I got Big Loada and Hard Normal Daddy but I am still quite dissapointed, they are both good records nut not very very special, some cool tracks some good tracks, some nice riffs, some good programming here and there, sometimes a good melody but as a whole quite silly albums... In comparassion with afx and ae. Do you still think I could like maybe Go Plastic, Music has rotted one note, feed me wired things or Do You Know Squarepusher? I really would appriciate some advice here! oh and by the way, how about µ-zig and Bodgan, are they very much the same? |

Music Is Rotted One Note and Go Plastic are both very different, between them and between the other >[] out there. in fact, Music Is Rotted One Note is even different than most idm out there, it is rather jazz. those are my favorite, the rotted note first. |

U-ziq are great melody makers.Quite ambient with some simple d'n'b.. Go plastic is quite a good album,but I'd say Do You Know SQ is his best work yet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It is not my intention to be picky or a pain in the arse, but U-ziq is one person. |
||||||||
|
|

the best for you is to listen to samples before, MrDwatt... (why can't you download? ' _ ') |
||||||||

not always, there used to be another guy. i remeber seeing them playing in london. the other guy was playing with a 303 whilst mike p played his keyboard |

Oh, ok. Thanks for the info, rchrddvdjms. ^^ |

The genious of Squarepusher creeps up on you after repeated listens, methinks. give it a lot of listens at ultra high volume and your sorted.... dance to the fucking thing, trip your neans off, have some smoke, ride a bike.......... climb some fucking stairs to the pusher and you´ll understand! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, you are different most I´ve heard think it´s crap, but I once listened to it in the shop and i liked it! btw what is on his live set? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, that last one, was for DYKSP - yeah yeah, he is sometimes relly cool, but silly, the things ivé heard is just dnb with ultra varied rythm and that is nice or a odd form off jazz |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Go Plastic is all over the place, it doesn't roll along with a simple melody like most of his older work does, it jumps from this to that with no warning, it's a head screwer, but a good one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don´t listen to these "things i´ve heard" and fucking well LSITEN to his MUSIC untill you reach that point when you realise that he´s simply the daddy, end of story........ it speaks for itself...... and the alive in Japan CD is the most energy you´ll hear on a contemporary live electronica CD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Go Plastic is pretty good. Some tracks are just noise as far as I'm concerned. I've heard a few tracks from Feed Me Weird Things, and I was totally sweapt away. Is this album as a whole a good buy? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, DYKSP is worth buying for the live cd alone |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmm, people are more pro-Go Plastic than I thought they were. I, for one, love it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Go plastic is the only squarepusher worth owning(its incredible too but the rest is too plain, except music is rotted... which i havent heard), dyks is alright for a little bit but gets old, dont get it. its not worth getting anything by mu-ziq either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm going to go with KEYF's praise and get DYKS. It's top of my albums to get list. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry to say I agree with Machine... The great SP album is Go plastic. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The ONLY great... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only got "go plastic" for reference, but it all sounds like 1997 aphex without the great melodies, I only like "my red hot car", right until he starts screwing with the beat to much. |
||||||||

Music Is rotted one note |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I?ve got Feed me weird things and Port rhumbus ep... Some of the tracks are great. Then I got Vic acid - and what a disappointment - haven?t bothered with SQP since then... |
||||||||
|
|

I think Do You Know, Big Loada, Go Plastic are all great Squarepusher CDs. Budakhan Mindphone was a little bit boring to me but maybe that is more for you if you don't like him being mental. Music Is Rotted One Note was quite interesting and grew on me a lot... Personally I doubt he can go wrong to my ears, it seems like he just makes all other music sound shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
personally, i've never ever been able to get into squarepusher. i kinda liked "do you know..." but i just dont know.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
music is rotted one note is genius. Burning tree is pretty damn tasty as well.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
squarepusher is the fucking daddy.. makes all the diff'rent styles of drumnbass.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I told you if you are an Ae fan go for Go Plastic..all the extreme warped bit crushing and grainulizing on abstract rhythms is on there..and it is very different from the rest... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not worth getting anything by u-ziq?? don't give out that kind of damaging "advice" to people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tango n' Vectif not worth getting? Surely you jest? :\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Squarepusher: Definitely good. I really don't have a problem with him. My favorites are "Go Plastic" and "Hard Normal Daddy", throw in the "Budakhan Mindphone" EP for good measure and you got yourself a weekend. ;) Bodgan: "Samurai Math Beats" and "Bombs Over Ibiza" are must haves. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Must warn you "Samurai Math Beats" can get pretty silly sometimes. I highly recommend µ-ziq's "Lunatic Harness" as I'm sure other would recommend this release too. Tango 'n Vectif has some good tracks, but remember that they are very old and if you are a huge music engineering freak who enjoys stuff like Vsnares programming more than Aphex melodies then you will be dissapointed. Music is a rotted one note, isn't IDM at all. Its more like a tribute to Miles Davis. Good if you like abstract jazz and stuff like that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Lunatic Harness is great, although "wannabe" is pretty damn creepy... Royal Astronomy is very good as well... if i'm not mistaken, U-ziq collaborated with some orchestra on that album |
||||||||

He's too technical and not ''fun'' enough, I dunno... too dry... he's awesome and almost without peer with DA SKILLZ, but he doesn't have IT. IT being that intangible that only true Champions have. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was talkin' about Squarepusher, by the way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't like sp so much either. µ-ziq however is really good (damn cdon.com!! why can't they send me my idms? why? why? why can't i order from decent places?! i'm going to amnesty with this soon) |
||||||||

Squarepusher is a a brilliant musician. i hate seeing people talk negative shit about one of the two masters of IDM. even if it's your opinion it's wrong. you know the phrase "Opinions are like asses, everyone's got one" hehe. well it's plain dumb calling a work of pure genius "silly". no-one can make the music he can, well not as good. Ophecks: you're calling squarepusher too technical when you listen to Æ?? their music is purely technical (except mayve for their early albums which are nice) with little or no emotion at all. you don't think [] doesn't have DA SKILLZ?? he fucking owns the IDM scene with afx. |

i concur |

No no, I said he DID have ''the skillz'', probably more than anyone else in this genre. Certainly more than Aphex. It's more than skillz though... I just don't feel the magic with him, I dunno... his shtick is stale by now, DYKS went nowhere except ''musique concrete'' (vomits). Anstromm Feck was just turning the chaos up and do nothing with it. I don't get the sense of fun listening to him that I do to RDJ, or the sense of ''wow, this is far out'' like AE. I can pretty much predict what his next album will sound like, I mean seriously... I bet he's going to amp up the D and B or just fall back to the jazz influence. I pray to God he doesn't go in the DYKS direction. (except that first track... but even that sounds like Go Plastic). He IS a genious, he just doesn't get me interested like Aphex. I've got no clue what he's doing now, what his next one will sound like. Aphex always puts funny little subtle/not so subtle jokes in his work, keeps me on my toes. And yeah, AE is technical, but I totally hear emotion in it, personally. It makes me feel cold, their sounds just take me away. Never reusing the Amen Break or whatever, never depending on musical virtuosity. Nothing makes mental images in my head like AE tracks. |

jesus i think SP "has it", that magic, above everyone else, even RDJ. I think RDJ has the SP magic, mostly when he DJ´s. Its all about forward momentum, viceral energy, the idea of carrying you along to a point in space and completely flipping your entire energy package so that it now points to another place in time and space but keeps moving. As for "Angstromn Feck 4" . He does something with it LIVE. Its a case of Tom saying "i have this great fucking tune that is designed for live tweeking, because it is alive itself... i made it alive, i gave birth to it and it breaths." Listen to his two live rendering s of this, the Ausie mp3 that floated aropund last year and the CD live version, they are amazing, they are organic and are extgremly different fro each other and capture a true artistic genious as he works. Thats why he is the Daddy. RDJ keeps you interested w with little funny subtle jokes and noises, SP does this so fast, they enter your subconciousness.... he never leaves you settled on one idea, RDJ does a little bit, untill he DJ´s then he becomes more like tom - sorry. |

I have to try Go Plastic but the albums I´v got just dosen´t hit me, only some nice places or nice riffs, but it´s not working for me like ae and afx. For me sp has a lack of deep emotion where I think ae and afx dosen´t. Sp is naive in a sense, but still not bad at all... |
||||||||

I only got "go plastic" for reference, but it all sounds like 1997 aphex stuff without the great melodies. I only like "my red hot car", right until he starts doing the "oh look I'm so damn technical with the drumprogramming" bullshit with which he continues on the rest of the album. Genius my ass, might as well start calling some of them japanese noise "artist" geniuses. Straight bullshit y'all. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i think the "puzzlework" in go plastic, destroying and reconstructing the song, is fucking incredible, and different from any rdj song... |
