Far be it from me to start harping on "keeping it real" and "tha underground" BUT... The fact remains that because electronica and dance are niche markets (so far) they are for the most part separate from the larger music industry sausage machine. I'd like people to be able to make a living from their music, but believe me 'mersh record companies (most of them) are base exploiters and destroyers of talent. The other side of the coin is this: it takes a rare individual to have more than one or two really good tracks in them, and an even rarer one who can remain true to their art and grow with it, rather than listen to all the record company hacks that want to mold them into identical velveeta unit shifters.
