this is one the closest drukqs style imitations i've heard if you know if any better (barring steinvord), plz post |

i have already collected this pokemon (esp. appropriate analogy for detrimentalist). in before someone says "but afx sounds better when you slow it down." that hasn't been true for the last five years at least. |

i think shock one has a lot of potential. everyone knows already. his shit is a lot less dense, though, more just straight-up D&B... but there are moments |

wow i've really come to hate straight-up dnb |
||||||||
|

yeah that whole album is filled with exceptional gems probably one of the best idm albums ever made imo |

It's not my favourite Aphex release but this thread has kind of reminded me that Drukqs really has it's own sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thought that was called cum on the eggs for a second. some nice stuff in there, but I think RussellDust is right, it's pretty hard to match Aphex's sound, and that release only very vaguely reminds me of drukqs |

ooooh. thanks for that link! i see a new album entering my library |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that album is a must have, imo, but be aware that the rest of the tunes are nothing like this one... |
||||||||

LOOOOOOOOOOooooOOL |

yeah, it was more of a Tuss EP, but it dips a toe in the water through the drum programming. a "sound" is nothing but a collection of preferred strategies and tricks and hardware and software ricocheting off of mood and personality. unless you spend ages tallying up the minutiae, i think we're stuck at "yeah, this sounds like it could be off drukqs." despite the massive potential for disagreement, there, i think most of us would actually agree on what's drukqs-y and what's not. funny that |

No heart or soul in Venetian Snares! Whatsoever. Chopping up audio of your wife felching a horse's ringpiece and putting it over an Amen in 11/4 isn't the most genial musicianship to mine ears at least |
||||||||

you've really disappointed me, i must say. 1) On 11/4: He's said in interviews that he very much enjoys listening to 4/4; he has no problem with it, but he just can't seem to enjoy writing it. As such, I do not view the time signatures as a gimmick. Asking snares why he does 11/4 is like asking why a dog walks on four legs. That's just the way god made 'em, mang. 2) Felching a horse's ringpiece: After seeing some video of him threatening to "injure a frenchman" I felt he was absolutely genuine but also immensely immature, child-like even. However, he is a musician whose records I buy, not my room-mate, so I don't give a fuck if the samples fell out of a horse's anus, I just care if the record is good or not. Nymphomatriach was not terribly good, no argument there. However, it's just one of a zillion, and many ARE good. 3) On soul: Blink and you'll miss it, but it's there. Since we're all up on Detrimentalist, take Eurocore MVP: Amongst all the manic energy, there are blasts of deeply moody chording. Then the fact that it's easy to ignore his slow tracks, since the fast ones are so flashy: Last two trax on the album get much more directly moody. I need to listen to Huge Chrome Cylinder Fing again, recall that being pretty moody. Liked it but I was busy then and never got back for more than one or two repeat listens for some reason |

It's all technique and attitude, much like Squarepusher, without that special somethin'. Granted there's more heart in Squarepusher's stuff, particularly early on, but he too lacks that spark of creativity that screams out loud in so many other artists work |

i never went for piss, fart, and dick jokes myself. i prefer absurdist, monty-python, dada, RA Wilson, discordianism, whatever, obviously. sometimes i can genuinely contribute to a watmm-style thread about poop, but most days i leave that to the professionals |

this thread is absolute shit and you are a complete idiot. people like you, are the reason why aphex twin will never, ever, release an album again |

i really don't understand why people even bother to write in trashing me, especially the ones that never bother to sign in otherwise. just close the web browser and don't let me take any more of your time. joke's on you if you put more into it |

A friend from planet Ebubu noticed that you only ever speak to an audience, never to someone in particular. I'm starting to see it now. |

pretty much. i'd stay home and talk to myself, but i need occasional noise from external creatures in order to jostle me out of local maximums before can reach even greater heights of being-up-my-own-butt-ness. in the industry, we call this process . |
||||||||
|
|

|

Aye. I would have been pretty surprised if you found somethin so thin as that funny since we have a largely similar taste in comed. |

Thread needs more R3FL3X, then it would SignedUpToLoL worthy anyway I met snares once and he's a nice chap, nothing like what people seem to think based on his musical/artistic personality if that even exists! Plus I do enjoy a handfull of his tracks, but live he's even better. |
