Apparently you can still get it.

And a few years ago, you could get it's counterpart, Quake.



I remember the marketing campaign when both were new--and when the Monkees were still making new episodes.

It's an abberation of nature that I still have a full head of hair with no gray.

so cool, to step down.

An anti-dais of sorts.

Yes, although it need to be shocking white and you need a piano.
Ideally you also need Liberace to make it truly great.

Um...yeah...i don't think he ever said that. "I just started doing this stuff and am looking for harsh criticism," i believe, was the gist of an earlier post.

No, but seriously.

Retarded.

OK, there we go. Thanks for your contribution.

By the way, I don't think "action" is the word you wanted to use there. It's kind of vague & makes you sound like you have a tough time with writing. I'd suggest switching it with "effort" or "undertaking." Also, saying "I just downloaded this stuff to check it out" is both redundant & disingenuous. But hey -- what's the internet if not a playground rife with possibility & second chances?

Mr. Graham

Know what amuses me?

You ask for "harsh criticism," yet you get all defensive once it is given.

Don't ask if you can't take it puss.

Steve V.: Don't quote gists. It muddies your "point." I knew what I was getting into by posting this stuff. If you (bother to) look back, I've responded civilly & appreciatively to both negative & positive criticism from people who took the tracks seriously & responded with insightful comments.

I admit that I forgot about the internet rule prohibiting catty responses to catty comments. Slipped my mind, I guess; but it's more of a guideline than a rule, really.


Mr. Graham

PS- Is being called retarded really either "harsh" or "criticism," anyway?

Ok I think Big Black remixes would have made more sense.

this is quite a long thread and although i read the first couple of pages (enough to see the "are turntables instruments argument), i haven't caught up on the rest.

in any event. how come no one mentioned christian marclay? is he more of an artist than a musician? are his turntables instruments or no?
