Yeah my favorite is Peer Gynt. It is good if you like classical music. It means you are open to almost every type of music. |

yes, Philip Glass. he is great. polynomial-c is very Philip Glass. Steve Reich. I find windowlicker's 'nannou' very much á la Steve Reich, especially his 'Music for Mallet Instruments' and Part III of drumming. but aphex's nannou is melancholic, whereas steve reich's pieces are very minimal. kind of fusing steve reich's rythmic patterns with philip glass' melancholy, but in the end... nannou is completely afx. |

My brother is a concert pianist and his girlfriend is a professional Cellist so I am planning on having them orchestrate polynomial C with me, all I need is a drummer. Listen to polynomial C you will see that those are really the only three instruments you need. My brother could easily play the entire polynomial C loop with one hand. I wonder if I can get that same effect on a real piano...lets hope so. If anyone can play fast drums & snare's in the NYC area let me know! xanatos@nyc.rr.com |

William Orbit - Pieces In A Morden Style. This is totally ambient/classical. It was classic, classical music taken and made into electronic style ambient. Very interesting and quite imaginitive in my opinion. Worth Checking out. |

a question... just saw the title of a track of saw1(1985-92)- 'we are the music makers'. there's a piece by edward elgar which is called the music makers and actually starts with an orchestral prelude followed by the chorus, singing... 'we are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams' - would be weird, considering richard d. james comments about his dreaming music while sleeping - especially the ambient stuff. does anyone know about a possible connection there? i mean elgar's and james music are far removed... except the themes in their music. dreams (afx' ambient works) and kids (afx' 'come to daddy', elgar's 'dream children', 'wand of youth'). |

oh-oh, just saw that i made quite a few errors in that last post, but anyway. maybe the title 'we are the music makers' is just very ironic... but i think the title is no coincidence. and here is some of the text of the elgar piece: we are the music makers we are the dreamers of dreams wandering by lone sea-breakers (now look at the picture on the left! no coincidence) and sitting by desolate streams... |

anything by bach, especially the fugues. elgar's serenade for strings is pretty cool too. |

In 'We are the Music Makers' you realize that is not RDJ talking: That is Gene Wilder playing Willy Wonka in Willy Wonka in the Chocolate Factory. The scene is where they are all licking the wallpaper and Charlie and Grandpa Joe are saying "The rasberries really taste like rasberries" "And the strawberries take like strawberries" then WW says: "And the snozberries taste like snozberries" Then Veruca salt goes "Snozberries?! Who ever heard of a Snozberry?" Then Willy Wonka gets right into her face and says "We are the Music Makers, and We are the Dreamers of the Dreams." Methinks RDJ was just a fan of WW, as we all are, and also liked the implications that line has to the movie and his music... |

thank you for the information about 'we are the music makers', xanatos. i've not listened to this piece yet, but i will soon check out afx's saw1. and to orchestrate of polynomial-c is a great idea by the way. |

just checked the tracklist of william orbit's 'pieces'... there's also satie's 'ogive' - that's a beautiful piece, and part of a series (composed in 1886, and completely different to any music composed in that time). If you like that get reinbert de leeuw's recording of the erik satie gnossiennes, ogives, overture á danser sarabandes and gymnopedies. and remember - some pieces of 'drukqs' are supposed to be very erik satie. erik satie's pieces have equally strange titles as aphex twin's ('piéces froides/ cold pieces', 'pieces in the shape of a pear', 'la gentille toute petite fille/ pretty little girl' from 'nouvelles piéces enfantines/ new children's pieces', 'unappetising chorale'). satie was just as eccentric as richard d. james. |
