After some pondering I found the answer...I enjoy doing it!

Just thought I'd share that with you all :D
well, the question is really why you enjoy it, then....?
I feel it provides an otherwise unparalleled form of spiritual, emotional and creative release for me.
Yep, I agree, for me its a form of escapism, to take me to an elevated mood or deeper place (minus the chin stroking of course)

the main reason is coz i love music , i like listenin to it.. but , theres not many albums i can listen to till i think right im bored of this now whats next? i mean there are a few that ill always listen to like ok computer , dark side of the moon, amon tobins albums will never bore me. ninja tune compilations will always get a spin when everyones back for a sesh,, etc

i bet everyones thinkin of well more underground shit right now goin " ok computer?" " 2 comercial blah blah " but i think its one of the best albums of all time.. anyways point being simple -----------> i want a go!!! :idea: right then, amazon here i come :lol:
there used to be a well cheesy "sig." here
