You know what I don't think that I am wrong and I really
don't find it necessary for you to address me like that. I
also find that many of the people on here are cynical piss
ants with a really bad attitude, and many of those same
people freely admit to smoking pot and/or doing other
drugs.

Maybe this genre and other related genres would get more
respect as real art and not written off as drug schloc if so
many of the artists and fans alike layed off the drugs and
then proceeded to take the stick out of their arse.

So no I don't believe I am wrong at all and why don't you
proceed treating your neighbor as you would want to be
treated. Do you talk to me like that just because we are on
the internet miles apart, or do you generally address
someone you don't know like that to their face?

just saw that you were joking, so if that is the case no
offense taken and you can disregard my comments

Actually I agree with everything you said, I was being
sarcastic but not doing a very good job, no need to get all
fucking sanctimonious.

i dont see what the problem with this thread is

its a perfectly legit question...

many musicians smoke, and many listeners do too...

and alot of musicians are very opinionated on smoking or
not, when writting. Id be interested to know weather or not
AE smoke.

Personally, I smoke... but I dont write tracks while high.
Like someone said before... you sit there tweaking the same
loop for 3 hours... only slightly... and it sounds like crap
when sober.

Personally, I like to have complete control over my music,
and know that it was 100% thought out... and not something I
came up with while in a daze.

But thats just me.

My friend writes while high, and he writes wihile sober too.
He just likes both for different reasons.

So yeah... to each their own.

And I still dont understand why this thread is bad?

The thread is stupid because how does anyone here know
whether Sean and Rob smoke weed or not? And what does it
matter if they do or not? And given that noone could
possibly answer the original question what is the point in
asking whether their music suffers as a result?

perhaps it was mentioned in an interview, and someone had a
link?

its a legit question

it doesnt matter if they do or not... its just ineresting to
see how other people work

but yes, no one could answer if the music suffered.

i think that people don't like to associate AE with drugs.
IE, you're into a certian fetish, and find out all of the
fans fit a certian "mold," and you're disgusted for likeing
it, and disgusted towards yourself.

i think it's pretty hippocritical...don't you have to be a
bit "uncanny" to even dig IDM in the first place?

why are uncanny people putting down other forms of
"extraordinary?"

doesn't matter.

smoke weed, don't smoke weed, just respect yourselves, and
each other.

I'm not attacking drugs, I love drugs and I love drug users.
I love you. In my opinion (should I ALWAYS have to add that
after a post, isn't it just understood?), drugs almost never
have a positive effect on music. For all the talk of how
''druggy'' The Beatles eventually got, absolutely NONE of
their songs are drug influenced or DONE under the influence,
except as in jokes. Paul said they recorded some TRUE drugs
songs, and then wiped the tape the next day when they
realized how awful they were. They weren't tripping when
they wrote Lucy in the Sky, and Autechre weren't tripping
when they made Confield. If they did, the album would suffer
for it. That's how I feel. End of story. Of course I could
be wrong, but I'd be very surprised. This is total
speculation, I'd be more than happy to be proved wrong if
Booth and Brown said otherwise. All I can do is hyphothesize
based on what I know.

I'm not talking about LISTENING to music. If you see God
when you're tripping listening to SAW2, more power to you.
I'm sure you do, and that's fantastic. But most GREAT music
that's attributed to ''drugs'' is made by sober minds.

And tough shit if you don't like the way we do things here.
