Oh really? So Autechre and Aphex Twin are IDM, yet aren't known by the mainstream? I tend to think a sizeable percentage of people who have heard of Prodigy have also heard of Autechre and Aphex Twin. Both of the previous have videos out, should we start finding reasons to hate them, and defile their worth in the name of "IDM?" Explain how Prodigy makes themselves known. If Liam Howlett's main purpose was to make himself popuular, like you say, than why is it a large percentage of people who have heard (of) Prodigy don't actually know who the Prodigy is? == Chris Layne =============================== Flames to my private email == == xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xx.xx.xx ====== http://www.nervosa.sf.ca.us/~coredump ==
