After many meditations I can say who I prefer the old electronic music' style. Why? I prefer the old AFX and AUTECHRE album than the new. The year who changed the electronic music style could be 1995, imo. First of this year AFX released album like SAW (85-92), SAW VOL.II, POLYGON WINDOW, etc... Autechre released two great masterpiece like "INCUNABULA" e "AMBER"... then the sound changed suddenly. I like new style too but I find it a little bit cold compared the the old works. What do you think? |

i had SAWII on vinyl in 1994... i am not waiting for him to release "SAWIII" or joyrex J23 or anything - aphex's music has just developed - i don't prefer either period |

The real argument of my topic was the text below... : After many meditations I can say who I prefer the old electronic music' style. Why? I prefer the old AFX and AUTECHRE album than the new.

Yeah, agreed in a way... It was an odd time in the UK... Dance music was finally going overground and you had all sorts of strange tracks in the charts...and a lot of buublegum POPRAVE Nonsense tracks (Simple formula: Breakbeat + Childrens TV Theme = money money money).... So to kinda distance themselves from this easy sound & to move to an audience that wasn't entirerly tied to Breakbeats or 4-2-the-floor BDs, people like Aphex & Ae took things in a non-obvious direction....& like you say, you can hear it in the music...those initial Ae/AFX releases were fairly standard dance tracks but, anything post-93-94, is less geared towards the dancefloor & more experimental... shite, gotta go to work...will end this off later (might even make a bit more sense once I've got a few coffees down me neck...)... |

jand you sure talk the god darned honest truth! there was a time when i only heared dance music via dodgy old crusty tapes copied and recopied off of mates, now its fuckin everywhere from tampon adverts to even that fucking lame 4 to the floor beat that comes in with the news headlines! thank god for the experimental! |
