Interesting that - I knew of quite a few people who did it but didn't know of they did. For definite? On all records or just a few? Reason I think it interesting is how dope that stuff sounds coming straight off Scion's laptops (and to a certain extent, though not quite as much, on the CD of this) - something I'd always put down to it being straight high quality digital direct to the system. Wonder if they use the records digitised and it sounds so dynamic as they're putting loads of effects on or if they have bits and pieces from earlier in the process of the records creation? Anyway they make the best argument for using Ableton I've heard!

Hear hear! (Friday gag) z and Tim. Different types of reproduction all distort the original sound - just in different ways. Guilherme - consider yourself trounced. Or if you wish we can continue this one in person next week - in sunny Greece!!! (I'm excited in case you can't tell).
