amazon.com user review of RDJ album
"His music could be criticised for being too simple to create, my friends comment being "An 8 year old could write this," but that would be completely beside the point, an 8 year old didn't write it, it was created by an intelligent and rhythmically conscious musician. This goes to show that music doesn't necessarily have to be infinately over-written or complicated to produce the mood or tension that was strived for in the first place."
man, this is dumb. calling this album "simple" is an freakin' insult! If Richard D James album is not complicated, then please PLEASE tell ME, what is COMPLICATED music? I could understand if these ignorant friends of his think techno/trance/drum&bass is simple and easy to make (which it ISN'T), but i cannot understand how they can think that about the RDJ album, which is full of inventiveness and complexity ...jeez

Yeah, I agree with you man. My feeling is whoever thinks of it as simple just doesn't understand anything about making music, or isn't into it enough to really notice all the subtlety and shit.

Yep, even generic die-cast DnB is pretty hard to do...
