(mostly)... most of the bands i discover, i discover them because of connections with other artists... like NIN kinda introduced me to aphex twin, coil, einstürzende neubauten, 12 rounds, marilyn manson, and aphex twin then introduced me to squarepusher, plaid, autechre, etc... or sometimes when i hear a band name on forums which sounds good to me... and sometimes when i see a beautiful cover art for a cd, i try to remember the name and check out the artist :) i never listen to radio... |

Generally I read about them, or other people recommend them. I then DL Mp3s and if I like them I buy the Cd/vinyl. |

same as CeriJC.... and ..... ...i have these associates called "freinds" who have all sorts of wacky tastes and something new always grabs my attention. For eg.. in work, a guy who´s in Mr. Bungle, Faith no more and lesser metal crap, brought in a "Secret Cheifs 3" CD.... new to me.. V Snares meets Tavlingh Singh meets FaithnoMore!!! quality |

buying records usually involves pre-knowledge or something about the artist/record comany/producer catches my attention |

why buying when kazza is still alive? fisrt you can hear it on kazaa::::then buy it if you feel like doing this social thing called "shopping"! hmm...uahahaha |

why buying when kazza is still alive? if no-one would buy.. artists wouldn't release stuff anymore .. by buying their stuff you show respect for the things they do i buy all my music original (xcept AB5 and MFM, they're on CD-r) |

you are doped by society. i am telling just one more thing: free. fuck money. it's 2003.new way of thinkin'. old shit respect. if they stop releasing their shit, we'll come up with something new. for free. i give you the final word. |

I just go to www.rephlex.com |

It hits me up side my head... |

Usually through online reviews, downloading mp3s from Epitonic, or through browsing in my record store of choice (they put these little descriptive stickers on everything). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep, even if I had a final scratch I'd still buy my fav. stuff on original vinyl. MP3 quality is noticably less... |

The internet, and ONLY the internet. This board has enlightened me quite a bit, matter of fact. And I may get heat for this, but I've got into quite a few good rock bands through Rollingstone and similar magazines. I used to buy a lot of music rags. |

He is correct in a way. If we survive we will one day evolve past money. I forgot who said money suggests poverty. But not any time soon. |

First of all, there's this mb. from time to time I check (on slsk) some of the names that are dropped here . Second, there's the radio. There's a program on studio Brussels with pretty good new electronic music. I tape it, look up their playlist, and search for the songs on slsk. There's also Radio Centraal, a local radio from Antwerp, but they rarely announce what they are playing... :-/ Then there's the guy from the cdstore, who became some sort of friend, and he knows what I like. If there's a new release he thinks I might like, he tells me, and then I listen to it in the shop. I also go to secondhandstores,and buy some cheap cd's from artists I heard of ,but never really checked out. sometimes I'm lucky.. =o) and there's also the summer festivals, who are a great opporunity to check out artists you already heard of, or to just discover new groups. ...and what I really like, I buy. |

going to the websites of lablels i like listenign to the stuff on their sites - reading about them, also going to places like juno.co.uk and smallfish.co.uk and spending time listening to and buying what they've got to offer on their sites .. magazines and journalists in mags i trust a regod as well - i sometimes go by mag recommendations i never go by cover art - if i did i'd listen to lemon jelly and kylie ! |
||||||||
|

||||||||
|

If I'm stuck for where to turn next, I always check out other releases on the same record label as something I like.... has to be good independent labels... like Warp, Ninja Tune, Mo-Wax, Rephlex etc etc I sometimes buy compilations from small labels to hear some up coming artists (this is a bit hit n miss, but I occasionally come across a gem :) Most recent discovery: StormCrow (well I'd never heard of them -and no-one else has AFAIK)... pretty good, dubby, electronic, ambient, wierd - cool and you can tell its quite a new artist (I hope it is anyway LOL) |

Well i don't know about that... It would be nice i agree, but i'm not sure how realistic it is. The concept of money has been with us for so long... it seems almost a part of human nature. I bet if we didn't teach our children what money is, they would invent it themselves soon enough. But anyway, I presumed nexialism was only talking about music :-) |

there's actually no such things as money... each 'note' simply says "I promise to pay the bearer the sum of xxx"..... we just pass round I.O.U's all the time... :) it's been awhile since we all had stashes of gold and silver etc :) |
