I bet that a good amount of people on this board came here because of aphex twin... i know that the whole idm genre opened up because i heard afx.... i discovered so much good new music but the crazy thing is after all the countless new artist's i've heard... aphex twin still is the best and has the best albumns... i mean rdj, ctd and drukqs are the best electronic albumn's ever.... the only other artist's on the same caliber are autechre... who are perhaps equally as great but not quite.... so the point was that after all this time aphex twin is still number 1 |

I had this same feeling yesterday and you didnt mention: I care because you do, saw 1 and 2, abb3... and so many others aphex is really the king well he will have to demonstrate in the idm championship, he is in 1/4 finals already |

Dear richard, why must you be soo good? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
E65 are groundbreaking in the field of IDM! You all know it you're just in denial... Yes, Aphex Twin is why I'm here so it's his fault. www.eiffel65.com |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes he has so much good music but i mean on the merit of three i mentioned alone he is still on top.... it's just lately i've been thinking that druqks is one of the greatest albumns of all time |

|
|
Can I have a link to the full version of that pic please? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I feel that about drukqs sometimes too usually while listening to it... then I listen to icbyd and its the same feeling and the same happens with saw2 and on and on |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bugger off, Autechre and BOC are way betta...imo ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah sure... ill look it up for ya... ... can be found here: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just realized it's the cover of your CD so i have it now. It's cool, getting the trax too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:) thanks! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was directed here from autechre.nu, back in the day.. anyway ill be voting autechre first and aphex last in woofer/nacmats charts :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Aphex is great no doubt, it's just for me at least he doesn't have that otherworldy sound that Autechre have, Autechre are from some distant robotic galaxy beyond the milky way...god bless them and their robotic clankiness |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Have you checked out some guy called Squarepusher? He's quite good too! All the different styles of drum n bass apparently |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yup me too. i fell for a phobiazero advertisement on the late warprecords.com forum. never looked back. ae still are the goodest :| |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but hes 2nd place im afraid :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah i agree with that. I mean there is just so much variety, he covers a lot in his vast collection! Very versitile indeed! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i mean when draft 730 suck in.. shit theyve done it again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Squarepusher is noway near ae, boc and afx...no way near!! >:o |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not afx granted but ae and boc any day for innovation, talent, range etc etc etc |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well after last years championships (woofers championship and nacmats league) in both, squarepusher finished as second so if you feel that AE and BOC are better VOTE for them in this championship remember that the group A was ended yesterday and group B will end tonight so hurry up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boc aren't the same as the others in that although their production techniques have changed to become a little crisper or whatever, their style isn't expected to change. evolution is a necessity with afx sp and ae. afx first, the sp, the ae ae can't be the best. they have slowly got more and more lunny to the point where confield and gg left them with two options 1) either become merzbow or 2) do something innovative and new with their sounds draft7.30 is an attempt at no. 2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the = then prof red neve r do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
merzbow never listened to this is it good? is it idm? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
merzbow = irritating noise. some claim he is this extreme artist who is doing these subtle rhythms and stuff under all the earbleeding static... i think its shite. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ae own you and your little poodles too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ae are great - there's no doubting. this new album was a chance to show that they are up there with the best but no no, they banged out an extremely good, yet predictable bit of work - a step back you might say where next for ae? no more releases perhaps? it's a possibility |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... for me it just boils down to ae and afx... i like some of the "others" alot, but if i was on a desert island.... you know the story. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ae over sp??????? just look at Sps arsenal of tracks - he'll take you through every emotion on that desert island of yours AE will just remind of that sweatshop you worked in from the ages of 6 til 18 and the steel factory you were forced to sleep in |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
respect |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who gives a shizen if it's predicatable if it's 'extremely good' as you say it is (i'm gonna wait for the cd on april 7th). ae rule the idm world with a rod of iron, gwahaha >:D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's extremely good in terms of the average idm record you here but as far as being the kings of idm no way siree. if it was say by Jega or someone i would say, damn, that's a good album, respect! but it's not, it's by autechre who've created some amazing stuff - but to put it along side Go Plastic or Drukqs NO WAY compadre!!! of course your opinion is your opinion blah blah blah |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean? (my english...) :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what you mean what do i mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh man i just heard whats going on in surripere! 4 mins in or so the scratching sound is actually real guitar like, and theres a harmony :) very awesome |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its all good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
y e e e es |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ooo good, I am glad you think so. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it's unfair to compare draft with previous (admittedly more innovative) albums. draft is by far the most interesting idm album to be released since confield & go plastic (not counting the excellent releases by o'rourke, ehlers and fenn'o berg), though, and yes, that prolly says more about other artists than about ae. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't try and convince me otherwise, autechre got me into the genre and I listen to them more than any other artist because I think theyre so much better than anyone else :D Go Plastic and Druqks are both nice albums though (well the first half of GP anyways) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont get draft 730 being predicatable.. it does sound a lot confield, but theres more flexibility in there, all sorts of amazing grooves which have taken the past month or 2 to sink in |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
autechre are about ten times more mature musically than most idm artists. they are refined, deep, and have a certain sophistication i find charming. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed......but still not the best |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
word! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
