I am going to assume that this post is going to spark off a few more interesting responses. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2007 2:04 PM To: Christopher O'Grady; list 313 Subject: RE: (313) Aril Brikha Well it's true - look what happened to Derrick May.
