and so what if im irish.. that makes me thick?

this is the problem with wonky, and where it all went wrong....

Miditonal? there is a lot more to being funky than just wacking the swing quantise up to 75%...

Danny, there is a lot of stuff from the mid nineties that miditonal is a very poor imitation of...

try checking these out, of much higher standard and quality:

http://www.discogs.com/label/Mosquito
http://www.discogs.com/label/Sativae
http://www.discogs.com/label/Predicaments up to Pred 12
http://www.discogs.com/artist/Cristian+Vogel
http://www.discogs.com/label/Force+Inc.+Music+Works (the odd release here and there)
http://www.discogs.com/artist/Neil+Landstrumm

go out and search, I mean, maybe it's a matter of taste, but listening to the music, and after seeing the attitude of some of the people involved I'm really not into it... miditonal was a pure bandwagon jump, a pure cash in, so for people such as myself, it's kind of sad to see people like that getting so much recognition when many of the originators go un-noticed... I guess this is why I ended up hating the "wanky" word so much, it made everything too defined, and also, as I've often said before, it associated artists like Landstrumm, Vogel, youngman, and many other very talented musicians with a bunch of bandwagon jumpers who really have no idea of what it's really about..
maybe I sound snobbish here, but seriously, I keep an open mind about most stuff, but a lot of the music that came out of east germany over the past 5 years left me feeling pretty cold, plastic drum sounds, cheesy synth lines, and far, far too much distortion..... just an opinion of course, if you really like it, fair enough, but it's a bit of an east german version of hard house to me....

actually, check this out: http://www.discogs.com/release/1129796
made me feel like throwing all the machines out of the window when I first heard it, the rule book is rewritten yet again.... if you don't get it, it's just too far ahead for you :P

hahahaha eeeeezy mark....wanna of yer tunes is on abstract?? - schranz label??

[clubsynthetic]

lol

i think Miditonal does sound samey, i do like some tracks but not them all as do others i imagine. I don't think i'll write them off 'tho 'cos it seems like a bandwagon to folk. and that Vogel example you gave Crime I have heard before and it is good.
