so does good music expire after a certain date?  i understand the urge to =
get
things 'on time', while they're relevant, but if the music is good, isn't =
it
still good six months from now?  i'm curious as to the general opinion on
this: how often do you go back and listen to something from two months ago=
?
six months?  a year?  three or four years?  and how often do you buy somet=
hing
that you missed a couple of years or couple of months ago? 

i'm thinking especially because i've picked up my autechre ALL out of orde=
r,
starting with tri repetae++, then cichilsuite, then LP5, then amber...

all that said, how is the jega album anyway?  i sort of didn't pay attenti=
on
because i didn't like his tracks on the skampler too much...ie, will it st=
ill
be good music in february of 99?

just thinkin.
