I am listening to his Access Rhythm for two weeks... and still can't figure out why is everybody happy with it? Absorb said that it is "hottest thing", so what's hot in it? Most reviews from his official page are extrimly positive... Whats up? there are no new beats in it... nothing new in melody... I love Scott Herren coz he has great melody, great beats, great samples... great everything. Can't say anything positive about Jimmy... |
||||||||

strange that. i'd expect his official page to say something more like 'yeah well its alright but it could be better' |

Re City Alley Is Superb, not too happy with the downtempo tracks. |
||||||||

He recorded the tracks when he was 18, I think he is an artist to watch. His sound will develop. |

Actually pretty much everything I've heard from the community has been something along the lines of "meh." I think its nice enough, I would never buy it though. |

quote from official site "Jimmy is one of the most talented artists to have emerged from the new worldwide wave of electronic producers" |

I wouldnt go as far as saying that, good for a first release, nothing groundbreaking though. 'Re City alley 'works well in my sets, i have a lot of people asking about it. |

quote from Absorb.org "...this is t-h-e hottest thing for 2004 and beyond. this is jimmy edgar..." |

I agree. Re City Alley is the best track from his EP. But it is still not the hottest thing of 2004... |

kristuit salu vs. morris nightingale - my mines was fucking good album. hope he continues making such music at warp, too. |
||||||||

I agree it's good for parties .. but I can't believe this little shit is on warp. this is aphex, autechre, squarepusher, scott herren, et al. it's cool music, but it's a little base/undeveloped and therefore not really worthy of a multialbum warp contract. y'kno? |

Nothing special IMO. The minute i shit my pants with delight then we might have a winner. |
||||||||

I know!!!!! That's what i fell about Jimmy.... No matter if he is 19 or 20... some tracks from Richard's Selected Ambient Works vol1 were made when he was 16 -17... And they are 6 times better then Access Rhythm :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i would describe the sound as "trend hop" but the vinyl packaging is delightful |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can divide music in two categories: made by aphex twin and not made by aphex twin i think to compare this youngstar with the inventor of modern sound is silly. i would give "my mines" on merck a change (as i said). it's pretty awesome |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is very true. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"trend hop" ahahh! :D good one! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i am not comparing the music... i am comparing the age :-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

the packaging is great. the designers republic. as for the content. no, its not autechre. no its not richard. you seriously cant expect every release to be of that magnitude from warp? i think its great they are willing to take chances with what they consider up and comers. i think its good that hes getting that oppurtunity, even if his first release doenst match up to anything rdj did when he was 17. so irrelevant... |
||||||||

come on almost all new warp is 'meh' :P on a serious note, i think its nothing new. its hyped, and i hate it becuz it sounds like commercial produced crap |
||||||||
|

|

ERH WHAT? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats what. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats like the old silly attitude of 'we want the old back' |
||||||||

jimmy edgar is funky, fresh and absolutely something to go crazy to at a dancefloor. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all new warp is shit eh. right cause you so know so much about classic warp. please kid, you were born in 87. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my thought exactly... i imagine his mp3 collection? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

The EP on Warp is shit, without question. Jimmy is a total investment, his programming skills are without a doubt some of the best I?ve heard, and I imagine in a year, or two he?ll be on top of the production game. If you haven?t heard his audio.nl release, I suggest you do ? It might put things in perspective. As for Warp now, they really don?t matter. They?ll never release anything that will amount to Fuse, Mike Ink, AFX, LFO, Black Dog, but what?s it matter? There is a plethora of new labels who have taken the dominance Warp once had, and, hell, I would even call labels like Kompakt, Ghostly International, Schematic, etc. a hell of a lot more consistent then what Warp was. |

Fuck "?" Xltronic hates good typography! |

I guess i am disappointed in how (imo) warp kinda took a turn for the worse. Not like it used to be. To me, i dont want to see that happen to any good label :/ |
||||||||

The hype machine strikes again, in earnest. Decent album, but... that's it. But he's just a young 'un yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The age is not an issue. It's fucking boring stuff, imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dig it. None of the tracks are as good as that mp3 on his site "Check Out My Gold Tooth" though. Man, you people are gonna bitch when his full-length comes out. |
||||||||

Hes L.p. on Merck was better |
||||||||
|
|

Why is he using racial slurs in his tracks ? Ho Ass Niggers ? Yeah aight, stfu Whity |
