Haven't you all figured out...ALL OF THIS MUSIC SOUNDS ALIKE!

But seriously, over the years, as I've listened to more and more
electronic music, I've been amazed how many time I found out my favorite
part of a track was a sample of a sample of a sample.

Yeah, the Wink track sounds like the Bell track. So what! Think about how
many tracks use the same elements and how many more sound alike.

I don't particualrly think that the Wink track is good. Actually, it kinda
sucks. But I think its rather immature for Bell to call him out like that.
It doesn't seem like Wink did anythign that isn't standard practive in
this music.

This also isn't the first time I've heard bitching about Dan Bell's style
getting ripped off (though it is admittedly the first time Ive heard it
directly from Dan)- but I think the point I'm trying to make is that Dan
quite apparantly has sour grapes with Wink. He also certainly has sour
grapes with Plus 8. That's a lot of sour grapes for someone who's only put
out a few records and none for a very long time.

Imagine this- what if Chuck Berry sent out an e-mail bitching that Keith
richards stole his riffs. Duh!
