Can you believe my (ex) friend Ben said that Autechre are
better than the man himself, Aphex Twin? I mean, come
on...

Autechre have released about 17 records, yet only about
three are decent. Every Aphex song is wicked, yet Autechre
can't help sounding like they try just a bit too hard...I
dunno.

What's the deal?

Your (ex) friend ben is obviously a homosexual. You should
tell him to "Get a load of this!" if you get my meaning,
which by god, I hope you don't.

I like them about equally. They are both musical geniuses,
and I see how someone could easily prefer one over the
other.


 

Meerkat on 2001-11-25 23:57 [#00055524]



You reckon? Okay, so Autechre aren't that bad, but the fact
of the matter is that Aphex's are so organic and beautiful -
intentionally or otherwise. With Autechre, a lot of tunes
they make seem to end up a bit...too...jumbled and sonically
ugly...

Don't you reckon the album "confields" is one ugly record?


 

aperson on 2001-11-26 00:00 [#00055525]



Nah, Confield is an AMAZING album in my opinion.

I like Ben, tell him to get Crunch since it's better too.


 

Meerkat on 2001-11-26 00:08 [#00055527]



Hmmmm....

I like Autechre's "Chichlisuite" and "Tri-Reparte"...must
just be me. But, I'll still beat Ben over the head with a
rubber hose.

Also, which album is better, I care because you do or RDJ
album?...I personally prefer ICBYD...


 

ww...MwmwM...ww from bologneville on 2001-11-26 00:11 [#00055528]



I guess we just have different musical tastes as I like the
RDJ album better out of those 2.


 

Meerkat on 2001-11-26 00:16 [#00055529]



See, the reason I like ICBYD over RDJ is just the nice
selection of tunes and the broad variety of them. I find,
despite RDJ being a brilliant record, it gets stuck in TOO
much jungle, you know. Sure there are the couple of songs
such as "Milkman" and "To cure a weakling child" which stand
out, but ICBYD is, to me, a more complete album.

But, despite the above, both whip the synth out of
Autechre...and there is a LOT of synth in that...

personally i thought confield was garbage, but i'll probably
be basically alone on that one..
