fav:::: Caustic Window or AB3 least:: Drukqs. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
your status is wizard and you think druqks is richard's worst album? PISH POSH! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ICBYD is the best, it rocks + Richard had something to prove, Drukqs is 'lackadaisical'. remeniacent of the french aristocracy!!!!!!! What I'm saying is, all this praise has made Richard think he can do anything and everyone one will continue their praise. Drukqs sucks. I don't care how many plug-ins were converged. |

favourite: I Care To Write The Full Album Title Because You Don't Least favourite: Selected Ambient Works 74-85 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lackadaisical? perhaps the mood of the album was just a bit more serious than others, which are mainly jolly or full of rhythmic energy. perhaps the drastic change in style threw you off guard, with the prepared piano tracks and all. i think the composition and arrangement are far superior to anything he's made yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vomitron: its got good stuff on it, but its mostly bullshit! If anything the Wizards should like his old stuff more... true AFX. |

fav´s_Richard D. James & ICBYD worst_Caustic Window & Expert Knob |
||||||||

|
|
arg, well, a few tracks, like gwely mernans, were lacking, but i think even those rounded out the overall mood of the album. but you have to give him mad props for the new prepared piano songs and some of the drill and bass stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
arg, well, a few of the tracks were lacking, like gwely mernans, but you've got to give him mad credit for expanded his music that much more with the prepared piano tracks, which i think are great, and the new drill and bass stuff. it was hard to get used to the radical change, but i still think the album as a whole is fantastic |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
did i post that twice???? ewps. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well the second post wasnt even coherent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There is no mad props from me for doing shit trax. he can do that in his own time. I'm sure if Richard heard a 30 track album he'd have some shit to say about some tracks. Drukqs is sub-standard, don't brainwash yourself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i guess i'll just go back to the repetitive simplicity of his older hardfloor tracks which youre so found of. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or not |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

fav: come to daddy / saw2 least: uhm ..ehhm...dunno. probly Caustic Window compilation (even though i love on the romance tip & cordiacatron) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Have you heard older aphex trax? It's not 'hardfloor' as in frankfurt rubbish. I'm not wasting my time argueing with you, check some good music and stop being a leech. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
saw ii & caustic window? excellente! expert knob twiddlers? why bother? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OLD AFX kick ass man. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
then dont waste your time, and yes ive heard the older tracks and i was trying to classify the caustic window sound as best i could with a well known genre, and i noticed you didnt argue the repetitive simplicty aspect, ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mr mackey was talking sense drukqs r bad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no one can touch druqks, it's on a whole 'nother level of complexity and precision; and above all, whatever inspired those songs was surely interpreted by richard in a way which few others could match in its uniqueness. he oozes ever ounce of strength from each note and complements it with noise that would melt your phace if you weren't prepared. i don't know anyone who's heard 54 Cymru beats for the first time and been able to listen to it all the way through without adjusting the volume. i think we should welcome the new RDJ and all his strange noises, hower poignant or opposed to our diatonic tonal brainwashing. hopefully druqks is only the tip of the unconventional iceberg. |
||||||||

|
|
its not repetative?!?!?!??!??!!!!!!! you need to listen more intently to the little changes, change ups and layers he does in those songs,, thats what makes them so golden! he didnt get famous for drukqs or known as the king of techno for drukqs... not at all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No man... Drukqs isnt on a new level of complexity at all..... |
||||||||

Phresch: Selected Ambient Works 74-85?? wasn't he like 3 years old 1974? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't argue with simpilcity or repitiveness. If a loop rocks, it rocks. With each loop it confirms what I thought before, it rocks. if it's shit and it loops that confirms how shit it is. Have you heard any 'Hip-Hop' vomitron? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay, i admit, there are minute changes, minute changes... oh boy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and i especially liked the new remixes he did: 120bpm and 168bpm, great songs. i have indeed heard this "hip-hop" you speak of, ive also heard good music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no one said druqks didn't have any repetition. perhaps you should give it another listen 'reflex.' complexity doesn't exclude repetition, in fact, it relies on it. the difference between druqks and all other music is when the parts repeat; they are intentionally 'out of whack.' moreover, the parts themselves are very finely tuned; and i doubt richard really gives a damn if you like it as long as you spent the $20. heh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, the Men remixes were cool! I'm not trying to be controversial. Drukqs was/is shit it's a collection of non-tracks. There are maybe 5 tracks that are good. Do you really want to buy another Album in the future with 30 tracks that are as revoloutinay as these? I'm sorry for being confrontational but drukqs is soo weak compared to a million Mp3 artists! I'll post my music for you to ridicule when I've finished...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he obviously got tired of the same old bullshit and decided to start something else; i am of the opinion that RDJ has only just begun aphecting music as we know it. if lots of people liked druqks, it would be considered a failure. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd buy anything with the aphex name on it. it doesn't matter how ridiculous i first find it; what matters is that i give it a chance. i didn't like druqks nearly as much as i do now the first time i heard it. some people have a bit more trouble getting passed first impressions. |
