Well to change the subject a bit here to be more music
oriented and not so hurting, such a tragedy. heh. anyways,

AFX - new or old?
BOC - new or old?
AE - new or old?
UZIQ - new or old?
SQUAREPUSHER - new or old?

AFX - Old
BOC - Newer
AE - Old
UZIQ - Old
SQUAREPUSHER - Old

Aslo discuss... what sort of sound would you like to hear
from any one of these artists, personally id like to see AE
do some ambient work, or even BOC hit that up

"music"

AFX - new!!! - experimental (ambientish with beats...)
BOC -old - not sure, they've always been doing the same
thing so it would be best if they keep doing that
AE - new - i'd like to see them do a dance album
UZIQ - new - ambient
SQUAREPUSHER - new - gabba

Good topic... i think its close to being the opposite of
your prefferences.

Afx: New, newer. If we figure old is like "classics" or "Saw
1" i say new. Even windowlicker and Drukqs.

Squarepusher: New

BoC: Old

i love the way BOC has that old feel to it tho. like the
simple kiddy analog tape feeds of synth loops. its their
beats that always sound new and up to date i think.
AFX - new
BOC - a bit of both
Squarepusher - old
havent heard much from AE or UZIQ

well, the question was "what sort of sound would you like to
hear
from any one of these artists"

so yeah, i'd like to hear pusher do a gabba release :)

FlyAgaric: so ill be nice its ok really. im nice enough,
just not when there is some sort of cheesy ass argument or
something.

old skool is better AFX.. yes! well opinions I guess.

Squarepusher doing gabba would be crazy! id love to hear
that. Autechre doing some dance shit would be a little
insane!

I dunno maybe to see Uziq to do some more darker stuff, less
busy.... more simple, I dunno id also love to see boc keep
doin their own thing.. heh.

sp should pick up the bass again and do more jazzy stuff, by
the sound of that sample wav hes doing just that, which is
cool :)

have to be BOC cause I really just like all their stuff
about equal.

AFX - newish (not including Smojphace)
BOC - old
AE - new
UZIQ - old (well, Astronomy/Harness era)
SQUAREPUSHER - newish

And for guys like Plaid and Amon Tobin, it would be
''newish''... in other words, latest works have disapointed
me, but they were great up 'till 2001, which is... newish.

In fact, very rarely do I like post-2001 albums as much... a
decline in quality since then in my mind.

7\ - hmm... everything!! (well, i didn't like the very
latest, Smojphace, but i don't care it's just one ep and
that doesn't mean he's gone to shit now to me... : )

BoC - ah, screw you fucking hell!! they're all the fucking
same and i don't fucking care for them : P
*weee, gratuitous silly provocation : )*

Ae - my favourite are Amber, AeP and Confield... so i'd say
rather old... but i love Confield though!! ' _' (haven't
heard the latest, Draft 7.30...)
i'm not totally sure i like Incunabula as much as Amber,
i've just heard Autriche which was good but not as Amber...
OK - let's say i like them in sinusoidal waves from ok to
very good and back and loop! =D

µ-ziq - i've only heard very few by him, and what i've
heard didn't grab my attention much anyway, so... N/A...
sorry

>[] - maybe newer, except the latest, DYKS... and i think
the next one will probably be one mixed bag... i don't
know... Hard Normal Daddy was great, but i loved even more
Music Is Rotted One Note and Go Plastic... very early,
Burningn'n Tree, was good too... Big Loada was quite
good.... though maybe MIRON and GP are less representative
of Squarepusher's sound... or not... does that mean
anything??!!? what? it was only one year between HND and
MIRON °_° err, i'd say i like most of it so far. maybe,
middle period?

i've been of a great help and very much clear i know. ^^

(by the way i do not absolutely positively hate boards of
canada (proof is i still keep my geogaddi limited edition, i
just do not listen to it anymore...) i just like bashing
them : ))

now that i consider what i've written i think it's good!
there is good in the good old times and there is good in the
future, too!!

like in Junktion (if i remember)'s Alexander Graham Bell
quote... 'when a door closes, another one opens'...
