all musicians must have a skeleton in their cupboard somewhere... :) coldcut featuring yazz and the plastic population? they must cringe at the sight of them dressed up to the nines pretenting to do a bit of scratching whilst miming on top of the pops! |

808 state, a couple of the tracks on lfo's 1st album, some of radiohead's early b-sides and pre-record contract demos and live tracks, and a lot more... but i've learned to appreciate this sort of music in context of musical progress and just different eras, like early britpop, the house music era, etc. it's not bad at all, just not my fav or the most advanced.. |
||||||||

its worrse when an arrtist has an amazing 1st album and then it just goes rright down hill yet you keep buying just in case. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats 808 state to a tee but i gave up buying after their 3rd album |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
The costumes and dance routine maybe, but the track is top notch! |

Fatboy Slim (Norman Cook)...even though a lot of you probably hate him now... Housemartins anyone? :) |

thats when he was good! ;) |

NIN - Purest Feeling... though it isn't really bad! ^^ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aw don't say it's bad just cos everyone else does uzim... i like the right track demos almost as much as PHM the album. ...including "purest feeling"! it's one of the few fun nin songs. |

haha corgan's "the marked" fucking horrible ive pulled better out of the arse.. |

a lot of pre-Hi Scores boards of canada >:-} |
||||||||

|
|
thats all fake stuff tho int'it... mr egg demos and so on |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't say it was bad! : ) but i think it can be considered as embarassing nonetheless, compared to the other NIN works... for the ambiance and such.. ^^ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NIN, all NIN is to me is worrkout music |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't even think boc maxima is that great.. but the other stuff that's leaked recently, which are "confirmed" legitimate, aren't impressive at all... uzim yea i see your point, a lot of trent's early stuff is way embarassing.. his voice on "purest feeling" and a lot of the other tracks, the programming on "kinda i want to", and hell let's not forget Option 30! certainly not a graceful start, but at least the first nin album is a classic and everything since has been mostly high quality. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
"NIN - Purest Feeling... though it isn't really bad! ^^" This is pre-PHM then? Never heard of it. I would say Ministrys' "with sympathy." is not great. |

i've got one better for you still: Dr.Dre & The World-Class Wreckin' Cru - not to say that Dr.Dre is good nowdays either, but back then, he actually used to look all prissy and wear makeup onstage: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw i meant "kinda i want to" DEMO, not the finished version a lot of the early PHM demos are very rudimentary, but i find the cheap equipment quite charming really.. some of the demos i prefer to the finished products |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe oh man you got a good one there ever see the vh1 behind the music on dre? it has some more footage and audio from those days. anyway, i think dre's production is still top notch! i can't wait to hear the rakim album, they recorded like 60 songs together. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was trying to find some better ones still, ones with full-on sparkly makeup and all (like the ones on the VH1 show!), but looks like the Dre Police stepped in and mopped up the early-years mess - it would ruin Dre's reputation among hip-hop fans! N.W.A. production is classic, but it's been pretty well downhill since, as far as i'm concerned. but Rakim & Dre? it probably would be good if not for Top-40 beats and shit guest appearances by the likes of Lil' Kim, 50 Cent (or whatever awful artists are bound to end up on the typically gargantuan "feat. so and so" list of guests) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh i dunno if i'd call dre's beats top 40 even if they invariably end up hits. he's gotten increasingly more musical since NWA, though i'm certainly a fan of his early more stripped down sound as well. guest artists on rakim (check June): should be great if dre doesn't fuck it up (not as a producer, but as a label owner... see eve's aftermath debut, last emperor, knoc'turnal, hittman, etc... none of these albums ever came out) |
||||||||

mmm! new Gangstarr! just when i had given up hope of ever hearing from them again! if this doesn't make mainstream hip-hop good again, i don't know what will! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
early beatles |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree with that!! Early fsol isn't up to much either! there is a couple of good tracks on accelerator but most of it is pretty cack. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vsnares seems to still be in his embarrassing stage. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, Classics by Aphex Twin is pretty shit!! I suppose that with Radiohead, Pablo Honey is pretty mediocre... but it doesn't suck, it just isn't that great... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so papua new guinea is rubbish is it? which is why is it constantly referred to as the best dance track ever! probably not by you though it seems :) anywayz, brian dougans did loads of stuff before fsol and thats all excellent stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
papua new guinea was the birth of creative 'break' use, in an electronic style. Everything can be critisized in retrospect if you have the energy to do it....'the laughing gnome' by bowie is funny! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
without papua new guinea there wouldn't be jungle/d'n b/drill and bass whatever as you know it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
where is that break from? im sure i'd heard it before somewhere else too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There's two breaks that were used with synchopated starts, the first that really 'worked' the dancefloor....I'll have a listen again now, I've forgot..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't you think i know that!!! papua new guinea is fucking excellent, i said that there were a couple of good tracks (read my post again,please) Expander is also excellent, the rest is filler. I own humanoid sessions 84-88 top stuff i hasten to add. Fsol sorted it out with lifeforms which is one of my favorite albums ever!!! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I can't find it........ I'm just falling up the stairs..I'll find out tomorrow...I feel a bit dizzy! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what if it works the other way around? pen expers thats all i can think of |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what are you tring to say? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pre darren emerson underworld is pretty embarresing.. just watch the video for 'underneath the radar' ...and then of course there was their freur days.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey classics is great!!! abb1 digeridoo xilem tube... this is top material... its just old school, but not at all bad or embarrasing just my opinion |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tom Jenkinson´s "Sausage Roll" track off ChaosAD´Buzz Caner is a beauty....... its like a retro-pisstake of the kind of thing your talking about... purposefully bad old stuff, taking the piss out of old stuff but bloody good anyway! V-Proc rocks btw |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah. early aphex is kickass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was flicking through my old English book from junior school the other day. Ohmigod! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're crazy man. classics is awesome. i luv the drum n bass in it. i'd say classics is just more hardcore than other albums, excluding polynomial-c. i luv the phloam starts out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is the "papua new guinea" break from meat beat manifesto's "radio babylon" or am i confusing myself |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't mind early Aphex... SAW85-92 is amazing... and surfing on sine waves is real nice... but classics just sucks imo... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
purest feeling is awesome.. don't forget 'maybe just once' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
though its somewhat lame by todays standards.. i wouldnt call classics embarrasing.. some of its pretty badass..especially for its time ..just listen to the other 'hardcore' techno that was being released then (like the prodigy's charly) and of course remember he was still a teenager when he made most of it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i listened to classics a few weeks ago for the first time in 2 or 3 years and it kicked my ass |
