Well, that'll be 1994 for me...I've been listening to loads of stuff recently that came out in this most hallowed of years...amazing really, almost all the CDs I rescued from me old man's loft in Wales were from 1994, as well as a disproportionate number of my top 120 that I originally brought over here...what was it about that year? :-) Many top-notch albums have a ten-year anniversary just round the corner then...of course some notable ones celebrate theirs this year too...SAW 85-92 and the Brown Album spring immediately to mind... :-) |
||||||||

damn...so that makes next year the 10 year anniversary of Vintage IDM... :) You are just so funny, Merg! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well I try... :-) Nah, seriously, it's just weird how much fantastic stuff came out that year...must have been people who got inspired by Orb, Aphex, Orbital et al in 91 or 92 having their stuff released, as well as releases by them too of course :-) |

Definetly '94 for me too - The sound completely changed from being kind of quirky and raw to really well produced and sophisticated. ISDN Tri Repetae I Care cos u Do SAWII Advance |

||||||||
|

ICBYD was 95, non? Anyway, hate to be picky and all that... :-) Oh there's tons...just look through your collection when you get time :-) |
||||||||

Bluff Limbo, Music To Films, Vulvaland etc. etc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

ICBYD was '94 and RJ LP was '95.... I think! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I burned ICBYD for a mate yesterday (don't tell anyone!) and I'm 99% it said 95, RDJ was 96 and SAWII 94...more than one in the same year never happens! |
||||||||

|
|
but tri rep was 95 :P |

1994 is a pretty good year. All began to happen for me in 1994. Didn't 'Spanners' come out in '94 or was that '95? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think, maybe, 2001. Aphex Twin - Drukqs Squarepusher - Go Plastic Plaid - Double Figure Bogdan Raczinski - My love I love Autechre - Confield |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well certainly '94 was really very much a breakthrough year for 'IDM'. I do hate that term. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Spanners was 1994 yeah... Now you mention it, I don't like it either, but I thought people here used it...doh! Would you prefer electronica? |
||||||||
|

the time is now! loook to the future and forget about the past! all we can do is learn from our mistakes and keep our minds open to beauty |

I agree with Nexus 6, 2001 was indeed a great year for music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agreed also, I also like REM's "Reveal" from that year too (there I said it) :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Looks like '95 was my electronica (I prefer that to IDM) year then! I think as soon as a scene gets "properly" labelled by the press/media, it starts to age - Electronica is good cos it's so open, like "Jazz" - But you start to catagorise it too much, like "Be-bop" or "Trip hop" and it gets stuck in a decade and ages... |

and Radiohead's Amnesiac came out that year :) |
||||||||
|
|

||||||||

Didn't Im Utero come out in '94 too? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
though its not idm, slowdive's 'souvlaki' came out in 94, and its one of my favorite albums. portishead's 'dummy' also came out that year as well as squarepusher's first ever release, 'the stereotype ep'. autechre's 'amber' came out in 94, not tri repetae. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah I just realised most of my albums came out in '95 actually. doh! |
||||||||

1988 was when it really started to happen |

I've got quite a few mix tapes from '88-'92 era - Acid house, Trance & Hardcore stuff - And the thing that gets me the most is that the music still sounds absolutely awesome, even by today's standards. I've been going through really old rave & techno tapes lately, the music is incredible, it's all so perfectly balanced between what works in a club/warehouse and what you want to listen to at home... I'm mainly talking about the very early 90's stuff, before "rave" started to get commercialised. I just wonder where are all those producers who were writing the classic hardcore, trance, acid, etc.. back then - Wonder how many of them are still releasing music today and who they are...? |

i was convinced all the belgian new-beat from the late 80s was in fact the work of 1 person |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, I'd be so interested to know! There were so many great rave/hardcore/acid tunes back then - All made by completely faceless producers, most people didn't even know... FSOL have been around a while - They were behind a great many classic hardcore track from the early 90's under loads of guises. And all those Hummanoid acid tracks in the 80's! |

Frank de Wulf did loads of them... he used to wear slip on shoes and he just looked like someones dad. |
||||||||
|

|
|
all the artists names (if indeed there was more than one) were completely hilarious! eg - white rabbit by airplane crashes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So we all agree it was 94 then yeah? :-D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Damn, some of the SAW 1 tracks will be 20 years old this year! |
