I'm sure > this is fairly rare, but I really enjoy *buying blind* - then again, I live > peaceably with the results. You'd be surprised how good my luck is - or perhaps This is me, 100%... I may ask for a few reviews, but I dig buying blind... this is how I bought everything (back in high school i would buy obscured messed up sounding stuff that i'd never heard of... got me into bands like butthole surfers and gaye bykers on acid, which i still listen to today...) Its funny, because the 'buying blind' concept is 98% of what appeals to me about v/vm (pretty sure this thread branched from the 'v/vm sucks idm' thread)... i can never wait to see where the heck the next 12" (or 7") will go... i'm presently burning out on so much idm as where it goes ends up to be no surprise... a few nice tracks that could have been released with the last few nice tracks.... not much blind buying there when you know what you're going to get, know what i'm saying? Another reason why robert rich is so welcome to these ears... Picked up seven veils and fissures at the same time... This is the same artist??? hehehe... ok, not idm but a good example... xxxx@xxxxx.xxx[icq: 12645306] http://www.sonic.net/~brap/ sfwd prod | noisesoundnoise chris g. 1547 boston court #7, santa rosa, ca 95405
