well, i think it is about exploring the boundaries. richie seems obsessed with pushing the boundaries of making the original artist irrelevent. other people (david mancuso being one) is interested in making the original artist the only thing that is relevent. both ideas are more interesting theoretically than they are on the dancefloor! i think the happy medium is in the middle somewhere, and i can see advantages to leaning a little bit to either side (lets call them the jeff mills approach and the theo parrish approach since they are 2 good examples of each side of the argument but on a far less extreme level) but going all the way to either end is pretty stupid and limiting. tom
