kraftwerk started this whole thing in the mid 70´s... since then lots of things have happened... but which do you think were the best years and why? maybe the early ninetees? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i confess i don't know kraftwerk all that well, but a lot of the early nineties stuff owes a lot to kraftwerk, ie autechre, afx now with confield and gantz graf, ae are finally shedding their skin and coming with something entirely new, imho. hopefully others will follow. so i guess i like the 21st century bestest ;) |

well its clear that 2001 was a great year for electonica (drukqs, double figure, confield, go plastic...) but only time can tell that |
||||||||
|
|

1992 is a special year, coz Warp launched their Artificial Inteligence series. The three following years was very rich when it comes to electronica: The whole scene had this positive, progressive vibe about it... God, I'm old! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
every year man, especally this year and next... and the one after that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
92 - 94 electronica developed a whole lot around this time |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah! It was before the major record companies got interested... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'98 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I remeber Cascade by FSOL as a particularly mindblowing historical electronica-moment. That was in '93. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the release of The Orb - Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld was a big turning point as far as classic electronic albums go, 92 i think |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have to correct you there, my friend, it was actually '91! Blue Room was 92.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice one, 92 allways sticks in my head, when i saw them at Glastonbury. |
||||||||
|
|

' 92 was a very important year for British techno. At that time it received more attention from the underground scene. "The philosophy of sound and machine"(ART/Rephlex) was the very first British techno compilation. It collect early tracks from Aphex Twin, Black Dog(Plaid), B12, Kirk Degiorgio... Also the Artificial intelligence serie was set up by Warp at that time. |

I kinda like 2001, all my favorite albums were released. Drukqs, Confield, Go Plastic, Geogaddi, Clarence Park, I'm sure I'm forgetting some more... pretty damned great year. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course I may be biased because I didn't know shit about this stuff UNTIL 2001! |
||||||||
|

Good music is from all time :=) |

1995 - 1998 Think about it from the big three I think it was the best of their work: ICBYD and Richard D. James Album Chiastic Slide and LP5 Feed Me Weird Things and Hard Normal Daddy Other landmark albums from the same period: - More Songs About Food and Revolutionary Art (Carl Craig) - Substrata (Biosphere) - Soup (Bola) - Music Has The Right To Children (BoC) And I'm sure there are many more I've forgotten to mention. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bola: Soup? a couple of nice tracks, most tracks are boring. I can give al list of more than 100 releases from the period 90-95 which are ways better than this one |

1974 ......for then the Keyfumbler was born. Sonn after that he started hearing the sounds he heard in the womb and they were good. A few years rolled by where his brain started to become cluttered with unnessary noise spat out in between the static of radio waves and from the television which bombarded him which much silliness. Then he heard Squarepusher and AFX and returned to the womb. Now his own latent sounds are trickling through and maybe others will return through him........ .......*jesus h tap-dancing christ!* |

I felt that last year was about as good as it was ever going to get. . . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
2 disc releases came from 3 great different artists last year: Aphex Twin, Orbital, and BT. Not to mention my favourite dj mix ever was also released last year: Global Undeground 18, John Digweed in Los Angeles!!! Plus Crystal Method released their latest, Tweekend, which admittedly wasn't as good as their first Vegas but was still good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well 1992 because SAW85-92 was release then (wasn't it?) and this in my opinion is an amazing release even now 10 years later... also I agree that 95 to 98 were amazing years... ICBYD, Tri Repetae, The RDJ Album, Chiastic Slide, and the best of them all MHTRTC!!! :) |

||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
for me: the period of time between 1990 and 1995 |
