the problem with baiting the press is they'll always try to get you into a career dead end and run you dry. It's what they did with Goldie.

Can't see that happening with db cos he's not on a sleb tip (neither is tricky btw) whereas that is clearly a big objective for goldie

Yeah and unless that's done extremely well pissing about can just turn into 'not getting it.' It's like the way people like Paradox will always be better beat choppers than Square and em lot. Squarepusher can be fun, in a toilet humour way but thats it.

I agree it's a fine line, emperor's New clothes going on here and there

I meant you as an example (no shade intended) I could never get invested in an artist. that seems to be some weird thing with music fans and where I differ with them. I'm much more into machines and fragmentation.

Yeah I agree it's weird. I need a focus and I focus on the person

It's a bit of young modern bohemian signifier. That whole Brooklyn loft chic. Sour dough spirituality. Instagram pics of garden yoga. Has loads of plants and the wall is full of posters in a gallery line up. Likes the organic sound, real earthy, world healthy, environmentally friendly sound.
