dont be silly. Most people here have tons of respect for Banksy, as they should. I don't hate TCH but i certainly don't love it either. I know a lot of people here do though. |

really a new hope and empire are the only truly good starwars movies, and both of those are great. 1/3rd of jedi is good, but the rest of it had to coast on the success of the other two. (imotep) |

Any new records which might fit the "IDM" genre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Monoid |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Precisely because it's a "genre", a formula, it's no longer a movement where there was some common aim at pushing at the barriers but the artists all sounded different, now it's skittish beats, ambient drones, maybe a cut up break if you're that way inclined... shall i have my Big Mac with the bap on top or the burger then the bap, or maybe the gerkin, then the bap then the burger.. still tastes like shit. |
||||||||

that one's not so much "cool" as it is "totally unavoidable." |
||||||||
|
|

|

i like monoid, maybe to be cool though. |
||||||||

I can understand why people might find the fact it's no longer pushing the barriers dissapointing and irritating, but that doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable. I mean, there's loads more albums within other genres that sound horribly alike (especially in the indie rock arena), and though there are lots of boring "IDM" releases about, I think there's always something special hidden away if you look hard enough. I'd rather have skittish beats and ambient drones, boring as they can get when they're done over and over again, than another whinging, dull, indie album. I can see your point, but I don't think "IDM" is the worst of offenders if we're talking about following a dull formula. I could listen to a fair few more albums with skittish beats and ambient drones myself, even if I'd rather something more original was done as in the old days. |

The fact that people nowadays can use software with a generic "IDM" demo patch on it i.e. reaktor / absynth has wrecked electronics for me. I blame technology for catching up with what people like Aphex was doing 10 years ago. That's what has ruined the genre for me I reckon. It means every cunt who can afford a laptop can do it now. Perhaps I should have posted this in the 'bored with electronics' thread. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I definately agree with you here. I'm not saying that generic sounding IDM is a good thing at all; I just think a few recent releases have been unfairly treated, and that the problem is even more prevalent in other genres then it is in this little sub-genre of electronic music. I cringe when I recognize preset "IDM" style preset patches on mp3s...but it's no worse then hearing those same fucking four chords again in a song, or those same lyrics on MTV Base. |

perhaps now we're waiting for someone to do something truly original with the nearly unlimited power that computers provide these days? someone with an amazing amount of imagination. unfortunately i think people who really want to do something unique are few and far between, even aphex seems stumped in my opinion (judging from the analords) |

some people use a hammer to hammer nails, some to murder people. |

exactly. im loathe to say it but in your analogy we need more murderers. |

What you say is true. The reason I'm so stupidly optimisitc about electronic music is that the potential offered by technology today is fairly flabagasting. Most of my favorite electronic music is from the 70s and early 90s, but I hope that people will start taking advantage of what's on offer. I had a go on Pro Tools the other today (I can't afford it myself) and it makes me sad that so many records sound so dull when there is so much potential for something great. |

You know what sucks is people who can't hear the difference between ten year old Aphex Twin and snotnosed messageboard IDM and won't stop whining about it. |

IDM needs to be defined before it can be revolutionized. Jazz was around for a good 20-25 years before Ellington came along. Took another 20 years for bebop to come around. Etc. |
