extract out of aphex interview Another term that's been used to describe your work is 'intelligent dance music.' I just think it's really funny to have terms like that. It's bascially saying 'this is intelligent and everything else is STUPID.' It's really nasty to everyone else's music. (laughs) It makes me laugh, things like that. I don't use names. I just say that I like something or I don't |

he's also talking about music he likes Drexciya The Quest Erik Satie 'Trois Gymnopédies' Return of the DJ's Squarepusher Big Loada Luke Vibert Big Soup Batucada The Sound Of The Favelas Best of Acid 1 Ween Pod and Pure Guava Les Baxter The Exotic Moods of Les Baxter Serge Gainsbourg Tod Dockstader 'Luna Park' Drexciya are from Detriot, part of Underground Resistance- I really like them. Return of the DJ's is music from California- it's avant-garde hip-hop, taking it to another extreme with a lot of excessive scrathing and cutting up. Batucada are from South America with really, really fast rhythms with screaming and shouting with no songs. Best of Acid 1 is old school from '88 with all of these Chicago producers and acid tunes. I love Ween- I really, really like them and everything they do. I'm well into Les Baxter- a right weirdo. I have this double CD by Gainsbough that I like a lot with 'Lemon Incest' on it. I've got CD's by Nurse With Wounds and Harry Partch with me but I haven't listened to them yet |

i hate the term idm, and i don't think of RDJ's music as dance music at all, even if some of it is dancy its for listening to before anything else |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wonder how such a term was coined |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
use braindance then dammit..... i like the term idm...its perfect, and its true. aphex=sophisticated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, idm was practically coined by aphex fans. |
||||||||

about selling records I'll probably sell more albums as things go on, but I'm still surprised to sell one hundred. I can't comprehend people actually buying my records anyway. So when you sell worldwide like a hundred thousand records, I just can't imagine it -- like a hundred thousand people buying my records. It's pretty bizarre. I wouldn't care if they didn't buy my music anyway." |
||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|
aphex=sophisticated therefore Aphex is for listening to not dancing to therefore the word dance should not be used to describe his music even if intelligent is before it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Braindance is just as bad as IDM, and even MORE cheesy sounding! Nevertheless... IDM is so convenient, and everyone knows what you're talking about when you use it, which artists you mean... so I'll use it anyway. The DANCE part pisses me off... it's not dance... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i hate the dance thing too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah trying to change the term idm would be like trying to change the name of aphex |
||||||||
|
|

cept braindance works |

inteligent drum music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
''inteligent drum music?'' Nope. What about Selected Ambient Works Volume 2? IDM is here to stay, unfortunately... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
RDJ is electronic music thats it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
EEM "Experimental Electronic Music" Would be a better term perhaps? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

about his tank hehe Okay, the question we're all dying to know -- how fast does it go? "Forty-five mile per hour forwards and backwards. It's pretty fucking noisy though, if you go that fast. It's deafening near the engine. Once you go over thirty, it's so loud. But it'll do 45 over rough terrain -- really hilly, bumpy land." |

|
|
intelligent dope music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep its Expermintal and its Electronic, very accurate |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
naw, braindance. braindance works. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
braindance, i love that term acuse well, it explains it perfectely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
braindance won't work because its not dance music! dance music implies techno, trance, drum n bass, stuff thats made to be played in clubs ...RDJ's music is for listening to and lots of it is not dancy, like SAW2 and half of Drukqs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What? If IDM doesn't explain it well, how does braindance? Brain=intelligent Dance=dance Am I missing something? |
||||||||

about public toilets "In Seattle, all the public toilets didn't have any doors on them. It was well strange. What's that all about? I had to take a shit, and they're was like twenty people in a row going for a shit, and I was like, "uh." So after about ten minutes, I thought it was quite wicked actually. I was quite into the idea of it." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no doors on public toilets??? Thats fucked up!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
perhaps u should try it out u might get into idea of it aswell hehe |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There are tons of IDM advocates on this site that think the Term is cool or fine. It sucks. |
||||||||
|
|

braindance doesnt mean danec music it means, it make syour brain dance brain candy ie. your brain enjoys it ie. your brain is dancing inside your head. not actual dance music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but it implies dance music unless ur explanation is attached to it at all times, i don't like any name with "dance" in it for RDJ, it doesn't suit his music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i get impression that people that come to his gigs, usually try dancing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so, ppl dance at lots of gigs, even rock gigs and nsync gigs... that doesn't mean his music is dance music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont want to argue that i dont mind how his music is called actually i just like music or i dont thats it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Backstreet Boys make the brains (as redundant as they are) of little girls ''dance''... it's candy for their little sugar sweetened medullahs. Besides, braindance sounds so... BAD... automatically conjures up images of raves and dancing and brain altering substances, yech... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats good i also like it....especially when i listen to it while sitting on my ass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont dance to any music |
