well she is sean booth's (æ) wife :) some of her tracks are nice, haven't heard much though (i remember sometimes just white noise parts kicked in when i listened to it) i'd say download some :D |

as i have said many times, i was greatly dissapointed on prickle. that is about all i can say about her. cool to see a grrl in the scene but i hope she'd amaze me more :( |

I saw her at a Plaid show in San Francisco... she was all right.. not as bad as I'd thought she'd be |
||||||||

her new album "skimskitta" is much better than her earlier work. |

if the lot of you weren't such sexist stuck-up nerds you might enjoy mira calix |
||||||||

Fine as hell....Mmm Mmm... << but not a huge fan of her work. Its not the worst thing ever, certainly not the best. Who cares, she so fine, she can do whatever she likes=) |
||||||||
|

|
Being sexist has nothing to do with it... I really just don't care for her work, I mean it's alright but nothing special...I agree with IronLung she is fine. |

sexism in this case is subconscious. most of us here are smart enough not to say or even think "oh she's a girl, that's why it sucks so much." the sexism i'm talking about is the whole male-centered attitude. very few of the people here count a female among their favorite artists (bjork being the most popular choice for those who do), which is a real shame. i know james brown said it's a man's, man's world, but it shouldn't be that hard to take a female idm artist seriously. being married to one of the members of autechre doesn't help her out, but a lot of it is just people slagging her off cos she's female in a male world (idm), whether they realize they're doing it or not. this isn't unique to idm, which is why i believe what i believe (precedent). |

okay I agree with you to an extent, but I really don't think that applies to everyone. One of my favorite artist is Tori Amos...I have no problem admitting that one of my favorite artist is a woman. However, I see your point. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... I think Bjork is freaking great... I own all her albums, yet I really don't care for Mira Calix |
||||||||
|

titsworth, you also have to flip that around. Lots of 'males' out there would instead, say "wholly shit this bitch is awesome," "shes hot.." etc and the what not, just because she has some good tunes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i understand what you mean... people would be especially impressed with her music cos a female did it, which is supposed to be an accomplishment in itself. however i disagree with you cos i think most of the time the reaction to mira's music (not looks) is overly negative, not overly positive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm... well regardless of her sex, I think the sounds she creates are very interesting, but sometimes the structures of her pieces don't agree with me. I haven't heard any of her recent material, but I am interested. people would be especially impressed with her music cos a female did it Yeah, I think that's shit. |
||||||||

what does she look like? ive only seen low res pics that dont really do anything for me, but then again....her music is all that matters, |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
you can see some pictures of her on warp's website, under warpartist in the gallery section |

i like the majority of her music i've heard, but i'm not totally getting into it. i hope she develops her style more cause it always hints at something just totally mind blowing waiting to come through... to me at least. then again, i may just have to listen more, which i plan on doing. also i've not heard the latest. |
||||||||

I know exactly what you are talking about jupitah...her music is like on the verge on becoming something incredible, but it never gets there...very anticlimatic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't really like prickle too much either.. I own it on vinyl, but i rarely listen too it. It's got some cool tecktures too it though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Prickle is alright, my favorite of what I own by her...I also have her peel sessions and oneonone |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can find it on elusive's ftp too. twice actually, if he hasn't cleaned it up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've only heard Prickle and Peel Sessions. Mediocre IMO |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
havent heard much of her stuff, im not a great fan, but she is a really good dj. she managed to keep us dancing till 6am to quality jungle at a nesh party! she was great at the pool party aswell! respect |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i wasn't impressed with "prickle" or "one on one"... i WANT to like her stuff... i just think it's kinda "eh" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I had Prickle and Peel Session in my top 100 for a while, but along with the album, they don't get listened to much these days. I have too much stuff that's more interesting. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like her. One on One and skimskitta are good if you are looking to add variance to your collection. I find it good to just chill and be lazy to. I can also vouch that she's a cutie ;p |
||||||||

the nw ones got excellent reviews - she was doig and djing music for years before they were married i'm sure - i saw her dj in megatripolis in 1993 |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i've listened to her new album a little, it sounds really good but somewhat ... non-action . not very hmm exciting but it's got some quality |
