i like minimal, or have done in the past, but i'm really not buying this new found popularity... as mark said, it's all been done before via hood and even people like emmanuel top and the early plastikman stuff. A lot of the new stuff seems to be covering old ground, which isn't that bad in itself, but the whole thing just comes off as being pretentious and horribly indulgent. Like people are competing to 'out-minimal' each other...
