obtained in dublin and i thought it was beautiful and relevant: “no music is natural. music is produced only after people invest strenuous and extended effort to gain intimate control over vibrating systems such as vocal cords, a violin, or a synthesizer. all musical instruments are highly contrived technological artifices, they are differentiated not by their degree of naturalness but by the technological periods in which they were developed. the string instruments were perfected when woodworking was a flowering technology, piano designers utilized the processes of a fully industrialised society and the electronic music medium is being developed now at a time when electronic technology is dominant.” -robert a. moog 1997

Well suck me sideways. You’ve followed me through my life even in the years we were off on different paths (actually I guess I followed you since you’re 4 months older). Now you’ve done it again. I recently got into downtempo myself. I just love the stuff, it streams all day and night when I’m working at the computer. Stop being a freak, let me live my own life without finding out later it was really your life I was living all along!
