So far I've listened to Kirlian Selections, Acidwolf, Réunion, and Programmable Love Songs and I haven't heard a single track I don't like. I don't know what took me so long to check him out, I had heard his name many times before. Acidwolf is definitely the best album I've heard since Tipper's Wobble Factor. If you've never heard him, you can hear tracks and |

He is the most important figure to have come out of America since Venetian snares. He ranks alongside Aphex twin or Picasso for creativity. |

Acidwolf and Human Action Networks are my favourites. For more flashbulbian 303 action, hear Napalm Enema Records, the most interesting label as of now. |

napalm enema? The name of that record label makes my sphincter contract, at the thought. :( hehe |

Flashbulb will be the best remembered IDM artist of the 21st century. He is the most musical out of all of the IDMers |

Agreed, he is progressing too, whereas Aphex is just rotting in his own dung. I would be far more interested in buying a new Flashbulb album than Aphex. In fact, I would look first to Square, BOC, Vibert - almost anyone over Aphex - personally I think he's finished, too frightened to take a risk. |

the best thing about this thread is the image of rdj cowering in a bathroom stall, face red and tear stained, rings of sweat stains under his arms, babbling and unable to see a way out of the fright that has gripped him, wondering if he'll ever make a lush melody to satisfy barcode again. sadly, it's too late. barcode's gone to square. |

i forgot, he's also rotting in his own dung. i prefer to think of it as compost, anyway. |

can I say that Flashbulb sucks? or did I heavily imply it by asking that question? |

The Flashbulb has at last admitted that he is the person responsible for this Tuss project. And it makes not one bit of difference to me, this guy is a fucking genius. You can tell he's an old IDM-er from the depth of his grooves, the carefree & utterly addictive 303 squiggles, the bowel-busting techno kick drums, the wonderfully skittery hi-hat action....Oh I loves 'im I do. I thought his Kirlians Circles was bloody superb, still playing it regularly (more often than my Aphex records even) but these new volumes for that label are just as great, an LP soon to drop too. It's hard to review quality rave music, track by track. This is pooky, it's got a garish grey label and is stuffed with hot funky acid madness. It's something only your head & feet can comprehend, rather than your mouth. If I was to review this with my fingers i'd say this is Shark, dolphin, steel cargo container. Blastin'. |

I just listened to . It's good, but I liked Tim Hecker's new one better. Although it's an ambient album, it feels like most of the tracks lack any depth. Some of the tracks are good and can stand on their own, but others seem like the kind of ambient music a 12 year old could make. Loud drone noises ≠ clever and unique ambient album |

Most of his tracks sound a little cheap like if they were made in FL5 with the default instruments and with dblue_Glitch running in all FX channels, his production varies too much too, needs to invest in better mastering. He does write some nice melodies and funky basslines, some of the best in the biz. |

If Flashbulb were actually the Tuss, then I will have to respect his production techniques... even if it sounds heavily like an AFX offshoot. Should he make more Tuss output, then I'll be first in line to buy. The Tuss work sounds much better overall than the other Flashbulb work IMO. |

Mask 500, quit griping about production. Some of the best damn compositions had to involve the cassettes frequency limitations (as that was the only recording device around for broke musicians), let alone computer samples with much better resolutions... why don't you go out and buy BT or some other metro-sexual shit. Sorry Mask, but I'd kill to defend lo-fi. |

The Flashbulb is not Tuss. RDJ officially is Tuss. The tracks released under Tuss are registered under JAMES RICHARD DAVID on BMI. |

Benn Jordan is a real Genius: at the back of his Reunion album is written: NO COMPUTERS WERE USED IN THE PRODUCTION OF THE RECORDING WITHIN. ps: I cant imagine how he can create his music without even 1 computer, like Anthony Rother´s track says: "ART IS A TECHNOLOGY". |

seriously it's caused me to laugh inappropriately a couple times talking to people when i would think about you can tell he's an old IDM-er from the depths of his grooves... |

He also made illegal dustbin on the latest squarepusher record |

well, it's all a load of shit; and I don't know why there's a message board entry on the Tuss of Aphex nearly every week. I think music would be more innovative without them. :) |

Flashblub is the Tuss. I have this information on the highest authority |

Quaristice is a good album, but a faky board member. |

I stumbled upon this today: (scroll down for 4 more albums) it's a bunch of Benn Jordan material that he released under various aliases. I Love Anna Log |

Derivative tripe, judging by the tracks on his myspace page. I can hear a Drukqs ripoff, Squarepusher ripoff, Donnie Darko soundtrack ripoff, 'Louisiana Mourning' sounds like The Softest Voice by Animal Collective... this cheeseball's got no freakin' class. |
