in the meantime however, reverb & such can still be used, but if they are, it should be in an imaginative way, perhaps akin to the way electroacoustic music uses them. i've had a lot of fun recently playing with reverbs & delays in audiomulch: gives an almost psychedelic quality to sounds otherwise rather bleak. all in all it probably makes the music more approachable, not so much because it adds a 'catchy' element but simply because it adds new sounds for your ear to hang to.
yeah.. i like using effects as sounds in themselves..
