Firstly - good luck Mark on your future venture.
People may diss u - but i the times i saw you play out - you got my vote. Your spirit and enthusiasm always came across when you played - so what if you missed a few beats now and again on the way....
I've been a kandi fan for some years - and i cannot see the watering down of the brand from my viewpoint. Funky/vocal house has grown in mass over the past few years - and a lot of people see that as a bad thing - but a good track is a good track however popular it may be - and however many people know it..... there is - and always will be a superior attitude in clubland's elite - but the appeal of Kandi for me was the lack of such attitude - it was the music the and the crowd - and thats what mattered.
Best of luck with the Tokyo Project - and long live the rest of Kandi as well - there's room enough in this world for everyone.
.....oh and 'mambobirdette' - try not to get personal with people and try and project a myth of your own importance in internet forums - its not pleasant.....
