I stand by what I said about Eple=Plaid
here's a few reasons why
1.the tempo 2.the breakbeat 3.the sounds used for the melody line 4.the key 5.the structure
the only thing that spoils the comparison is the trancey breakdown which of course Plaid have never really dealt with.
If anyone else wants me to die because I happen to have acute observation skills please at least try and disprove my argument first, cheers :)

I agree 100% with soundguy...Eple is VERY Plaid sounding...but it played regularly on MTV so you clowns will never allow it to be associated with Plaid.
One of the major pitfalls of this message board is that a lot of people don't seem to appreciate music for the fact it is music, instead you seem to like the music because of it's exclusivity.

Couldn't agree with you more. Get off your damn high horses people. Music is Music, who gives a feck who made it or how popular it is. IF it's GOOD, it's GOOD. Too many people listen to different stuff on this board because it makes them "different." To hell with that.

Wasn't directing that statement to just you, it's the general vibe I get from a lot of board members.

i agree with both yourself and ecnadniarb. music is not a status badge. i've said it before and i'll say it again, there's too much inverse music snobbery around - and surprising amount of it here on xlt.
and, yeah, i can see the connections between eple & some of plaid's more sample-based tracks.but not the album as a whole.
haven't listened to royksopp for quite a while actually. have to dig it out sometime; it's very much a summer evening's album in my mind.

the best summer evening album is 'Forever Changes', without a doubt.

Me and my GF used to chill to the last two "Sigor Ros" albums Summer just gone, you may need to arrange your playlist a little to get the best out of them but they work a treat.

*copy/pastes Fladoloby into list of artists to check out*
sometimes musical snobs get it right, sometimes they have their heads placed firmly up their arses, I'll give this guy the benefit of the doubt though, one of the reasons I registered here was to discover new stuff to listen to.
it better be good mate.
