ahhh don't think this is the forum for MY manifesto actually ;) it's a lil too hardcore. however, 'the cause' which i was alluding to is electronic music pushing boundaries, provoking thought, breaking down established musical forms, advancing sonic tools... usual stuff that i figured most ppl into electronic music r into... as opposed to breaking the top40 being a motivator basically (not that there's anything wrong with that blah blah). > and for how long do you have to dwell on the old masters before the new > masters can receive credit for their own work? if you continually throw > back to the originators, you are never moving forward. we all know how > great juan's contribution has been. i don't think that means that no one > who has been influenced by him can be called an innovator. Absolutely, and I don't think anyone was suggesting this. Remembering where you have been doesn't stop you from moving forward. Respecting a source doesn't stop you creating and leaping off that point. > i am not sure what your 'cause' is, but to me it definitely seems contrary > to moving toward a positive musical future. well, if u don't know what it is how can u be sure it's contrary to wot u r on about ;) tsk tsk out emma mee-thod -it's in the way you groove it-
