Jazz is cool.. Aphex is cool.. let's mix it!! |

Um, I think Squarepusher got there first. |

meho: which SP release do you prefer? or which "era" do you prefer from him? |
||||||||

Ok.. HipHop, then! |

It's a bit complicated: the first 'pusher release I heard was Hard Normal daddy and I was amazed. But than when I heard Big Loada I nearly shat my pants. It used to be my fave 'pusher record for a long time. I liked Music is rotted... but think that mostof the following releases were half baked, stumbling-through-darkness attempts. The early EP's collected on Burning 'n tree are also great (but if you hear them after Big loada and HNDaddy, they sound a bit naive, but still full on energy assault). Anyway, Go plastic is his most mature, most complex, most serious, most funny, fastest and best release so far. Which isn't to say that this will mean anything to you. |

Some of his acoustic piano stuff on Drukqs sounds like Thelonius Monk in some ways. Actium, from SAW v1, is VERY jazzy with that mellow keyboard riff that repeats throughout. |

How about Xploding Plastix (www.xplodingplastix.com) |

I think the obvious influence for Aphex's piano stuff is Eric Satie. At least that's how people have seen it in reviews. |

I gotta recognise I didnt enjoy go plastic the first times... it was ok for me but thats it...now I am really having great time with it... |

That's the way it works, man. |

Go plastic tends to be a little complicated but it's supertight and really really pushes Squarpusher's tactic of setting your expactations and than working against them, further into the space. I like it. Oh, by the way, Drunken Mastah, sorry that we turned this topic into something completely different, let's talk hip-hop and IDM stuff, have you heard Machine drum? Personally, I prefer it to Prefuse 73. |

What IS that on your picture, anyway, Meho? (Don't worry about changing the topic.. i just try to get some talking on) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
By the way.. i still think that Tom Waits or Busta rhymes could make a good mix with Aphex.. |
||||||||

Uh, everybody seems to be asking me about the picture since i've uploaded it. It's the cover of Merzbow's Music for bondage performance. Merzbow is my hero. |

Ok.. hmm.. does anyone know if Bjørk and Aphex has done a collabo(he went on a tour with her, i think, and i was wondering if something good came from it) |
