exactly. and if you think people in the techno community arent
victims of specialty marketing, youre wrong. amongst most music
heads that ive talked to, amp fiddler is the man. anyone who has
given the guy's record a listen has been way into it. he writes
good songs, his production is clean and funky, his personal music
history is very obvious. his set at movement last year was off the
chain, he totally killed it. despite the good timeslot (9:00 or so
iirc. it was definitely very dark and close to the last set) at
the underground stage the number of folks listening was very very
small, possibly the smallest crowd i witnessed the whole weekend.
perhaps if more people had been there more people would be
believers in the quality of the man and his music.
