He rarely mentions records he like\'s by other artists....in one of the interviews he says that his favourite music is his own.....which is great....it\'s what you strive for when you make music, film, books whatever.....anyone know what albums he loves by other people????? |

I'm guessing that he likes most of the artists on Rephlex, beacuse why would he sign artists he doesn't like? |

In interviews he's said he likes squarepusher, cylob and eric satie, I havn't heard the latter. I sifted through interviews mostly to find out the answer to the ? you asked, (if his music affected me so greatly, surely I'd like what he likes. And I certainly did.) |

yes, people like erik satie... and philip glass. w etc - you got to listen to satie. but of course it's not electronic, satie is not around anymore since 1925. there are similarities to aphex. satie had many followers who where influenced by him, his pieces had strange and funny names, his music was strange but also beautiful, he composed 'ambient music' (musique d'ameublement), the first in fact... mostly he composed piano music. I can recommend the pieces froides (frozen pieces), the nocturnes, trois morceaux en forme de poire (three pieces in the form of a pear... but they are in fact 7 pieces), the sarabandes, the gnossiennes (and there are a lot more!). you certainly know on of the gymnopedies (but perhaps not by name)... in the groove interview he also said that he purchased 3000 cd's last year and downloaded the songs he likes, selling the cd's again in a second hand record store. he said that one of his last cd's was a lou reed album. |

Thanks for the erik satie suggestions. My favorite piano compositions are "fur elise" (either by mozart or bach I think) and a song from a cd called "frederic chopin 1810-1849" called "prelude op. 28/15 in d flat major raindrop (4:48)" And also quite a few other compositions from that album, the mentioned tune is so depressing but filled with courage sort of, it's one of my favorite compositions anywhere. (he also makes that famous gravyardish song on this album.) |

ceephax acid crew and in talking about listening to unknown artists mp3's on the web he said 'he won't listen to them if in the write ups the artist say iit sounds like aphex, squarepusher or autechre but something more interesting like venetian snares or slub.' this was two years ago so it fits with this thread like a glove. |

he chose all of these in an interview; "· Drexciya The Quest · Erik Satie 'Trois Gymnopédies' · Return of the DJ's · Squarepusher Big Loada · Luke Vibert Big Soup · Batucada The Sound Of The Favelas · Best of Acid 1 · Ween Pod and Pure Guava · Les Baxter The Exotic Moods of Les Baxter · Serge Gainsbourg · Tod Dockstader 'Luna Park' Drexciya are from Detriot, part of Underground Resistance- I really like them. Return of the DJ's is music from California- it's avant-garde hip-hop, taking it to another extreme with a lot of excessive scrathing and cutting up. Batucada are from South America with really, really fast rhythms with screaming and shouting with no songs. Best of Acid 1 is old school from '88 with all of these Chicago producers and acid tunes. I love Ween- I really, really like them and everything they do. I'm well into Les Baxter- a right weirdo. I have this double CD by Gainsbough that I like a lot with 'Lemon Incest' on it. I've got CD's by Nurse With Wounds and Harry Partch with me but I haven't listened" |
