What a crock of shit!! I've been listening to techno since 1989 and I STILL comb through the records about once a week. I truly believe the more music you hear (and I am speaking in regards to electronic music), the more it takes to impress you. If you are pretty knowledgeable, then you aren't going to be as easily impressed as someone who is new to this style of music. Maybe you are right, perhaps mediocrity isn't my wavelength. > I've just got something against saying 'this music is rubbish' > because how do I know what the artist was trying to say? Who fucking cares what the artist is trying to say? I don't sit and listen to music wondering if the musician was sexually aroused, depressed, or whatever. I listen to it for what it does for me, not the creator. > >I think Jega has lots of talent, but he hasn't done anything in a long > >while that really excites me. > > > >It doesn't do a whole hell of alot for me.

And alot of the drum n bass that is coming out it way way better than Spectrum. I look forward to hearing new stuff from him, hopefully it will be better.
