Re: [microsound] [OT] Glut of new cds of just no money to spend?




for those of us "old" enough to be remember how exciting the first time we heard Oval, Mego, 12k, or any of the other seminal microsound releases, there are two thing to keep in mind:


1. We've been listening to this stuff for a while, so naturally we are more critical than we used to be, and have likely developed more specific tastes.

2. The genre/trend/fad has been around long enough to develop into it's own cliches, and to amass a large group of people who think of their work as being part of the genre/trend/fad. This is not bad or good, it just means there is a lot more out there.

Both of these collude to make us "old jaded farts".
