I remember when I was 14, I was buying polygon window, the instinct compilations, altern 8, detroit techno comps and anything else I could get my grubby little hands on. Now Im 16, diggin Fax records, em:t, aphex twin, orb, etc. None of my friends really liked any of it except for when they were stoned or trippin. Sometimes 14 year olds can have good taste and to see a kid with a faded Nirvana shirt pick up a Chemical Brothers or Orbital cd or whatever makes me look back. Because somewhere back then, I was that kid in search of new music. But then, to me, it was real since I was in search of the unknown sound to my ears while now, if this scenario comes true, it was shoved in their face by record marketing regimes. Music is music, what you like is what you like but always listen to the music for who you are and not what it is. I hope that a generation of new IDM, ambient, techno listeners will hear this out for all the music that they listen to. Time to quit the tangent before I think its really happening, William Cordray - xxxxxx@xx.xxx
