so, do you think that we should have more respect for those who are mastering instruments, or for those who made them ?
its a stupid idea to compare kraftwerk to afx, yes, but really, even compared, afx would probably say he was influenced by german group. not the german group by afx..
or, as i know the bitch already, he would say just " fuck off". which is a proof that he shouldnt be higher than kraftwer. or something like this. almost.

it seems a bit futile to vote based on historical significance. i think this poll measures community 'buzz' around particular artists, and gives a great idea of what mb members are excited about.
arguing about who between kraftwerk/aphex is a bit futile.. it took several decades for it to be clear where and how kraftwerk influenced modern music. i think it will be at least another decade before we can say the same about aphex.
i honestly think both kraftwerk and aphex are more "important" (whatever the fuck that means) than fennesz, but i don't walk around going "holy crap! aphex twin!" (or worse, "whoa! kraftwerk!") because they're just so STANDARD by now -- not that they're banal, but so well defined and imitated that their sound just can't excite me all that much. fennesz, on the other hand, i've been absolutely delighted with for this past year, and i'd be much happier to see him top the list as an indicator that xltronic is dynamic and amorphous rather than a loquacious altar of aphex worship.

he doesn't fight at all...that's the trouble. if he'd release an album already, im sure he wouldn't have problems qualifying.
