for christmas this year i got a lot of gift certificates and i want you (xltronic members) to help me decide what to buy. first, i for borders/amazon.com and already placed an order for these: Freescha - Slower than Church Music Richard Devine - Asect:Dsect Those have already been ordered so i probably can't change them or anything. I also got enough gift certificates for Barnes and Noble that i figure I can get about 8 cds. these are 8 that i have selected: yee-king - super user : i have heard this is a good album. opinions? funkstörung - appetite for disctruction : i have not heard anything by this artist/group, what are your thoughts (this is the only full-length available at bn.com) jega - spectrum : i have geometry and it is excellent. from the samples this seems to be in a very different style however. how does this compare to geometry? jetone - ultramarin : i have only heard "ginotopia" by this artist from the tigerbeat6 inc compilation, and i think it is an very good track. i haven't seen this artist mentioned here. has anyone heard it? push button objects - dirty dozen : my favorite tracks from "ghetto blaster" are hustlin, 3 doctors, fly, and 360 degrees, and breakers delight. do you think this is a good choice? dat politics - plugs plus : i don't know much about this group but the samples and the track on tigerbeat6 inc compilation seem strangely intriguing to me.. tell me about this group. venetian snares - chocolate wheelchair : well im going to have to get this eventually. prefuse 73 - vocal studies + uprock naratives : not sure if i want this one or the new album. i like the track nunu on warp:routine compilation and i would prefer to go in chronological order. what do you think is better? what do you think about these choices? please tell me if you think anything should be added/subtracted/changed on the list so i can make a well-informed selection. THANK YOU! :D |

if you picked 8 cds and you can only get 8, then it's already decided, innit? |

Freescha - Slower than Church Music - Get the new one... I am not sure if it is out yet, and I forgot the name, but it is excellent Richard Devine - Asect:Dsect - Excellent choice funkstörung - appetite for disctruction : -well done, but uninspired and uninteresting jega - spectrum : - Geometry was amazing... spectrum just kind of sounded like second rate mu-ziq stuff. push button objects - dirty dozen : excelent... much better than ghetto blaster, but a bit more idm and less hip hop. Think earlier autechre venetian snares - chocolate wheelchair : best venetian snares album ever prefuse 73 - vocal studies + uprock naratives : get both this and the new one... but get this one first. |

well these are just some that i was thinking about getting. the only ones i have already ordered are the first 2 from borders/amazon. i would like to know if the others are good selections, and what is bad and maybe something that could replace it. sorry if there was any confusion.. |

Get the new Freescha, What's Come Inside You. Album of the year. Can't really go wrong either way, though. |

Freescha - Slower than Church Music Richard Devine - Asect:Dsect both excellent! yee-king - super user i remember liking it a lot, but haven't listen to it in a long lomg time... funkstörung - appetite for disctruction jega - spectrum not my thing... jetone - ultramarin this is tim hecker who's one of my favourite artists!!! it's different to stuff he's releasing under his real name, more beats, nice stuff push button objects - dirty dozen dat politics - plugs plus don't know these two... venetian snares - chocolate wheelchair one of best releases this year... prefuse 73 - vocal studies + uprock naratives don't like it at all, probably one of worst albums i ever bought... |

appetite for disctruction is shite. |

personally i'd avoid prefuse 73 choc wheelchair is a very good cd dirty dozen is good but not awesome i bought jega's spectrum first and it is great for its time - make sure you get the matador version as that has "unity gain" on it which the uk version doesnt have and its absolutly blinding funkstorung is overated personally i'd get one of funckarmas side projects quench - i have "punctuated" as its great as a autechre variant but stands up on its own merit yee king is a good acid style album and freesha's "slower than church music " is a really good ambient album with more than a hint of menace the others havent interested me as of yet |
