Ok, I've been listening to Drukqs a lot the last few days, and my brain is screaming with joy when I listen... so many sounds... and, contrary to popular belief, I do think you can dance to a lot of these songs... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agree |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i dont understand why not too many aphex fans like drukqs. its so good. its so mature. it definatly has a different sound, but its still aphexs sound. its like.. more acoustic sounding. i love it too -Zeus |

I agree... it's a great album... the drill'n bass ones are CRAZY!!! And the piano pieces are very nice... it's a nice contrast in style... it's fun to drive around with the windows down and this blasting... I was stopped at a light yesterday, and I was at the loud, make your ears bleed part at the end of Omgyjya-Switch... I just sat there with the window down, and the music blasting, and smiled!! :) |

CockVer10 amittedly makes me want to get up and do some insane dance, that is one of the most AMAZING tracks ever made! Ass shakin', brain bakin' madness. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
way to go, i totally agree i just recently heard some sounds on ziggomatic that i hadn't heard before, awesome! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yup, Cock/Ver 10 is my favorite... it's just freaking awesome!!! Ziggomatic is excellent to!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Now I have to go get my Drukqs cd and play it on my computer! :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Funkmaster: I was driving to that same song you were!! I love that loud part at the end its so sweet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes The_Funkmaster,that track is so excellent plus put on a little Meltphace6+Mount st michaels and you got the perfect insane music to dance or to do whatever you want... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My problem with Drukqs is that I can't just pop the album in and enjoy it. But I do enjoy listening to my resequenced "Drukqs mini-album" a lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Another thing is that this album is different because they contain more organic sounds(like the piano pieces,wich they r all treated differently acoustically)combined with his unique drill-n-bass music and you definitely got a masterpiece that DRUKQS is.....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you get so many styles... and it's mostly all quality... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thus proving that RDJ is king of the beats.}:> |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes yes, the beats are fantastic!!! A question though, is Go Plastic by Squarepusher, or any Squarepusher for that matter, a lot like Drukqs? I haven't heard hardly anything by Squarepusher, so I don't know... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes The_Funkmaster,all groups/artists play different within the IDM/electronica genre....And yes also,it's excellent quality and very creative,even the ambient parts are way creative....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wouldnt say that they are similiar... i think squarepusher has a more tightness in his sound. Its very dense. Does that make sense to anyone? Like, its very sticcato. So good. I love go plastic. -Zeus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
See Funkmaster,they are like brothers,but even with that in mind,they play very different,you must start listening to TomJ stuff but from past to present....Don't even think on starting with GoPlastic.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Squarepusher is in his own little world of beats FAR beyond that of Drukqs...especially something like go plastic or music is rotted one note. Squarepusher is faster and more complex. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I started with Go Plastic...ain't nothing wrong with that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
squarepusher doesn't really sound like aphex, but it's definalely the same style of music. hope that helps;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry Amonbrune but GoPlastic it's not a good start-up for SP....I will rather recomend starting with Feed me weird things,then move to Music is rotted one note.....Do you get my logic??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, cause you cant start on such madness... you gotta build up to it. I remember when i first heard squarepusher, i didnt like it... but i was listening to the recent stuff. i had to go back and listen to the old stuff, and i liked it, so after awhile i got another one, and so on, and now i love it all Untitled is THE best. amazing -Zeus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes I do. I don't mind starting with GP because I started Autechre with Confield. I wouldn't recommend doing EITHER...just I did and wasn't affected. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Drukqs is unique, and amazing. certainly one of my favourites... and flawless imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well,then it's fine with me,still it's not recomended because from then until now you will see the difference in style and from the freejazz era combined with electronics and real bass playing to just computers/sampler/real-time control music TomJ is doing nowdays.....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thats amazing he did actual bass playing. The drums from the freejazz era sound real too. Did he play the drums as well or have someone play them? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Some of the drumming was done by someone else in the studio and others just sampled from old jazz records and processed thru a sampler at higher speed sometimes and the,he will just paly whatever in his bass following the pre-programed drums,ain't that cool...Is TomJ a genious too or what??? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Amon Tobin isn't as complex or fast as TomJ or RDJ, but he's got the best beats anyway. He does the Jazz Fusion thing MUCH better, that's why Tom J stopped the jazz thing, he KNEW he could never match up to the amazing Amon Tobin. :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't have that same opinion but it's ok,I don't think TomJ stopped because of AmonTobin(and he's really good,don't get me wrong Ophecks),he just did because he just want to experiment more with electronics...You know that the jazz fusion that AmonTobin does is different than TomJ'....TomJ is more like free-style jazz fusion and AmonT is more like straight/contemporary jazz fusion,still,it's not the same....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, that's true, I see what you're saying... Still, Amon Tobin could kick Squarepusher's ass in a streetfight. Tom is a little drunk dude, I bet he's a pansy. And that's all that's important, streetfights! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ophecks: Id probably like Amon Tobin better if he wasn't with Ninja Tune or didn't have that Ninja Tune "sound". I personally can't stand that stuff...shame cause I want to like Amon Tobin. Just that whole NT thing gets in the way... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why? Cause I guess Ninja Tune stuff is too muffled for me...Its like I got pillows in my room and in my head and they had pillows in front of the mics in the studios... I can't hear anything. Its awful for me... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I highly respect your opinion Ophecks,but still think that TomJ will kick major ass in everything he has done musically so far....=) Just listen to his latest Untitled single,is such a masterpiece...... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Amon, Amon doesn't sound muffled! Listen to Amon more, Amon! What a weird sentence... Anyway, he sounds as clear as chrystal to me, I LOVE his production. I haven't heard much more Ninja Tune, but that guy is the best. I win you lose! Vamp- agreed, that Untitled track is awesome, can't wait for a new album with more than ONE track. Amon is still better. :-p Tobin, not Brune. Brune sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanx Ophecks but for me TomJ is way better than AmonT...And thanx for agreeing with me in reference to the Untitled single....Cheeers man,you're good,a nice friend and have a good taste.......SP |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a great album. I like the different styles a lot! It's like hearing 30 stories, all totally different from each other. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs is a lot more melodic than go plastic, IMO. There, said it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nexus6,couldn't agree with you more...It's like listening to different stories and in every track there is a different feeling to it,just have to listen to it paying attention to everything and concentrating on the music........=) |
