i talked to him today and told him Outkast and Moby were inspired by Aphex, and he says 'you say that for everyone' but c'mon..it's true! He doesnt believe other artists could be inspired by him..then he started to list every possible artist in his mind inspired by aphex..so i went off icq..first time ive ever got mad at him |

My roomate and i can kind of guess how people made hip hop/ drum&bass etc. My friend who is a good MC tried to argue that DJ Premier is better than Aphex Twin, more skilled at writing music. He thought DJ Premier wrote all of it like played the piano and some of the other instruments etc. We had to explain to him that he is a producer that only samples records and doesnt play any real instruments(if you just sample things your not really a musician), Premiers hip hop is some of the best. Richard is a classical composer, writes all of his music himself samples it and then pushes the capabilities of a sampler to the limit, does some super technical complicated editing and effects. Cant really compare the two one is a sampler and the other is a composer. Skill wise Aphex wins everyone who makes music using samplers, drummachines, syth's or computers in my opinion. |

is it true that aphex & prodigy just did a track together? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so are you saying the bomb squad, (public enemy's production team) aren't musicians, because their music is sample-based? man, get to fuck with your snobbishness - you think AFX never sampled anything? |

I hope they didn't! I saw the prodigy last summer. well........for me it's official: The prodigy sucks!!! I'm sorry for that. but I don't love them anymore. Since they screwed up my evening.... they aren't worth my time anymore..... :( |

the prodigy/aphex isnt true. i found this article at nme.com: Prodigy and Aphex Twin remix Jesus Jones JESUS COMES AGAIN! PRODIGY and APHEX TWIN are amongst the artists to have remixed veteran crossover act JESUS JONES on tracks set to appear on the band's greatest hits album. 'Never Enough – The Best Of' will be released on May 13 through EMI Liberty. The album comes as two CDs, the first with a selection of their hits including 'International Bright Young Thing' and 'Real, Real Real' and their new single 'Come On Home' – which will appear before the album in early May. The second CD features remixes, including Prodigy and Aphex Twin separate reworking of 'Zeroes and Ones'. The band will also release a DVD containing 12 of their videos. Jesus Jones will also head out on a brief UK tour to coincide with the releases. The dates are as follows: Nottingham, Rock City – May 14 Glasgow Cathouse – (15) Newcastle, Northumbria University – (16) Liverpool, Lomax – (17) Manchester, Hop And Grape – (18) Leicester, Charlotte – (20) Bristol, Fleece – (21) Birmingham, Academy – (22) London, Electric Ballroom – (23) |

it should be said that aphex's most recent tracks are 1/2 squarepusher |
||||||||
|
|

i wasn't sure about that anyways ;) t'was a while back when i was new to that board (compared to some people here i still am) when nacmat introduced me to confield, now i have all their releases and the rest as mp3'sbut i understand people not liking them for their lack of melody. imo their melodies aren't obvious, one has to listen for a while, they use a very strange langague that gets more and more complicated with every release. but then i never get tired of them, it just never gets boring, there's always something new to discover if he'd raise his hands up and down, like a butterfly, that'd be funny, no? bye |

all my friends don't respect richard's music , they just say , it's stupid : *zirp*,*klir*,*ufzg**klir**kneersh* and more. Are they to stupid? |
||||||||
|

if you don't appreciate RDJ's tracks then you probably listen to PAUL OAKENFOLD |

Response to: marlowe. I make sample based music and i definitely dont consider myself a musician, im a producer. The bomb squad / Public Enemy if they only sample records there producers, if they actually play instruments: piano, bass guitar whatever and then sample what they wrote there musicians. Aphex Twin is a musician, a composer he writes his own original piano works etc. Aphex twin does use a sampler but i doubt he samples other musicians riffs like in most hip hop. Producer is not a put down, but if your just a button pusher and use sampler you cant call yourself a musician. |

I'd like to think of, and do, DJ Shadow as a musician. however, I do see where you're coming from. IMO its a matter of opinion =) people I know don't even regard electronic musicians as musicians! they think they just press a button |

Read the respect list in the inlay of "The PRodigy Experience"... |

The only Aphex fans I know are you people! I've tried to convert some others to his music, but it's so FRUSTRATING... so fucking stupid... it's almost like they're disliking Aphex just to spite me... I bet they have dozens of MP3s by him that they listen to behind my back... fuckers. |

beethoven was a producer - composition is mainly about producing, not being able to play an instrument - you think beethoven could play every single instrument he ever wrote for? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know *exactly* what you mean, apart from the girls who know who say it sounds really good just to impress me (for some reason!) or sound 'underground' (comparitively) |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
I think you should respect your friends point, but still, plop out his eyeballs and play petanque with them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe you're just playing them the wrong tracks? you ought to start them out first with some early squarepusher |

"t'was a while back when i was new to that board (compared to some people here i still am) when nacmat introduced me to confield" __________________________________ hey I am glad you remember me as the one who introduced you to autechre. I was really useful back then in that case |

Is it just me, or do people either 'get' AFX, or not ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont care if its made up of just samples, its still music. therefore the person who made it is a musician. |
