its 02:45 in the morning, and im blasting "Nobody Get's out Alive" - Alec Empire just thought i would share that... who else loves Alec empire?? have you been to any of hes sets? is anyone here lucky enough to have seen him when he was with atari teenage riot??!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've been meaning to at least give it a chance... i didn't really like ATR at all... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No? hmmm yeah not everyone can take on to them, there are a few tracks that anyone can not dislike, but there Noise/Digital hardcore does not grab everyone. have you listend to Alec empire solo stuff??, your most probley like that. |

I saw ATR live once. it was really fucking loud. like really loud. it was a good show as i remember it. the opener was EQ8R which is a similar digital hardcore band but not as good. |

ahhh man thats quality, i have both there live albums at brixton and in philidelphia, i would have loved to see them, shame there now non-existent... but since they split up Alec's been wikid. |

To be honest I find it faux hardcore. He's knocking 40 and shouting teenage angst crap like Trent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha. even old guys can have angst. but i agree it should be about old guy stuff like hair fallin out and corvette got a scratch. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
totally. If there was a middle aged grey haired/comb over track I'd be on it. |

half the songs on the last nine inch nails album are about prostate exams. that's legit. |
||||||||

I only gave it one listen. Was I wrong? I worry about my prostrate, don't mention it! |

he does not know what hes talking about anyway its hardly "teenage angst" i think your referring to ATR when they were all around that age anyway and stood up against neo-nazis and a whole lot of things that were happening in berlin at the time, it was also when that shitty hard house bollocks came about in germany, and they sure told those lot to fuck off, they created somthing new and origional, obviously dated now but there still legends. Present Alec empire, hes music is still rebelious and political, but it is hardly "teenage angst" as you put it, but then again you would think that with "JivverDicker" as your display name. |

Alec Empire was in his thirties when he did ATR for the first time. Do you know his album 3 months previous to ATR? It was a daft hip hop jazz thing that he'd love to imagine never happend. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he was born in 72 ATR formed in 92, so he was 20. 30's when they came to an end when there music had developed anyway, away from punky teenage angst shouting, and he sampled alot of 60's and 70's funk while early dj'ing which was acctuly very good, SAMPLED, you made that up about a hip hop album release, there were no releases before ATR, there was a solo release in early ATR years "Generation Star Wars", and obviously ATR releases. |

Don't be a daft . The boat has left. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in all seriousness, no, that album is horrible. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yes, hyper modern jazz, hardly hip hop. and thats not prior to ATR thankyou. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Phew and phew! All I can think about at the moment is my girlfriend and the new little people that are going to be here in a few months. Two un identical little people are here soon! It's exciting + I'm shitting it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree, hardly hip hop, a pretty lame effort. I wonder why he felt he needed to do that as ATR was SOO real. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You are glad you've forced me to talk shit? why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

||||||||
|

|
|

Remain calm lad, well basically after i had replied with this: "ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yes, hyper modern jazz, hardly hip hop. and thats not prior to ATR thankyou." you then replied with this: "Phew and phew! All I can think about at the moment is my girlfriend and the new little people that are going to be here in a few months. Two un identical little people are here soon! It's exciting + I'm shitting it!" as you could not answer me |

alec empire is like the jello biafra of our days. ans he is also amazing doing ambient music(the iceland sessions) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have a few of his tracks - no albums though. Is most of his stuff similar to ATR ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some elements of ATR, mostley no though, hardly noise, more in rythum Drum N' Bass/electro. some of hes tracks are very thrashy and metal sounding. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Seeing as I don't like 90%+ of his output, 2 of his tracks are awesome; Addicted to You and The Ride. The Ride is fucking brilliant and one of the few tracks where he really belts out his rage without it sounding contrived. |
