Well, the 'column' IS called Street Beat. Though after a reading of some
of the other reviews, I think there's more emphasis on Beating than
anything
else. And he wants us to not only send a CD but PAY him! This jerk ought
to work for one of the Big 5 record companies!
Note that the 'writer' not only criticizes the supposed 'ease of
production'
that comes with Digital/CD-Recorders, coming just short of using the word
'masturbation', but does so using an even easier tool for such sloppy
self-gratification: his keyboard.
