I was wondering... what beats do people who are not 'into' beats enjoy? People who have either never gotten into complex beat wizardry or who never had any interest in it to start with. With a jungle and hip-hop orientated musical upbringing it's only right that I cherish good beats, but for you people who are less likely to scream 'Go on, give us a snare rush' and more likely to slam your fist on the table and demand a strong chord progression, what makes you tick? Just curious. |

well obviously, the strong chord progression makes them tick. the answer was in the question |

Hmmm, i just think that something that adds rather then subtracts from the music. I think with aphex and squarepusher that the beats are part of the melody. Where as Boc's beats my not be as complex they have the swing to give the music an extra weight. I guess it is the same with ambient stuff as well, if it compliments the track then anything goes. |

myself i am a sucker for a driving beat, if it builds slowly and gets louder as the track progresses, i am at a loss at how to decribe it with words the beats in tundra and tundra 4, how its starts off kind of low, and generally drives up and up also tilapia, how it just drives until that last part in the track where is everything just collapses a good driving beat, i am a such a sucker for it, the track could be shit, but if it has a drive, i like it. |

I hate beats and melody, I just want like a sense of immense pressure, like being deep beneath the ocean, and a bass of rumble like a whale with indigestion. |

Just take any sample and drop it a few octaves, then boost the bass and add some reverb and put the dry signal at about 75%. |

I like music that hasn't got beats in it, sometimes. It is Cool. |

usually i like the music as a whole, i don't "deconstruct" it to analyse it by beat, chords, voice etc... i can tell that snare rush abuse à la Venetian Snares is nothing but irritating to my ears, and that i like the percussion after the break in "Acid Police" by Boredoms, which goes like this: bom bom bom bom BAM bom bom bom bom bom bom bom BAM. somehow. |

I like tasty and funky grinding sex grooves. That snare rush type shit dissolves in your bloodstream before it can reach your ass. I have a couple of albums of just drumming by Bernard Purdie and Mike Clark - I could listen to that shit all day. Bernard Purdie played with James Brown and practically invented sex. Mike Clark played with Herbie Hancock. These guys play drum grooves so musical that adding music to it is almost a crime. |

i like a good beat, but its not really what interests me, so much as melody and rhythmic patterns within this, rather than a beat/drum based rhythmn. i don't know why but i can identify with a melody a lot more. |
