i dont think so, the whole genre is going downhill, (almost) everyone is stuck in ideas from a few years ago, that holds for sp, ae, boc and aphex.
there are a few nice releases every couple of months nothing is really going on.
i do not demand being cutting edge all the time but i see the whole genre stagnating.
even commercial acts show more evolution then most electronica artists do.

mm kraftwerk were the 'gods' or fathers i think.. i mean i know there were other 'electronica' bands such as tangerine dream but they invented the drum machine didnt they?
oh! i saw some random band on MTV the other day. the name was something like
'T.schilandihive' (hey thats a cool name) or something i cant remember it sounded German. More squarepusher then Aphex, the video was basically some guy banging on a drum set but the fact that it was on MTV obvioulsy means something.

I consider Mouse on Mars better over most on Warp, but they've been around for a very long time.
I feel Aphex will do something very soon. I mean when windowlicker came out, that blew me away completely. i couldnt listen to normal hip hop, it was to bland in comparison.

As soon as AFX puts out another dish of delights, he's back on the throne. Also..
I have re-discovered the genius of Aleksis Perälä. Astrobotnia is so good.

Why does there need to be a 'new' aphex? Do you all realize that since this modern electronic music movement started in 90-91, there has been thousands of good releases that you've probably not heard? Rather than looking for something new, go and find something good and old. You'd be surprised by what you find.

what a viscious plug...tasty...
IDM is a very "fuled" genre...evolving as quickly as MS's sheduled obslentance modle...
give me more...diffrent...exotic...
it's very much like a addiction, or porn, or any other addiction, you get numbed, and need something even more shocking to stimulate.

Who says Richard is the best producer? What about Wolfgang Voigt?
Also, ?T.schilandihive?, I believe you mean T.Raumschmiere, or Marco Haas who has had notable releases on Kompakt, Shitkatapult, Hefty, and novamute.

idm changes so much that it doesn't, if you catch my meaning. it may constantly push forward but really it's all the same shit. same ideas slightly altered. i too prefer more exotic music that isn't obsessed with "change" (and thus truly changes more and is a more rewarding experience for its diversity and depth).

I think the past few years has been plagued with this obsession (I call it Snares-itis) to make things sound unlistenable as possible; AE seems to have caught this disease the worst of all.
Tits is right - it's all variations on different themes, but what music isn't?
I'd rather have 10 artists that try to take an existing idea to heights unknown than 100 artists doing "groundbreaking" stuff that does not resemble music anymore.
Some examples Nacmat: Look up Psyche/BFC, CiM, Christian Vogel, Cannibal Ox... I can't think of any more off the top of my head, but it's out there. And yes, some of these artists have recent releases too, so it's not all older material.
