hiya, >BT is one of the TOP electronic musicians, SOUND designer and Producer he is >not a DJ, does anyone read keyboard around here? correct. >Have you heard of a DJ that uses the KYMA, GRM tools, logic, analog synth >with some very original works ranging from classical to hard rock to >techno.....He has a very distinct style and sound, no Dj has a sound of his >own. rubbish :-) i can tell the difference between Seb Fontaine, Sasha, John Digweed and Steve Lawler within the frst few seconds of a track generally. Have a listen to Northerrn Exposure (Sasha and Digweed) for the difference in style. Def check out Steve Lawlers Dark Drums and Dark Drums 2. All DJ's but very different styles. They make different choices. Essentially it is 'instrument bigotry' at work... BT is fab, but why dont we get over the idea that DJ's are not musicians. Just because it isnt your instruments doesnt mean it isnt valid. It is nothing but the continuence of the shit I had at Uni where classical guitarists/musicians were unwilling to give validity to rock/modern jazz musos, or jazz musos hating metal, or grunge hating hiphop. It is funny, i bet everyone here things they have a fairly open mind, and catholic taste compared to joe public and yet the bullshit sectarian attitude still lives on. <sigh> JR
