    i actually like to keep the 2 things separate since those genres are.
    MOreover i prefer the format of a one mail each instead of a daily crammed digest with no pictures or character editing.....
    Christina i think that because a record company or a radio plays both genres does not imply the 2 list should do soo too...
    keep the faith always good sets on citrona:-)

    Hi guys,

    I had a thought...I think I've been a member of this list (AJ list) on and
    off for about 3.5 years or so. I've been a member of the downtempo list
    about 4.5 years. The downtempo list is usually very active. Most of you here
    would really like it but please note it seems to cover more of the
    trip-hop-funk side vs the jazzy-brokenbeat side though there are fans of
    each genre on both of these list. Cool thing is they too also talk about
    gear, software, live shows...so on and so on. If someone request feedback on
    a song they are working on most of the time someone is around to reply with
    feedback. New-comers are always given a warm welcome and I also might add
    that the humor of the list highly outweighs the arrogance that comes with
    formats such as this.

    So what would you guys think about merging the two list somehow? The
    moderators of the dt list are very nice guys and I am more than sure they
    would love the idea.
