Now that electronic music is basically over, are those of us who still like it like those guys in 1995 that still listened to Poison and Motley Crue and wore spandex? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am starting to think that way, I am glad you put it so succinctly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
those heavy metal guys still exist. and they've established their own state where they can worship whitesnake freely. they call it, New Jersey. |
||||||||

"electronic music is basically over???" explain........ maybe i've been away from here for too long???!!! |
||||||||
|

|
|
Now that electronic music is basically over Why wasnt i informed ? Whats the next trendy music I should listen to ? |
||||||||
|
|

Polka. |

The thing is I still love the medium and the tools and the unexplored potential despite most people who work in the genre being stuck in circa 1998. |

|
yeah thats exactly what ive been thinking lately APHEX AND SQUAREPUSHER R THE CLASSIZZZXXX |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
With all this tuneless click and fart bollocks yes. Onwards and upwards to more interesting things i think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HAHA, oh so true, so painfully true. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Isn't it, i have been thinking that for ages now. I am trying to do something about it in my own little way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really like what Wevie Stonder create. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've thought along these lines for a while...... maybe things need to go back to the underground, I think thats exactly whats happening........ underground where the soil is more fertile. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think there are only a couple of exceptions to this rule who tryly take the time to create more than just tuneless or generic crap. Boards of canada and four tet i have faith in only these two electronica artists at this moment in time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But would you class either of those two as "IDM" ?........ I wouldn't. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i would |
||||||||
|
|

I think there's lots of interesting electronic music despite the largest part of it being shit - like delicious insects inhabiting a rotting cheese - you have to dig for the good stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
isn't part of the fun sifting through countless drivel in order to find that diamond? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Exactly - or to use a different analogy, the more manure, the sweeter the roses. It's probably a good thing for the scene to get overwhelmed and driven underground by drivel. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I wouln't......... I expect you are one of the people who was all for "IDM" as a genre? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the underground is growing everywhere... electronic will be there when the undergound flips over and crushes the majors like a bug |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh my, tuneless music! what a shocker!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's so exciting to not know what to think anymore! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm still shakin from the tuneless music, man! |
||||||||

I want to record Zamfir throwing soda bottles at bicycle wheels while James Galway scratches his fingernails on a chalkboard! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're expectations are incorrect, i loathe pigeon holes but they are convinient when discussing or differentiating music. even if i was, would it really matter? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And how could I forget Yanni's pioneering tape loops of Andrea Bocelli giving Helmut Lotti a swirlie in the boys' washroom! |

watch out what you wish for, Kermie.. it might come true!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Please tell me what to like so I will... know what to like. |
||||||||

It's kind of like living at home too long - at some point you're uncomfortable and embarrassed, and you know it's time for a change and you're wondering what comes next. |

Since when was there ever something wrong with hair metal? Fags. I especially love that transitional period when hair metal was on the way down, and yet better than ever. Mr. Big's ''To Be With You'' > Kraftwerk. FIREHOUSE BABY |

i think it does, yes. |

electronic music isnt over. its just surpassed the narrow definition of it that you created in your mind. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'd say there isn't enough meaningless scene accessories to justify it. |
||||||||
|
|

|

like i give a shit? it wasn't addrressed to you. |
||||||||

It's hard to let go, isn't it? :D I know what you are saying, but I think a whole era or epoch or stylistic period of electronic music is over and done. Of course electronic music will continue to be made. Hair metal was made with guitars; so was grunge and all its offshoots (I think it paved the way for a more widespread appreciation of "indie" than would have been possible otherwise). But what a difference between Cinderella and Nirvana. I look forward to the style of music that will bury IDM using IDM's own tools and tricks. Excelsior! |

"I know what you are saying, but I think a whole era or epoch or stylistic period of electronic music is over and done." yeah, it was called the Nineties, and ended about 4 years ago. |
