APECS TUIN. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
who cares, they're both labels that have released quality music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well yeah true not "better", i just wondered if people had a preference for one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think we know where I stand. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Personally I don't have preferences for them. Like xf said, both have released music that I like. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I like sony music the best. |
||||||||
|

It's a tough choice. Rephlex had an awesome year with Analord but Warp also released a couple of gems last year that I'm really enjoying. Jackson and His Copmputer Band is a standout release for me. It exudes quality. Rephlex countered with DMX Krew CD which is sweet as. |
||||||||

That question is redundant and short-sighted. Neither can be better or worser than the other as it's almost exclusivly a subjective matter. I suppose you could measure "betterness" on how much money they made, how many new artist they signed up and they're relative popularity in terms of fan numbers- ofcourse the latter is highly inaccurate seeing as we're all likely to have more than one preferred artist. (again going back to subjectivity) |

yeah, sony even give you free programs with their cd's! extra value! |
||||||||

hmm, yeah its pretty much impossible to say which is better outta the two. even tho i personally would... maybe say warp cos they have heaps of quality stuff, rephlex do to, and warp have also been signing some less popular artists. + their last two aphex twin releases (hab and 26 mixes) both have some screw ups. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Much prefer the releases from Warp overall over the years... |
||||||||
|
|

I was assuming that the question wasn't literally asking which is the best, just folk's opinions. Neither is better. I just think Warp is better. Their roster is far more varied in style and more consistent in quality (at least they were for a long time - some questionable signings in recent years). Rephlex, while putting out some corking stuff, seems to have a narrower palette, and, to be honest, a fair selection of releases are actually a bit boring. Don't make me post those warp cover montages again. |

warp about ten years ago? |

therre you go again, missing the point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, counted that in, so basicly they are better than ever. sweet* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Can you e-mail them to me instead then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Exactly what I was gonna say! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't find them! I do have the hi-res versions I made the montage images from though... well, all except the most recent few which I've not had time to get round to scanning... I just snatched low res versions from t'net for them |

That's a shame. It's the thought that counts. |

I found the singles ones! |

Sweet. Right click -> Save as. |

I prefer to listen to music I like. I don't give a shit who created it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that wasn't the point. there's a difference between being concerned only with where music originates and recognising that a lot of good music originates from a particular source. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agreed! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So with that logic, the question in the first post is just a glorified math question with variables based on personal views, not just a straight up opinion like my post. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
When Warp started out, a lot of techno and house records were experimental anyway. Then as the years go by, you can see how they moved more towards the home listening stuff as dance music became more commercialised. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, no, the question in the first post was a slightly awkwardly phrased attempt to get opinions as to which is the preferred label. For whatever reasons. Your opinion, while completely acceptable, reasonable, and one I also share, doesn't really answer the question. I'm not trying to be argumentative... I'm far too tired... just sayin' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i think every release in rephlex is very interesting and worth checking out (wether it's shit or not), warp releases some great stuff, and some crap too. My concept of rephlex is that the guys there are trying to make a point. and I get that point and I share the view with them. so to sum up, I like rephlex better |

Reminds me of that Father Ted episode whem Dougal hung around with the badboy priest: Who d'ya loike behst? Bluhr or O-asis? Blur? Whaaat?!? Oasis! Oasis! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, ah i miss father ted yeah i didnt mean which was actually "better" just which was more publically prefered |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they've both been sliding down hill pretty steadily the last few years...i would said plaid's double figure and astrobotnia were the end of the magic (well soundmurderer won them some points back but rephlex hasnt been anything near what they used to be) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's good stuff on both, there's bad stuff on both. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that depends which records were talking about... they are only record labels . surely the artists and music produced is of more importance. ? so which do you prefer.....: ARTISTS OR LABELS (do you prefer them labels that release a series of similar 12" records of various artists, , , using the identity of the "series" and label as the main point. . . i.e. early warp, metroplex etc . . . . or a label that takes a back seat and each artist represents their own individual styles, ,, as warp more recently has become IMHO) ? |
