just got back from visiting new york city and rhode island. I bought 7 or 8 cds heres what I got and what I think of em so far: -Mogwai: My Father my King: 7/10 (waste of 20 mins, not enough happens but its decent) -Cex : Role Model: 7/10 (Haven't listened to much but seems alright but nothing special. whats with this saying 10,000 people bought this cd. that seems like a lot, i thought even autechre,squarepusher didnt sell this much but I really have no idea) -Aesop Rock: Labor Days 8/10 -cLOUDDEAD - ST : 9/10 -International Noise Conspiracy 7/10 (they have good politics in all their booklets but most of their music isnt even nearly as good as their politics. theyres songs arent even that political) -Godspeed You black emperor - Slow riot for new zero kanada 9/10 -Autechre - peel Sessions 2 8/10 -Plaid - Peel sessions 6/10(my first plaid cd, its not all that great sounds very amateur compared to many other idm artists and its a little too uninteresting for me) |

Autechre peel sessions kicks some ass! Get plaids Double Figuere.. its much better... there peel session wasnt all that great..... sounds like generic dance. Or get Tried By Threes thats much better too |

It's so weird seeing Kramer talk so seriously about anything, especially INTELLIGENT dance music. :^D |

i didnt wanna spend a lot of $ so I got the cheapest one they had. I'll try a full length of theirs before I decide what I think of them. thanks for the reccomendations. |

1)to rococo rot - the amateur view 2)philip glass - kundun ost 3)giardini di mirò - the soft touch ep 4)aphex twin - on machineofgod try the last 2 plaid album & the p-brane ep, the peel session you've bought are from the earlier material and not so intresting |

another thing about plaid that I find annoying is that in an interview they said they listen to and like mainstream R&b. I just can't see an idm artist liking this sorta stuff. also the song names on Peel session sound like a joke or theyre trying to make up words that sound cool but they fail at it. plaid just doesnt seem up to par with afx,autechre,jega,squarepusher,uziq etc. but once I have a full length I'll make a final decision. |

I saw a bunch of aphex stuff at the store that I wanted. I saw On ep. 1 had a big logo and 1 had a small. I didnt notice any song differences so I didnt know which On Ep to get. I also saw that Mike and Rich cd for 14.99 but didnt know what it sounded like so I didnt get it. also saw ventolin ep. if i had a lot of $ i would have bought em all but alas I dont. |

Plaid arent that great. |

i think plaid is much more focused and sound sooo much more professional than autechre,,,,autechre sucks,,,there i said it. I have about 6 of their cds and i think almost all of them are pretty shit. |
||||||||

|

i'm not a big fan of plaid either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You think autechre sucks, and yet you have six of their cd's? :-p What were you thinking when you bought the sixth one then? I mean, you already had 5 of their album which you think are pretty shit... why on earth would you buy another one? |

george REALLY likes the p-brane ep from plaid.... i haven't heard anything else by them yet, but p-brane is awesome! I never thought IDM could sound so catchy and accesible! |

Hey DHex, do you want to sell your Autechre cds to me? |
||||||||
|
|

|

the difference between the two on eps you saw was that one is the original (w/ the small afx logo) and the other is the remixes (w/ the big afx logo) the only track that appears on both of them is the reload mix and the last bunch of cds i bought: fridge - happiness aim - hinterland fog - fog slowdive - souvlaki a silver mt zion - he has left... and born into trouble... stereolab - aluminum tunes brian eno + harold budd - the plateaux of mirror ...and still in the mail: telefon tel aviv - fahrenheit fair enough savath+savalas - the rolls and waves... slicker - frustrache beneath autumn sky - enki-dus mono |

WWOOOOOWWWW..Mike & Rich for 14.99? I know that's American, and really means something like 24 Canadian. But I would have WET myself! Ther's no way I'm ever going to see that CD here in Edmonton. Oh man. You didn't buy it? Wow, I would have got it for "Winner Takes All" and "Upright Kangaroo" alone! |

Plaid's "not for threes" is their most "advanced" album (that I've heard)... I must say it has some rather cute chirps and fun electronic organic sounds, and interesting composition. I heard (I think double figure) and it did sound very plain and simple so I didn't buy it. |

Last stoof I got was; Agoraphobic Nosebleed - Frozen corpse stuffed with dope (still in the post cuz hmv are a pain) The Hypnotist - House is mine (remix) on vinyl from 1993 Fear Factory - Digimortal (nothing compared to the two albums before that) Pop Will Eat Itself - Cure for sanity That was all the kinda odd stuff tho, I'm after a bunch of stuff from ZOD and Rephlex but need a new Vinyl case first. |

I actually dont like Snapcases earlier stuff, I had progression through unlearning (think thats the name) that was pretty recent and didnt like that too much. I like Designs for automations and the songs ive heard from the new End Transmission sounds even better. also the Mike and Rich I saw had a picture of them on the cover like playing a game from what I remember. |
