||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No they are shit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bullshit. They are OK. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

Dont buy them unless you want a serious head fuck, they are warped, out of time, distorted melody, totally crazy....... |

Actually, there are topics on this every three weeks or so, so anyone interested in these 3"s should just browse the board to get a bunch of opinions on it. Most people think they are crap but I like them. I guess I'm not madly in love with AFX the way the rest are. |

not worth getting imo. i hate the whole concept. remixing afx tracks without permission and then sell them. lame. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
too right, i like a bit of mentalness as much as the next guy but these tunes have absolutely no sense of structure, it sounds as tho a monkey has sat on the mixing desk, during remixing, seriously poo |
||||||||
|
|

|

Yep. I've got them both, the only AFX related purchase I've regretted. Still, as sad as it sounds, I'm glad I got them purely for the resale value (they were limited to a few thousand copies). Phob: Make your own one- release all the fan remixes from here on CD without Richard's or the remixers' permission ;) |

yeah, i like the concept. ;) |

thanks everyone, i saw them on ebay and had considered buying them awhile back, but i think ill hold off for now... |

I like them. They are free and often funny and some of them really bring up some parts of AFX's tracks that you would normally ignore. But suit yourself... |

What are the 3"?? I don't understand. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
3" means 3 inch. They're like normal CDs, just smaller. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
CDs that are 3 inches in diameter. |

OOps, Ceri was faster, sorry. |

Seeing as you defended them, I decided to give them another listen. They're not as bad as I recall actually... Still, hardly the best music in the world. |

I hated what I heard |

well, it is a"reactive art" as Nietzsche would call it so it strongly corresponds with something outside the actual work of art, in this case with the original AFX tunes. But some of these tracks are just jokes and some have a life of their own and are quite good. The whole point is that some of these tracks IMO can stand on their own two feet which can not be said for most "reactive art". Kid 606's new album (there was a topic on this some days ago) is another example: some tracks are excellent and despite the fact that they are reworkings of someone else'e works, they have essential qualities that give them "a right to live" and I'll be listening to them in years to come. Other are just pissings on popular tunes, without lasting power beyond initial laughing... My point about v/vm is that they (he actually, as it is only Kirby at the moment I think) are being extremely fair: after desecrating popular family tunes, christmass songs, britney spears etc., they decided to turn the sniper toward the "community" itself and that is excellent to me. If we're going to take a piss, we should take a piss even at ourselves. AFX is enough of a pop-icon to be treated this way and the fact that they did these two 3"s confirms his status. I just can't believe how people on this MB get pissed every time somebody mentiones these EPs |

I'm not pissed, I just don't like them and don't see why I should |

Meho, your GF is pretty sick if she's holding a dead cat in that photo ;) I get what you're saying about v/vm too. In which of Nietschze's works does he talk about reactive art (I'm pretty certain I've heard that term before, it may have been in the original texts or a critique of his work). |
