    I agree, Kat. When I first introduced my girlfriend (who is now just as
hardcore/orgasmic about idm as I am) to "the music", I just threw some of the
craziest mu-Ziq and aphex tracks at her and instead of "This is shite!", I got
"This is awsome!" As a matter of fact, one of her fav albums is Chaos AD's "Buzz
Cancer" which, as you may know, is one big noise-fest. Oh, and with regards to
women not getting excited about finding rare releases, whenever my girlfriend
finds one you'd think someone just stuck their hand down her pants. Women can be
just as hardcore about our machine music, it's just that they are few and far
between.
