Snares is not the only guy doing this kind of music. why the spotlight? i probably just don't get it...again. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because he releases an unearthly amount of records, would be my guess. it's hard to miss (I still succeed pretty well at missing most of it though, luckily). also people like icons for a genre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The attention-whoring coverart and titles? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because he is the best of the shit? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's consistant if not to everyones taste |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit indeed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh shut up who actually cares? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
phobiazer00. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because he is good at it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's because he sticks out in the otherwise overcrowded market of breakcore. he does a good job at breakcore and doesn't make it sound like badly produced drum&bass. |
||||||||

|
one snares album = all snares albums |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is true... he's the only one i can tolerate. there might be more... but i can't think at this moment. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
songs about my cats = infolepsy??? no, listen and then talk |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
anyone heard meathole? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've checked out the samples on boomkat. but I dunno I didn't really like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's fun, and has had some good ideas, that's all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who the fuck else has made an album like Winter in the Belly of a Snake!!!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
an elephant. but unfortunately no one was here to hear it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only said to piss people off, i do belive that if snares put in the effort he puts into 3 albums into 1 each year, he would be among the top 3 idm/electronic artists |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah he releases EVERYTHING instead of just the quality I reckon |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what is not quality from rossz or infolepsy? what would you consider filler from hccbu or chocolate? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah I just think that in each album that there is only 2 or maybe 3 songs that are "amazing" the rest range from half decent to average to boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've just got higher standards, and I don't think that his albums are made up of "filler" tracks but compared to his REALLY awesome tracks, most of what he does sounds pretty average, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fair enough I use to enjoy the whole album when I listen to sanres... tastes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed. i heard somewhere that mr funk tracks are only released one or two years after being produced. thatd mean that meathole was produced in 2003 and that he got samples from kill bill in 2002 |
||||||||
|

Snares Sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't understand people who think his music is shit -- his music is quite often mindblowing in intensity and intricacy - I think he is so well-known because he doesn't limit himself to drill, just like aphex is so famous because he, too, doesn't limit himself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed. + he's great live as nacmat will testify. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's great live, but i don't feel any wiser afterwards. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think Snaresy is trying to make nerds wise 8 ) It's just well done Music that goes from silly to intense with a bit of nonsense thrown in. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
meathole, though a more traditional snares, is actually very very good indeed. it's like he's taken his thang and polished it. more depth and character to the sounds and etc. </stuff> |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I still haven't checked that out yet.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, he's great at what he does, i'll give him that. i haven't seen people dance lying on the floor before.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Like every genre of music, 95% is shit but he's one of the good guys. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think his some of his albums are great and i listen to them as much or more than my aphex albums. it's interesting how controversial he is - a lot of people here either love him or hate him... i guess that's really a good reflection on an artist. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"either love him or hate him" there's a very specific reason for that - all his songs sounds exactly the same therefore if you love one you love them all and if you hate one you hate them all :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
breakcore kind of reminds me of how hardcore punk wound up - you'd have the innovators like bad brains and minor threat followed by everyone and their mother playing the exact same riffs at stupidly fast speeds shouting the same shit about hating reagan and fighting... most of anything winds up being generic at best. |

Rossz and Chocolate Wheelchair are masterpieces in completely different ways. And HCCBU is probably the one album I own that I can say I hear new bits in EVERY time I listen to it. There's so much sound in there that moves just a little faster than the human brain can pick up that it requires hundreds of listens but it has enough melody and composition to be pleasing on a superficial level too. Personally I think you guys are just jealous if you want my honest opinion. I mean fair enough if it isn't your cup of tea, but if you don't like the music you must at least admit that it's unbelievably well produced and programmed. |

exactly. |

He's pretty good but he's a bit ''overexposed'', as it were. I find it hard to get psyched for his albums. He does have a lot of interesting sounds but there's only so much of said sounds I can take. As far as breakcore goes, he's pretty much as good as it gets, I'd say his talent and workrate earn him that spotlight. I like Xanopticon better though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see the ":D" but his songs do sound different. have you heard HCCBU and horse and goat? even compare his early breakcore stuff with find candace and roszx sliligislug. very diverse. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
slight difference at most :) |
||||||||

^ Heh, sorry man but that's balls. |

Mr Funk is clearly and scientifically proven to be made of marmite because you love him or hate him and like marmite i like to eat the yeasty lil fucker i love his crazy hemiola's 7/8 counterpoint and basic FUCK OFF sound i dont see why people slate his releases as sounding the same because he uses his bass drum sample alot (yes he does its obvious) but the music is always great moonglow is very imaginative and connected# basically if all idm artist's were to be exploded due to anti terrorism measures and only one could not be blown up i would choose mr funk id tell u why but i will get lynched for it |

i'm more indifferent than loving or hating. the only full length i've heard is "songs about my cats." his tracks just often seem like frantic noodling, busy and noisy but unmemorable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
slight diference at most? please listen to infolepsy and then to witboas or listen to winnipeg and then to rossz or better, listen to making orange things and then listen to chocolate or try with printf and then with moonglow man, he IS diverse but not only that. he is top quality music wise, great beats, great melodies (songs about my cats) great production, very jazzy and funky (higgins, 2370948, badmington, moonglow...), also funny (chocolate) and above all, he is fucking mindblowing live (as jiverdicker said) just be happy to experience epidermis live... thats incredible |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i do like marmite, though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats why you indifferent if thats the only one you've heard all the way through |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and about being overexposed (lots of releases) just look at aphex in the years 91-96, cos he released like one album one mini album and 3 eps each year |
