I think you said it VERY well already. You recognize that there is something creative and perhaps even exciting and certainly sincere. But the actual work doersn't speak to you. I think that is an extremely enlightened (and generous :)) way of looking at it. There are plenty of artists who I respect and like the *idea* of or like *some* ot their work and not all. Not just experimental musicians either. I don't really see it as a conflict and if you give them the benefit of the doubt and say they are speaking what they want to say for themselves then it's certainly valid to say YOU don't "hear" it speaking to you. I think saying so is very healthy and shows you think and process music and art on a deeper level. Of course, always leave room for changing your mind down the road too :) D_ ___________________________________________________________________ HELP WANTED PRODUCTIONS - Http://www.HelpWantedProductions.com "Bringing you the best in Organic Electronic music since we started..."
