not really, I tend to fight off the download-induced schizophrenia by picking out what I want to hear, not just downloading everything that seems faintly interesting. I still slip from time to time, ofcourse, fall for the ol' mp3-zapping. Philip Glass smells of old wee. |

the Kronos Quartet smells of pine, however. |

Philip Glass probably smells like a lot of things. Depends when you catch him. |

God no. And you're dissapointed? ...I find it hard to get around to watching tv shows and films Ive dl'ed than music. Too many distracting things on my computer to turn it all off and watch something. |

neo-classical, my friend. still, some of his stuff is pretty engaging, surprisingly so, from the -Qatsi soundtracks to Glassworks. |

isn't that term reserved for the likes of stravinsky..? |

I'd say more neo-classical than classical-classical - but genres are tricky business as always. I personally don't like the term "classical" to be used for works produced after the 19th century, but that's just me. Glass too is hard to categorize, especially in his later works... "Minimalism" is supposedly a break from the old scene(s), but genealogies can be drawn. For example, his early influences include Aaron Copland and Darius Milhaud (under whom Glass studied), who were students of Nadia Boulanger, who in turn studied Stravinsky, Prokofjiev and others. (wikipedia is a good help, don't think I know this stuff off hand!) It all goes in circles, see, like glass's melodies... |

Glass is hopeless and -qatsi soundtracks are the proof of that. |
