look what some people think about cds we love... aint it strange? i guess contrast is what makes the world go round:
(review of the RDJ album, from amazon) The best frisbee in my CD collection., March 1, 2001 Reviewer: kidamadeus (see more about me) from Warner-Robins, Georgia United States
As an electronic musician, audiophile, and as a fan of all types of music, I can say without a doubt that this is one of the worst CD's I have ever had the displeasure to purchase. My interests in music range from The Orb/Tangerine Dream to Sex Pistols/Fear to Kid Rock/Residents to Portishead/King Crimson to Stravinski/Zappa...in other words, I like almost everything. There is absolutely nothing redeeming about this recording. As for this CD being complex (as a previous review states), I couldn't disagree more. The loops used in this recording are primative, uncreative, and are tonally bad. Half of the CD sounds to me as if it were recorded from an early $69.00 Casio keyboard. The drum machine programming is inane, very monotinous, and has the overall timbre of an angry goose in a tin box. As for this recording being "ambient", sure it is...in the same way that a neighbor mowing his lawn while you try to take a nap is "ambient". I think if anything good can be said about this mess, it is quite possible that this CD has invented a new genre of music..."Annoying Ambient". I would give you mine if I hadn't already traded it.

more reviews: (not that i support of course) Modern day Mozart? Not even close!, December 9, 2000 Reviewer: A music fan from Denver There are actually some intelligent techno/dance artists out there but this is not one of them. Save your time and money for something worth while!
Who the hell likes ambient!, February 22, 2000 Reviewer: John N. Marshall (see more about me) from Kuwait This is junk. It just sits in my cd book saying "throw me away."
unusual maybe...., July 21, 1999 Reviewer: A music fan from Los Angeles Could somebody please explain me all that hype about Aphex Twin! I like electronic music and I really do appreciate bands like Leftfield, Underworld, Talvin Singh and such but I could never understand what people like about Aphex Twins music!? Am I deaf to his musical stroke of genius or is this one of those 'Emperors-new-clothes-dynamics? Open to input. Youdiss@yahoo.com
mindless dribble, May 17, 1999 Reviewer: A music fan from Oregon a child could have 'composed' this annoying crap. I dont think it can be called music. It's like a branch scratching on you window during a midnite storm whilst you're attempting sleep. Annoying, nothing better.
even with this reviews the total rate was very high, but... huhhh

I wont even take the time to read the whole thing, because that is the way he see it.....I totally disagree with him, the cunt who wrote that shite...
I think is one of his best one, and that cunt has to like experimental/electronic music....He dont mention any group who fill that description, ahaaaa...
We will see if he likes or dislikes electronic music...We just have to look to other of his reviews and coming ones and we will discover who he really is...
If he still do bad reviews for other electronic/experimental artists, then he is a real cunt...Because nor his mind or musical taste are ready for that kind of music.....RDJ is a God!@!!

I'm sure Boyband/Minogue etc. fans would be distraught with my review of their shit - claiming I didn't 'adequately' appreciate it or sum such .. such is the way of the world [or commercialism as it may be]

Drukqs isn't his best, and that's a fact.

Underworld suck. Leftfield are pretenders too. Drukqs isn't the best album Richard has done but his track record is definately one of the best.

Does anyone remember the review rolling stone gave Drukqs? They pretty much said it was shit. It might still be on their website...

It makes perfect sense accoarding to their music tastes. Some descent stuff, some really dated stuff that hasn't (imo) stood the test of time, and then Kid Rock. Enough said. I would never expect somebody with this musical taste to feel the RDJ Album.
