not so much a death- i think it just got overshadowed by its two followers- hip hop and techno. > I for one think it's about time electro got the respect > it's been long overdue (or have i missed something?) > respect is different than popularity. popularity is a mixed blessing in that it does get more people respecting great music, but it also usually ends up generating a lot of crap. maybe it's still a good thing overall, i know there are differing viewpoints- i usually resort to cynicism :) -p --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
