i guess i feel i must speak up for the other side. of what i have of
panasonic (kulma & vakio) i love them. i havent had the chance to see
them live, but i can see how a live performance has the chance to be
_very_ different from their recordings. no, panasonic has no groove.
they arent trying to groove. panasonic is minimal (taken to extremes at
times) simple, thoughtful, enjoyable, listenable, zen-like,
trance-inducing, and it made my friend essej say "this is the only music
that i have heard that caused physical pain. please turn it off."
im a sucker for art.
(does anyone remember the label -danger music-?)
