 | 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...
