i put 10 eurocents on it's gonna suck monkey balls |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I place 10 monkey ballz on it being non-sucky. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No way, it's the begining of a new era, it'll herald IDM II, it's going to be the moistest, juiciest, sauciest music we've ever heard. I bet ten kroner on it being "the acest" and will restore RDJ as Baddest DJ. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im gonna win those ten monkey balls of you! |
||||||||
|

It shall be Average. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but average is crap really, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well it'll still be aphex, smojphace was still kinda cool |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think it'll be fucking great. like everything else hes done |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my very vague intution thinks it's going to be average too. anyway it would have to be really great to catch my attention, with just 13 minutes of music and me having lost half of my interest in idm... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Average is worse than crap because it's not even funny. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree with big, as much as I wouldn't like it to, it will indeed suck monkey balls or perhaps even lick bloody dildos. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
depends, some crap can be crap in an unfunny way too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm betting my account here that its going to be amazing. if it sucks, i'm done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you cant say everything he has done was amazing, lets straigh up some facts- some of his CD's were average, and some were even shit. saying that all was amazing makes you look kinda silly. like a child who never gets enough of ice creams's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It only has to be on par with any of the Drukqs drill stuff and I'll be satisfied. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"saying that all was amazing makes you look kinda silly. like a child who never gets enough of ice creams's. " care to explain. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will find it to be crappy to mediocre, is my guess. this is what has happened with most of Aphexeseses musics and my ears and my brains. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, sorry - I put all of big's money on it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
minus the 10 cents he is betting himself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, its obvious that when you are saying things like "everything he has released was superb, great, orgasmic" you act like a child that "loves ice creams" - when youre adult you know that some falvours are good, some not, but ypoungies love ice cream wheter taste is good, or not good- its just about ice creams. its the same here - blindness that is caused by lazyness and stupid way of thinking that says "no matter what will happen, AFX aill be the best". as for the electronic scene he might be a precursor of some movements, but some on, his time is over - thers a loads of better stuff, like proem, jega, bola, d'arcangelo, ( and im not mentioning ae or squarepusher ), cex, not to mention about other electronic / not drill stuff.. everything has its own time, so as Aphex., and sticking to only one convention make you look like a blind person. i hope thatc clear enough. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
perhaps the guy simply likes aphex's music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but maybe, just maybe, it's all relative. taste and things. i for one certainly didn't like ANY effing ice cream flavour as a kid. in fact kids can be quite difficult, and often fine critics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What the fuck 'had his time'? He might be past his prime (could've been the case with Drukqs, considering how quiet he had been) but old stuff can still be as good as new stuff.. depending on your tastes. Just ask Ophecks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and its sad, really sad that some people will never lhear stuff like steve reich / ruoji ikeda coz of blind love to old afx stuff. check for yourself - these artists ihave mentioned are not known by most of people here, while music they create is zylion times more creative than music of afx - and to be completely honest, in past few years, in period after "come to daddy" was released, afx is not too creative anymore- just the same style, over and over. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
had his time nit as "he should leave scene", but read it as " hes still good / but not the best anymore". theres a diference. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
come on, there is difference between "i like afx" and " everything from afx is the best". a big difference. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what kind of ridiculous assumption is that? steve reich? i think most people here have atleast heard of him, and if they honestly prefer afx, then thats their right. you're digging yourself into a very pretentious hole. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you think that everything afx has released is great, than thats what you think. i personally think every single thing BOC has released is good to great. thats my opinion. doesn't make me close minded or anything else. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't think this will be good... well actually, put it this way: if the tracks that he is about to release were on Drukqs in the place of other tracks, i have a feeling i would love them like i love the tracks on drukqs that they are replacing... but it's just going to be more of the same, and it gets predictable after a while... when is he going to but out his bloody noise album like the performance he did in paris... damn you aphex... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, its just im amazed by the fact that moost wont admit that afx is not the best musician in teh world anymore, yet they still are tryin to prove this - for others and for themselfs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that goes for anybody who has a blind love for any kind of music. and even then it's that person's choice. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the hell? i happen to think hes the best artist working right now. "best" meaning my favorite. you're trying to objectify something thats totally subjective. its idiotic and completely pointless, and you don't really have any right to inform someone that their taste in music is wrong or outdated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes it is personal, but i dont judge these people - for me its just sad, but what can i do - its more sad when you know that every thing you will say which isnt a compliment, will cause flaming. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree but for me, truly great drill'n'bass is instantly compared to Drukqs, which set the standard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who's flaming you? if people word their disagreement with you, this doesn't mean they're flaming you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I will probably buy it regardless. Then if it sucks, I'll just keep the analord case to hold my druqks audiophile vinyl. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have i informed anyone that their taste is outdated ? no. youve said good to great - and i can see gradation here. while in the other posts i can see only great. no gradation. now i dont mind if hes great to you or someone else, its just sad that ppl are too lazy to search for new things, coz they think that old ones are the best and nothing can beat them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
quality isn't subjective |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dare to say that drill'n'bass regulations were set by older albums made by aphex, and squarepusher ( big loada ? ) , also by bogdan raczynski, and probably some others i havent heard . drugqs were natural extension of the genre, and nothing more- it wasnt even in half as innovative as "comme to daddy" for example. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, everything is subjective, but thats another topic entirely. what happened to listening to music and judging it on personal tastes instead of preconcieved notions and opinions about artists and their careers? or did that way of approaching things never exist? you people remind me of a bunch of aging music critics debating totally pointless nonsense. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jesus, "innovative". who gives a shit. if the music is good, its good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, you're wrong. everything is not subjective. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if we're talking art, yes, it is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't have very high expectations. Please cite an instance where an artist trying to revert to 'their old style' has worked and been really good? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, well for you its nonsense and for me when you will say "everything made by this artist" i will think that its not true thing to say - to admire artist works and fake believe that there is no weak points inhis works are two different things, thats what is all about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
art is everything? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I bet you it's gonna be like old school 1993 style acid. I hate 1-5-9-13 poo poo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok but what people? and has it occured to you that you could also be missing out on allsorts too, as a kind of logic? i personaly am not the biggest of aphex fans, but then on this site what do you expect? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really hope dog_belch is right... windowlicker equation track times 7... but I think it might instead be something forgettable mostly TO ME. unorganic and unsophisticated breaking no new barriers really..The masses of morons will love it though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well maybe for you, maybe you just like to listen to good music, but for me music should be innovative - im not satisfied by "just good music" im looking for something special in music which will be not only good, but special. thats why my discography hasnt go 10000 titles, but just few, but for me these few beats simple 10000 titles in a second. |
