Well, yeah, but the guy asked for classical records that would appeal to an IDMer, and you must admit, most of the Rite (and Petrouchka as well--those blissful pandiatonic washes that appear from time to time) could in some respects be called proto-minimal... so there's the connection. (I also forgot about his piece Agon, which is not so closely related, but is damn cool nonetheless.) >Subject: Re: (idm) 7/8 Hip Hop? DJ Shadow: "Changeling" -- a little 4/4 here and there, but mostly in various meters: 7/4 at the beginning, 7/8 here and there... no rapping, sure, but it works...
