but sometimes me is discovering more weirder causes. like really hoping it will make me fuck with paris hilton someday. and not only her!

You'll have to get in line after Adonis!

I certainly won't be competing with you to hit that skankosaurus (Hilton, not Adonis)

it gives me something to do other than sit about masturbating endless after work.

I make music because I can't stand the music other people in Seattle make - except for Matthew's and the Lawnchair Generals

everything else is bleeps and bloops and "experiments in experimentalism" <- let me turn a REAKTOR Atmosphere plug in on and smoke some weed - oh wow I'm experimenting (give me a fucking break)

no no - this is how the experimentalist in Seattle make music

"turn on REAKTOR man."

"make a pattern, oh wait stop that's too funky - wait, that's way too funky!!! Make it less funky - make it sound like you're trying not to be funky - ah perfect."

Me and friend got drunk once and made a ableton live dj set once and purposely used the worse, glitched out, off beat, un funky samples and loops we could find - sometimes with unnessecary gaps of slience

we named it after a couple "techno" producers in Seattle "So and So high on coke live in Dallas"

we thought it was funny

pretty absurd because I'm sure there's some good dance music being made out of Seattle - it's just the "front" runners of subpop minimal sucks

i want to be better then them

on the subject of Paris

I've lost interest - I caught a glimpse of her butt which doesn't exist - granted that I'd still hit it but it's not a priority anymore

after seeing her next to Brittany's GAZONGAS it's like no comparison - I'd get at Brittany way before I laid a thick one on Paris (which I would still do if I was jacked on coke)

peace

Q: What's worse than a white guy not even trying to be funky?
A: A white guy trying to be funky.

Give me Venetian Snares over any techno DJ any day.
Taste is irrelevant though, I like a lot of your tracks even though I don't always care for your influences.
Always said Brittany Spears over the other idiot barbi doll star attention whores, but only if I could tie her up and sodomize her! Before this though it was all about violating the 'innocent', now, whatever... can't rape the willing?

because it's more rewarding that masturbation?

The most absurd thing I've been doing lately is experimenting in making minimal and glitch type beats - just because I'm interested in it

every once in a while I have to remind myself I'm still living in 1998 and stop what I'm doing, and go back to the progressive house stuff but...

funky minimal stuff has been creeping it's way into my listening sphere - I even bought some minimal I really liked off Beatport.

a friend sent me some minimal and I end up going for his tracks when I'm practicing dj sets with Ableton

I guess the most absurd thing I've been doing lately is opening my mind to new kinds of music - I'm actually being serious here

I'm trying to get my partner in crime to listen to some minimal but he's not really feeling it right now

I'm not feeling anything either because I can't perform a simple fucking y axis symmetry tesst which cost me some serious pointage - grrrrrrr

what famous movie coined this phrase "...Bruce, why do we fall? So we can get back up."

hoping sasha might play it

its kind of like a diary for me. i can listen to a tune i made from the past and it brngs back all the memories and emotions i was going through at the point. sounds pretentious bollocks but is true

Have you sent Sasha any of your music?

oh

He's pretty famous and if he charted one of your tracks it'd probably do some good - as in it might throw some more remix work or even a couple deals your way from some hot labels

but I understand
