may sound a bit silly but jimi was aphex of 60's and 70's! |
||||||||

yeeesss... i will give it to you. ok. |

hey, seriously..don't remember what's your stand on hendrix. being a guitar master, im sure you've got an opinion :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, it's one of those things... i respect his experimentalism and style. he did some interesting stuff, but that was a period when a whole lot of musicians were experimenting and doing lots of crazy psychedelic stuff. i used to be into that music when i was 14, but i got sick of it... the classic songs are dated and it kind of grates on me to hear purple haze or whatever. i wouldn't call myself a fan. |

cool. the way i see it is there's more to his music when you pay attention..you can easily miss some of greatness if you don't put much attention into it. same as aphex, both create music in sort of pop form but there's more to it. im not questioning your ability to listen to something here as im pretty sure you know what to listen to in particular music, so it must be you heard some amazing stuff from that period :) personally one of my favourite experimentalists from that time is asmus tietchens, got to know him recently with all those reissues of his work and most of it is amazing, although completly different to hendrix.. |

both have their own merits |

I really don't know how to compare Aphex and Jimi. Maybe the underground stardom is the one thing that is similar. The problem is, I don't think Jimi was any good in composition or in melodymaking. His biggest strenght to me is the extent to which he felt one with his instrument. However, any good jazz improviser is better in this field. Feel free do disagree |

ok, i've got to give asmus tietchens a listen. the sixties were a fantastic time for experimental music and the avant-garde side of art in general. |

one time i tried to steal a jimi poster in a club (smuget), the glass frame broke and i got caught. i almost got beaten up by a bunch of door men. jimi rocks! |

if you're up for it illegaly, you know where to look :) |

from a musical standpoint, jazz improvisation is very different from what jimi hendrix did, so even on a superficial level, i'd say it would be wrong to compare the two. |
||||||||

they both had/have great ear for combining sounds/parts that doesn't seem to fit together, they both 'hide' experimentalism into pop form songs + lots of other details that are common to lots of musicians. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i disagree with you and im not even saying why but i will say that i enjoy hendrix |

jimi didnt invent the fuzz face octavia univibe or crybaby wah but his style was arguably fluider than richards allowing him to get a greater range of use of those innovations hes more like sp. |
||||||||
|

|
|
haha... keith richards? he's the most overrated shit guitarist ever. steve jones was better at what richards did than richards was. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
he's got a nice attitude though. |

ne pozabiti podpisati. |

haha "nie zapomnij sie podpisac" ? i respect his experimentalism and style. he did some interesting stuff, but that was a period when a whole lot of musicians were experimenting and doing lots of crazy psychedelic stuff. as far as i know his work so far - i could say the same about Robert Fripp, who's been a great inspiration and great collaborator to many artists. though his playing style and approach to music [making] is quite or even totally different from Jimi's. it's emotions vs calculation thing. |

I think they're some perfects songs crafted by Jimi: Bold as Love, Little Wing, Castles Made of sand, Stars that play with laughings sam's dice. I think his best strength was his composition. |

composition is what aphex is very familiar with as well :) |
||||||||
|

and drugs... I prefer the songs Jimi played alone with acoustic guitar. Some real blues... |
