i know where you're coming from. but i suppose loads of peeps not as nerdy about production as us lot wouldn't even notice.
back in those days, filesharing wasn't that big but now i suppose just about everybody has say the no kick series etc.

i have rediscovered so many loops i have on my hdd or cds in (famous) tunes it can be astonishing. this is a good situation for us as we can't get away with shit like that anymore, hehe.

coming to think about d'n'b which has centered around 1 well known break a great deal.... now that's really formulaistic ;)
