>I totally agree with Che about bass tuning - even the totally great Amon >Tobin has absolutely horribly out of tune bass sometimes. yup. the sampledelic genius took a bog standard warp (jungle) bass lifted from some X-Static Goldmine sample disc, and pitched it up and down on the keyboard in Chomp Samba. that kinda stood out hey. well with all this talk about bad production, how about ye olde ye olde I-IV-V-II (or close to that) note & string progression that gets flogged to death in every *pop* genre of music such as rock, punk, idm, and d'n'b? it's maybe like everybody gets shot in the head with pop sensibilities when they're young, and don't really notice that what sounds `right' is just an echo from the constant and relentless reinforcement through radio, television, and John Williams soundtracks. now you're happy. now you're sad. now you're a little wistful. repeat ad nauseum and claim ignorance (do not pass go)..
