I think that good music can be short or long. It doesn't matter in my

I agree. What I was trying to say was that although I don't
really like hiphop that much, the 3MB comp gives me the
chance of listening to good hiphop without the tracks being
long enough to remind me of not really liking it - if that makes
sense... (the limitations of my English showing here perhaps).
Having said all that I do have a few more hiphop CDs
around somewhere so you could say it whetted my appetite
for more...
Think of Manuel Göttsching's masterpiece "E2-E4"..... 60 minutes full
of absolutely shivers down my spine. And it really changes very very
slowly without being boring!
Absolutely.
Rather similar to classical music then perhaps, if I go
by what I said earlier... ?
Hmmm... I better get back into hiding now... ; )
Anya, "Day by day" is absolutely great! A very unique overview on
Delsin's releases. It shows again how much good stuff is coming out on
this label! Definitely a must!
Thanks - I also checked the samples on http://www.delsin.org
(*doh*) and it's on order now, should get it on Tuesday.
Ta-ra,
Anya
Cheers, Arne

You could level the same criticism against The Black Dog's 'Music For

changes.
Or...
the whole thing works and is successful precisely because it leaves
you
wanting so much more of the same.
For me, the same goes for "3 Minute Blunts" which I like a lot despite
the fact I'm not really into hiphop at all. It's the shortness of the
tracks,
the changes, that keeps me interested.
Classical music on the other hand is a whole different kettle of fish
altogether, where a mood develops over sometimes very long
movements (German speakers help me out here please, is this the
correct translation for "Satz" in music?), and it wouldn't "sound"
right
were they any shorter.
