>so what was it about this that people did NOT like? you know...that there's a real fine question. i have to admit, at first i didn't like lp5 @ all; sounded like more _cichlisuite_ stuff, and cichilisuite to me is the equivalent of listening to your stoner friends discover two-hand tapping on their guitars and then sit around practicing it endlessly until you just want to smash them SMASH THEM CRUSH KILL PLAY GABBA LOUD V/VM I MAKE YOU EARS-A BLEED WEE LAD... anyway, i thought lp5 suffered from the same problem as _cichlisquirt_ did at first, too much technicality, not enough of the weird uh, emotional stuff as say _tri repetae_; after a while i started getting into it, and it does have some really excellent moments ("arch carrier," "under BOAC," whoo) but it also has some total wank ("vose in," "acroyear2"). i'm actually revising my statistical Ae enjoyment curve graph because of it - peaking at _tri repetae_, bottoming out at _cichlisuite_ and beginning a new rise with _lp5_. i just WISH they would drop the hyper-speed thing. save them shits for the great kat, word. so, does/did anyone have a descriptive review of that bogdan ilyitch whatsit guy on rephlex? if i missed one, please send it to me off list. if i didn't, somebody post one so i can know if it's actually worth dropping 25 bucks on another over-priced rephlex atrocity. danke, [gr] -- [http://listen.to/treblequake] [eleet fnema] trentonian headline 03/23/99: WHIZ KID'S ROBOT STOLEN Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
