You know that they tossed around the idea of calling it RealPlayerPolitik until they considered the possible lawsuits.That way they could have brought up all kinds of questions like:what is real music? Is a laptop an instrument? Who's playing who? What is authentic in our hurly burly world of appropriation and shifting definitions.But I like DAT too,cuz it reminds me of Redman and the subtle racial snobbery of the laptocracy.

'Can electronic music with no words (I don't theirs does, does it?)have an emotional impact, narrative, or message?', or something like that.

can you ask them a little about their workflow??
the music seeems like such a unique combination of digital & analog, I wonder what their writing process is like...
do they start tracking sounds first?? collecting samples?? writing structure? fleshing out beats?

haha... also, I wonder why the triplets in the very beginning of 're-folk' sound half missing in my headphones but not on my speakers... both channels are there- does this happen to anyone else???

This is a bit late, but maybe it's still possible to ask them
by e-mail or something ... i would be interested in knowing what
they think of the following quote (from Brian Eno):

"Only neo-vegetables enjoy using computers the way they are at the moment.... You're just sitting there, and it's quite boring. You've got this stupid little mouse that requires one hand, and your eyes. That's it.... No African would stand for a computer like that."
