I think "Sameness" may be part of the problem Eno has with cutting edge tech. 128 kids all clamber to be the first on the block to get the new gizmo, and start running through the presets. I believe he does have a point about "missing the macro", but the macro in the case of most electronic dance music usually isn't the track, or even the album. It's the total mix. I doubt he hangs out for the full night at any clubs anymore. (That makes two of us, Brian.) As much as I like a lot of generative music, it can fall flat just as easily as the "stilted music" Eno complains about. -- im --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
