i totally agree with that. aphex is so changinglike and so good at everything he does... his music is full of creativeness and imagination... melodies are so original and beautifull, its hard and soft at the same time... and it never makes you feel cold... all opposite its warm... aphex is such a genious that comparing many others whith him makes them look too simple.
Autechre is not that "camaleonic" (changing) but they have reached such a perfection in their evolutive process that they are at the same level (IMHO)... they seem to be always on the same battle, but they change with every release because they never stop investigating

Didn't Bomb The Bass get that name from Naked Lunch by William Burroughs...
BugPowder was the addictive drug the exterminator used to kill cockroaches etc....before finding out it was a hallucingenic drug and he finds his wife shooting it up...
Made, I believe, from MugWump Jism...which you really don't wanna know any more about...
Good book, good film...

oh so because the chemical brothers are more commercial it means they are shit? Come on, that's pure nonsense. first of all, they are not very commercial because they've had only a few top charts (at least where I come from). I like aphex more than TCB but they're quite good none the less.

imho, the chemical brother sound isn't that cool as it used to be, when their first album came out.
i mean, who *really* cares about bigbeat-stuff today?

Exit Planet Dust......That one is a must if you wanna get one.....
But IMO they are all cool.... I think it all depends on what kinda mood your in....
If your in a drinking/dancing mood...the Chem's are grrreeeat.

around the time of 'chemical beats' which came out on junior boys own it was like 'wow!!!!' then the first album came along and it was like '...oh' and then it was like '..erm new album? who cares?' now its just like '...erm-stop releasing music-please'. the chemical brothers were good when they were called the dust bros and that was about it..sorry but there is much much much much much more interesting and fantastic music out there-why listen to pap just for old times sake? they've lost it, but there a trillion of unheard artists out there who do have it-id prefer to spend my time. energy, money and ears with them.

Chemical Brothers are GREAT! Their newer stuff isnt as cool I dont think... but its still OK. Exit Planet Dust is a masterpiece of break beats and tehcno.

If you don't know track#2 from Surrender (Under the influence), try to download it... but when you'll listen it would be better you don't pump up the volume too much...

You was really unlucky... in the world there's a lot of fuckin' ppl.
Anyway I have these three cd too.
.Surrender is a great album. .Homework is a good album, my fav track is number #4 (Da Funk), I love that song.
.Propellerheads with Dasdrumandrockandroll or something similiar is a nice album but nothing more, I think it's a little bit boring.
Hey Nacmat, we listen the same music, we've very simliar music taste!
-surrender(chem) -homework (daft punk) -propellerheads

yea i have noticed that since everytime we talk about other artists not being autechre or aphex, we seem to like very similar music... its good to find a person that having lived in a different country and having had different experiences in life, seems to have been listening to almost the same music as yourself

Chemical brothers are all right in my opinion. I got Dig your own hole as a gift and i started to really like a lot of the tracks. I got Surrender and was disappointed with a lot of the album, with the exception of out of control & hey boy hey girl. I haven't heard any of their new album yet, i've heard both good and bad things about it.
