If everyone would be listening to aphex. Kids at school with afx logos printed on their shirts. Ads,etc.
It would be better than Rnb but...

NO NO NO! OH PLEASE GOD NO! IT WOULD SUCK MAJOR COCKS IN HELL! Because I'd probably feel less unique. I love being different from the rest. I always try to be as much me as I can and if all of a sudden everyone starts listening to aphex the fun'll be over for me. It wouldn't be special anymore.
He would be just another commercial dick sucker!

i don't know... it would be strange. but it wouldn't prevent me from liking afx at all — an artist's popularity has nothing to do with its talent! :)

there are probably a lot of posers now that say they love AFX.
I agree with uzim, an artist's popularity etc. etc.

Nexus 6 > yeah, far too often... :/ but some very well-known artists still do good music (björk for example).

You don't see everyone in school walking around with bjork logos printed on their shirts. At least not in my school. I haven't seen one single kid wearing a bjork shirt or something...

To tell the truth, I like knowing that I'm into music that nobody else around me has any clue about... if everyone walked around with ''AE'' on their shirts, that wouldn't make me happy... I'd still be 100% into their music, I don't care about popularity in THAT way... it won't turn me off the music or anything. But I have to admit, listening to Parhelic Triangle and having everyone else cringe and wonder what the fuck it is is kinda cool. ]:-)

If that happened you would all have to listen to someone else.
So that you can feel superior because you like a "higher" form of music.
Get over it!!!

i think it's shitty for people to want their favorite artists to never gain popularity. if you care about other people at all you'll want them to gain a better appreciation for good music and exposure to people like RDJ would do that.

Naw man it's not the popularity per se that people fear; it's the almost inevitable shittening (shittifying? shitefaction?) of an artist's output resulting from the complacency that tends to be engendered by fame.
Ah, but is this drop in quality an actuality or merely perceived? Don't ask me, man.

In the end, it's the music, not the musician or his instruments, that says something about those who listen...
