Genre creating??? Maybe couple a years ago. AE been doing the same thing for years. Don't get me wrong i love their music but i don't agree with most people here on AE being the biggest inovators.

Ahh, I'd agree that new Kid 606 is the shit at the moment. I've listened to it about 20 times in the last 7 days which says something...

autechre IS the best, there's just no competition. truly original, where as aphex has stayed with his "rdj album" sound for the last six years. it's all about never doing the same thing twice with ae, that, and the fact that i love their music and they seem like two nice chaps, make me love 'em even more than i love the twin.

Official statement: I love them both and I don't think I could pick which is better. Hmm.. two different artists with different ideas, one cannot debate which is better when
we're speaking of personal taste.

c'mon guys, confield is 'greater' caus it's an album that was very perfected & prepared, drukqs was what? many tracks of songs rdj has in somewhat the same style+others, put together, you cannot use drukqs to compare with confield, they are opposed in effects too.
confield is more like an ambient album to me, where drukqs tries to affect every emotion and everything.
AND don't forget that songs on drukqs are meant to be danced to... do you know a song on confield u can dance to???

err.. I thought Drukqs was an OLD album of OLD songs forced out by an eager record company? Why did people expect more of it, or it to even sound new when it clearly wasn't. Weirdos. Accept it for what it is and rate it as such..

ae is more "specific", you really have to be in the mood for listening to it — otherwise it's really boring. (i downloaded pen expers off confield once, and didn't even listened to the whole track... whereas i love acroyear2 for example... i usually keep tracks i don't like and give them a second chance, sometimes a third, a fourth... considerating it's an acquired taste, but this time i felt like i wouldn't ever get into it...)
afx is more varied and easier to get into.

Eager record company? You guys sometimes make warp out to be the bad guys. Perhaps they are being like that because RDJ acts like a spoild kid sometimes?
As far as warp is normally concerned, its the artists say when and how something is released.

Warp isn't a BAD record company.. not compared when some of the bigger ones out there..
And who here knows Richard D. James? I don't think his attitude is the point though.. my point was that warp asked him for something.. he gave it to them as a lot of it was going to get on the net anyway... Why did everyone expect more?

"Drukqs sounded like one of the most generic IDM albums I have ever heard. "
"songs on drukqs are meant to be danced to... do you know a song on confield u can dance to???"
"Drukqs is boring. Confield is interesting. "
...a "generic idm album"?! wtf??? this makes me wonder if you even listened to it of if somebody got the wrong album... i don't know a lot about idm, but i never came across another idm track which sounded like drukQs...

im still into afxs middle stuff (his classics being okay and his new stuff being fairly...well all sounding too similar...to me, anyway)
and ive only heard tri repetae by autechre to me theure pretty even.
repetition can sometimes build a song, tho its not like the more patterns you use, the better the song.
it gives you something to hold onto
what the fuck am i trying to say?
i liek squarepusher way more than either of them and go plastic is by far my fave idm CD ever (that ive heard of)
with jega - geometry coming seconds closely (but thats also coz i only got it the other week)

I'm liking Autechre better than ANYONE right now, they're my current faves. But Aphex was funner to get into, his stuff is so much more varied and exciting. He's the Beatles of the electronic world, does everything well.
I'd say overall I like RDJ more, but it's soooo close...

yeah, I love both Aphex Twin and Autechre... sometimes I'm really into Aphex Twin, sometimes it's Autechre... now it's BoC though... and although I know everyone will disagree, I think BoC are the most musically talented out of Autechre, Aphex Twin, and BoC... maybe not technically talented as them, because BoC's music is not as wild and crazy, but I think they're musically more talented, meaning they compose better melodies and all that jazz... but it's hard to compare the three, because they are so different... I'm just posting this based on my personal preferences...
