I know that, I like good pop music, like DMX Krew, Sam & Valley, J. J.

They are famous, but I don't like them. I don't like the way of their programing, their sound. There isn't anything new in their music, their sound is too good, and I don't like nitty and clean production. I like dirtycityfuckedupnewskoolelectronica.... > c) pop? dmx krew is mind numbing, bubblegum, pop bullshit. a lot of > "underground" music is pop. now, i didn't mean to go off on a anti-dmx rant > and some pop music can be great. i consider a lot of cylob's stuff to be > "pop" music. corny, but wonderful melodies. light-hearted songs. a good > amount of rephlex releases are pop. albeit, distorted and odd, but pop. and > i love cylob, by the way. that wasn't a slag. DMX cannot be compared with Orbital. If Orbital is dance, then what about DMX ? imo DMX is hundreds times more dance than Orbital. DMX can move ya, he got a funk....this funk makes you move. And Orbital are neither good to dance, neither good to listen I cannot help it, i don't like thier music. OK maybe I still like some of the tracks from Orbital 1. > np. merzbow 'eat beat eat #1' (this, by the way, is not pop) merzbow isn't pop, and I don't like it either respect Rob
