Oh and why wasn't my other post accepted? I know BOA is music-orientated but the link I posted was relevant! My admittedly non-musical contribution to the "disliking minimalism" crowd: http://casimirsblake.deviantart.com/...rali-141578980

Personally I feel minimalism has become an excuse for poor production, stretching barely-developed musical ideas across tracks that shouldn't be 1 minute, let alone 7. And dare I say, lack of talent or composition ability? Deadmau5 and his ilk can't write melodies or basslines worth a damn. On the other hand, whilst I don't enjoy everything Rob Babicz has put out, he is a happy exception to this.
Actually, as much as I dislike his music, DeadMau5 is pretty good at producing a variety of genres, to a reasonably high standard, in a very effective way.
I just don`t like it.
