in the most literal sense. he constantly sounds like he's wanking himself. ta-TUM ta-TUM ta-TUM.. his music is so unbelieveably self-congratulatory. no thanks. i've been enjoying max richter's 'the blue notebooks' a lot lately, and i recommend it to anyone who likes glass but is tired of philip. |

I downloaded Max Richter's album out of vague interest, plus I was yet to check out any modern classical... I really like it, On The Nature Of Daylight is a wonderful piece. Of music. |

did you see when south park used philip glass in the non-denominational, non-offensive christmas play? |

happy happy happy everybody happy |

I would agree. a man who has built an entire career on one trick. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, absolutely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i have an orange record from him... the entire thing is one song (yeah, its a 12 inch record). the entire thing is just one simple loop. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he's become a lot more symphonic and a lot less minimalist over the years though. his current stuff is worlds apart from his seventies stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've only heard the track he did with Aphex Twin which is amazing, never heard any of his solo stuff but I always thought he was pretty highly regarded. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Richter is awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he is, at least by me. music in 12 parts is fantastic, you just need a little patience and a lot of time, it lasts 3.5 hours and rarely changes throughout |
||||||||

They made us listen to Einstein on the Beach in my music class last semester. Man, was that agonizing. He composed a great score for Koyaanisqatsi though. |
||||||||

Steve Reich blows Glass clean out of the water. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
einstein on the beach <3 if you l;ike music in 12 parts, check out basinski's disintegration loops... it's fucking lovely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Agreed. |
||||||||

we are all wankers |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
speak for yourself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He is though. I don't know who I dislike more, Phillip Glass, or the chin stroking wanks that think he is "Amazing". |
||||||||

|

|
|
What Reich should I download to get me started? Anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Music For 18 Musicians and Music For 6 Marimbas. Seeing reich performed live is about a million times better though. |

desert music is excelent, music for 18 musicians is better known i think. Both are excelent anyway, you can't go wrong. |

I love philip glass. Hes my favorite composer... he does have a lot of methods he uses over and over... but its just done so damn well. I love his melodies. There is some stuff that isnt as great, like any artist, but the works by him I love... I LOVE. And yeah, his later stuff is a lot different from his 70s stuff. (And reich is awesome too... but I prefer philip) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He's good, but I'm not a huge fan of him or anything. I find the opening theme to Hamburger Hill to be really really haunting... definitely my favorite Glass track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you think PG is a one trick pony, listen to Glassworks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
glass isnt that bad, his movie and film scores are great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey, the secret agent was on tonight. great score to that. his soundtracks are ace, yes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont even know what the big deal with phillip glass is, wow he makes some good music for films or whatever. you all most likely only know him because he collaborated with aphex, or something next. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love glass, though i don't like everything i've heard. glassworks is awesome, and so is einstein on the beach. and, i rarely stroke my chin (a lie). checking out some richter now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i listened to philip glass waaaaaay before i ever listened to any electronic music, or was aware of aphex, cos of a mate of mine who was really into him. that's just me though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he does great soundtracks for the errol morris films. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont even know what the big deal with Gwely Mernans is, wow aphex pretends to be tangerine dream for 5 minutes or whatever. next. everyone can make stupid coments. try saying something constructive. i dare you. i've only heard a few glass releases. i first came across after watching candyman a few years back, and loved the soundtrack. circles is an excelent release, probably my favourite glass work. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow... that's one of his earliest releases iirc. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gwely is great. So bassy. It's a bass feedback loop. Fucking wicked. So is gwarek. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tru dat |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gwarek is his worst track. ever. as for phillip glass, i enjoyed his contribution to the truman show score. the rest of his music is balls. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heard Songs From Liquid Days - that was a disappointment. I got intrigued by the umtza-umtza beginning of first or second track, but remaining music sux in this album. as for me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
einstein on da beach is totally hardcore its the 1st thing i heared by him and its the best ive heared so far |
