drukqs. listening to it now. masterpiece. drukqs is the rolls royce, uv is the skoda |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs is art, an endpoint of that style though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ultravisitor isn't even good. Squarepusher has run out of ideas. Drukqs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did anybody at all vote for uv? its also a great album I think but drukqs is too much |
||||||||

drukqs, one of the best albums ever made |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was listening to Ultravisitor on my headphones today. I prefer Joy Division |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've actually been giving UV a more thorough listen recently.. there is good stuff in there but Duckqs takes me somewhere else. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Duckqs" tehehehe. is that by aflak twin? drukqs was my first and favorite electronic album evarrrr. until i listened to confield. droooooooool. |
||||||||

drukqs |

COMPUTE : UV vs DRUKQS INIT VS SEQUENCE .... ..... ........###3 SEGFAULT! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
uv totally sucks drukqs totally rocks, 92% of it anyways |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was way too harsh on UV in this thread, I gave it another decent listen and there is good stuff in there, District Line II is excellent, like bathing in drill'n'bass. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
(obviously) drukqs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uv has tetra sync and steinbolt, so it gets my vote out of pity, since the rest of it just isn't up to par. drukqs is really the better album, and the be all end all of drill n bass. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ultravisitor flows perfectly into drukqs, next time you have a good few hours chilling at home queue both albums up and listen to them through,... it's well wicked. ultravisitor took me more time to get into than drukqs, but now I like them both equally but in different ways,.. sorreh |
||||||||
|

|

drukQs gets another vote from me for being so amazing :> |

steal softly thru sunshine, seal softly thru snow. |

| |||||||||
|
|
both |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if it wasnt for "mount st. micheal"..... drukqs would be a LOT worse. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what about meltphace 6, 54 cymru beats, cock/ver 10? u dont like those? i thought those were incredibly good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh... they're really good but not HAB or RDJ good - to me. i want more "complicated mathematical equation" type stuff, which he delivers in concert, so thats good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's the overal score then? 70-2? 68-4? |
||||||||
|
|

ah, who's counting! |

Drukqs. I don't like Ultravisitor. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Ultravisitor actually is like putting your ear up close to a puddle of piss in comparison to Drukqs. I was listening to Ziggomatic v17. It is better than Squarepusher's entire catalogue. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, not entire catalogue. Journey To Reedham from Big Loada EP is cery good as for me. |
||||||||
|

"It is better than Squarepusher's entire catalogue" The beat tracks on druqs sound like cut n paste jobs with fuck-all discernable thematic flow to them. RDJ even said he worked on a lot of them while on holiday touring france... and it shows. As fro UV dancefrontdoor.co.uk sdays it best "From his perspective, his challenge is to find the point of tension between his two loves – his all-time passion, playing bass and the drums – alongside the satisfying mental absorption he finds in programming and sequencing on a computer. To hold these two divergent ideas in his mind at the same time, and imagine music that redefines emotional intensity and explodes restrictive genre boundaries of musical language – welcome to the odyssey that is Ultravisitor. " ............. drukqs is to scatterbrained for an album. i agree with most critic in saying his SAW2 album was his best "studio" work. Beats wise, HAB, RDJ and his recent live sets are far superior to the fisher-pricey percusiion on Druqks. Just my opinion. |

IT'S ALL GOOD! |

|
|

Definately Drukqs. So many good tracks on that album: omgyjya, mt saint michel, hy a scullyas, qkthr, ziggo, afx237, petiatil, cymru, taking control, ruglen holon...they're all good!! Actually Ziggomatic17 is my fav aphex track ever i think, and one of my all time favourite tracks but, sure, tetra sync is amazing too |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
btw, the Venus no7 12" is lovely |
||||||||
|
|

Ultravisitor is better than Drukqs IMO cause UV has some very good tracks (Ultravisitor, Iambic 9 poetry, Tetra-sync) whereas Drukqs have nice tracks but not of the same level. Drukqs is the kind of album that you like when you hear it but after you forget it because it's filler from the first song of the first CD to the last of the 2nd IMHO. Richard D James releases no tracks those days cause he has no ideas any more IMO. Squarepusher has become better than RDJ because he works more on his tracks, he is more serious. Nevertheless those two artists are behind Autechre for the textures, behind Venetian Snares for the rythmes and behind BoC for the samples. Squarepusher is better for the melodies, even if UV shows a starting lack of ideas (i hope it won't last). Richard D James is better for nothing except for beeing Richard D James and for having had the good ideas at the good moment. But RDJ album remains the best IDM album of all times to my mind. |
