Hi am an Australian that's going to a music festival here in Oz which Aphex will be playing at and I wanted to get an idea of his sound.I know I could go download some of his music but I'm unable to do that for the time being. I'm into Progressive/Psy/Goa Trance and I know this isn't his sound. I've heard it's more electronic house type stuff or is it a more Prodigy,Paul Oakenfold,Club,House tye music. Any info would be appreciated! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uh...oh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
info? just go to a recordstore and spend some time listening to drukqs! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that about summed up my thoughts too zeus. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ouch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i used ot be into psy and and look at me now. so spare to uh ohs :) but really, at the same time i did enjoy ovuca, aphex twin etc. which arent _that_ far away from psysound please don't mention paul oakenfold :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Paul Oakenfold = Joyrex's evil twin. Honestly... just look at their pictures :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its true. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like 'Get out of my life now'. Or did, when Swordfish had come out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why do we have this function on the board....anybody realizes that ???? Go on Discography....there are so many aphex samples.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well then joyrex must be a very good person musicwise |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
uh......oh? what the fucks that suppose to mean i asked for advice not a fucking 2 syllable answer! But never mind I understand that some of you americans are slow....ur from boston could you originally be from alabama? Sorry for the Paul Oakenfold reference! It's obvious I'm wasting my time here with answers like uh.....oh! I just wanted a gerenal idea of his sound |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well you can't really decipher sound by words dear. and never call me american :) |
||||||||
|
|

I know it might sound like a dickish thing for him to say (and the way we have responded generally), but Aphex Twin's sound is so far removed from the artists you listed that it would be hard to compare to any of the artists you're likely to of heard of... I suppose the best example would be some of it it sounds a bit like kid a and amnesiac from radiohead. Really, your best bet would be to stream some of his music, if you're not allowed to do that, there's not a lot we can do to help- the terms we use would probably be meaningless to you... "drill and bass" ring any bells? |

aphex is like: going to a classic music concert and the sound the orchestra would do if the second floor fell on them, just surviving some percusionist and some violins still playing while people screamed while they die |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the sound of the floor falling also counts on the description |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes I've just heard a few samples and wont be wasting my 2 hours on him.He's just not my sound! I think I'll stick to my Trance thank you very much! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anyway, you most likely (certanly) won't get to hear much of his stuff, as he is usually playing a bit more dancefloor oriented stuff...drum n bass, gabber, electro, jungle,... you might get lucky and he'll play noise or something :) but if you can handle not so straight rhythm im sure he's going to exaust you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uh...oh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah could be best...to avoid the disappointment |

Think farries playing jazz on gossamer, Or if trees could speak to each other with electricity. That's aphex for me. Well, maybe that's going too far, but your opening question was definetly warranting an "uh, oh'..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aussies, why do they all listen to trance? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||

good way to get to know him might be checking him out live, i hear he's going to australia right on, nacmat whats up with all these trance forms |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
argh! trance! |

Good question bogala! I suppose it's because we dont get much european electronic(what ever you want to call it) i guess or american for that matter. In Oz here we have these dance parties called doofs,you'd more than likely have something similar in the states but they're out in the middle of no where in the bush,no cops and we can play what ever we want.I'd say it's cause we love a good dance and a heavy beat and Trance gives us that and people only go to them intent on gettin of their faces on acid,xtc,meth, u name it and having a good time listening to some good heavy psy/goa trance. Where I live, Nimbin ,australias answer to amsterdam some of you will know this place, trance is all u hear because it's so mind altering and us aussies love that,going out gettin off our faces and dancing the night away in the eraly hours of the morning,watching the sun rise! Also being so isolated from the rest of the world there isn't a great deal of talent that comes out to australia except when we have music festivals and big acts like Simon Posford and Infected Mushroom just to name a few come here and show us their great trance making abilities! Hope that's answered your question. |

seriously, if you want music to dance to, go see aphex...you WON'T be dissapointed. and it's always nice to try out something new |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cause it's heavy and u can dance to it all night long! |
||||||||

Do you suck on pacifiers eKLaB? Thats a pretty big thing to do at idm concerts. We act like we're all smart and cultured but really we're a bunch of babies. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphex is mind altering... listening to his sounds while on mind altering substances is fantastic... i fear that a potential convert has been scared away by some silly replies... certainly they were taken into consideration when he listened to grainy one minute samples... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"We act like we're all smart and cultured" haha, where do you go to idm gigs?? :) |
||||||||
|
|

"haha, where do you go to idm gigs?? :)" sometimes the local kmart has gigs in the parking lot on sunday afternoons |

mind alteration is overrated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you might like aphex classics. 'didgeridoo' by aphex...you could make it a national anthem. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everything is overrated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

yes true, we do have that but there are crews that put on lots of other parties, i'm part of some, theres some big names new years outdoor doof saw some fckd up noisecore, breakcore, drum n bass n more crazy stuff as well as the usual trance gabba gabba hey hey. There are quite a lot of electro artists and dj's here, we have so much more. its there man, most people just don't look for it so they don't know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also most people are happy with 4/4 and repetition. |
