    Groovesters,

    Hmm! New word of the day "Exploratory" music which is what I equate to
    ambient, floating, free form. So with that I love the tunes to be long for
    example track 5 on DJ Krush's Code 4019 should have been 60 minutes long.
    Also I just can not say enough good about Nils Petter Molvaer's -Khmer- and
    Ben Neill's -Triptycal-. Someone mentioned a remake of "Love Hangover" now
    that would be ripe for Downtempo and also Donna Summer's "Love to Love you
    Baby" this time whom ever remakes the Summer's tune don't get on VH-1 and
    say you were forced to sing the song. If there ever was a song that Donna
    Summer's ever sang the piss out of it was "Love to Love You Baby". Another
    great remake? Lisa Standsfield's remake of Barry White's "Never Gonna Give
    You Up", I'd have to say she nailed that song thoroughly. I remember
    hearing the song in the Summer of 97 when I was living in Vicenza, Italy and
    God Bless her for that Video!!! I hear Barry White instrumentals in my head
    all the time. Arrivederci!!! Ciao!!!

    Semper Motociclismo,

    It depends on the artist. For song oriented music, I prefer shorter,
    old-style albums, but for more 'exploratory' music, I prefer for them to
    have more space to try things, and bring new ideas to their music.
