but does richie hawtin get away with it?? i think he might
poetry can often be very subtle and for me, minimal is subtle...
plus when he did that DE9:closer to the edit, it was nicely chopped up, never draggin on!
technodoes not have to be a complex array of percussion
sometimes the hypnotic nature of repitition will suffice!

but it helps if u are stoned......

minimal - stoned, chillin!
bangin - buzzin, clubs!
