    Default Questions For Ben Sims

    Hey guys,

    After finding out that Ben did in fact start up the **** MINIMAL Facebook Group, I though it would be a good idea to try to get an interview with him for Core Magazine, cause he obviously has a lot to say and I think it would make really good reading.

    I was gonna bung him some questions over today but then I thought it might be nice to ask some of you guys what you would ask him. Keep it sensible and I'll include the questions in what I send him :)

    ooooh! good idea.


    My question would be: Obviously the Minimal movement has had an impact on you, a pretty crappy one at that; how did it directly effect you to the point that you felt you had to take it to such a public platform i.e the Facebook Group?

    I think it may have done you know.

    It was always a pretty alternative place.

    Here is a question for Ben

    "Would you say Minimal has done the Techno scene more harm than good?"
    All u need is a good ear for music!

    All time top 5 electronica tracks/albums.

    All time top 5 non-electronica tracks/albums.

    Where does he see electronic music in 2 years.

    Is techno as forward thinking as it should be? Or are most playing it safe and not innovating.

    Who is, imo, innovating in techno or electronica in general.

    Fave album of the past 12 months.

    Will you do me a mix for my radio show.

    My question was sensible.
    I`m sure he gets bored of the usual techno questions he has been asked a billion times before.
    Ask him about TOTS
