If anything, I almost think that there is a certain lazyness that has become a lot of electronic music these days.
In those days, it was about the "sound" and you and I created images out of the oddity of sounds that helped create a nice tapestry for you to trip in and drugs were never needed or required.
Today, the majority of the sounds are sampled and sound like conventional sounds and the whole thing feels just like another Mozart piece, where the notes got inverted and a different instrument used. It seems to be way too much about the "theme" in the music than it does about the experience, or the trip itself, and this is the part I miss a lot.
I can fly just as much with 220 Volt Live as I can with Atem, but the "new experience" that Atem provides every time is a lot more satisfying than the music in 220 Volt Live.
I think that Edgar has a lot more music in him, but I would like to see him take a little left turn in Mars and play his guitar upside down a little to see what he comes up with. I think he is too comfortable with his knowledge. Not to say that it is not enjoyable, but ... I think that it can be expanded.
And this time, Edgar, make your own movie! Don't wait for someone else! And this way you can color your own images instead of anyone else!
