Do you think that a lot of today's well known 'IDM' superstars would have been as productive? eg, Aphex Twin. It seems to me Richie spends all his time on the Internet, probably posting under a childish alias doing "lol lmao ass! ghey u suxor- RTD is a ghey faggot" type posts on message boards these days. Do you think we'd have the discog's we have now if the Internet had been around just like it is now, in 1993? Do you think most IDM superstars opf years past are big Internet nerds, who nowadays sit at home, smoke dope and crack and browse porno websites like pornotube or summat>? |

I see your point. I think a lot of aphex's music stems from not having anything better to do. |

I agree DirtyPriest. But glad he chose to be productive for a while anyway. |

I shudder to think how shit music would be if Aphex had churned out things like Smojphace in '93, instead of SAW1. Conversly, had he made Drukqs back then it would have been absolutely insane. |

that's sort of not my point though. I'm saying he wouldn't have put anything out if he had Internet to bum around on from 1993. I think that the Internet took off big time around 1997/1998, around the time RDJ started to get less productive and a bit meh. |

First thought: They should be banned from the net immediately! Bunch of lazy slackers! Second thought: But on the other hand, look at the productivity of BOC... |

RDJ had the Internet in 1988, that's how he invented the future. |

are you saying he is combo? |

what are you being serious? |

totally not where i thought you were going with this topic... just think of all the other implications if they had the internet now back in 93, or any technology for that matter. it's funny, over the holidays there was a movie on tv "jingle all the way" arnold schwarzenegger and phil hartman, released in 96, 10 years ago, and all through out the movie while arnie is searching for this toy for his son for christmas he keeps using payphones... LOL!!! payphones!!! now after that ipod/iphone thread even more possibilities of "what if" in this scenario! |

D'oh, you finally guessed... |

Wasn't the inner sleeve of "Artificial Intelligence II" released in, ooh lol etc 1994, full of bullshit harvested from some messageboard dedicated to LOL electronic music. The only thing mindblowing about this thread is that someone would come up with it over 10 years too late. |

Oh hello. I always remember you because of the twattish posts. They stick out like a sore boil on a cancerous legion. Make a thread about your fav scab on yr arm pit. |

That's not as witty or sincere as a dog_belch post. |
||||||||
|

You don't know what I'm talking about do you? You ignorant twat. |

yeah, the idm list if i remember correctly. these idm guys are geeks afterall. they have probably been playing with bbs' and other toys long before the net became popular. |
||||||||
|

and heaven forbid they actually have some self-control! *gasp* |

both writing electronic music and using the internet get really dull after a few years! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow, now that's a retort... dullard. |
||||||||
|

You really don't know what I'm talking about, do you? You prick. |

i wish the internet had been like this in 1993, with advertisements for emoticons screaming "HEY! HELLOOO!", spyware, bloated websites lacking in real information.. it'd have been great!!! seriously, i don't know what the fuck you're getting at |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if i had my way, all webpages would |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And for all its simplicity it still throws up dozens of errors in the scripting. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah, that's Carl's fault :) you get my jist though.. I wish it was back to the old days of white background, black text, and INFORMATION. that's why i like wikipedia.. it's like the web used to be.. start off learning about some music artist and end up reading about jesus. |
||||||||

Other than that though, I agree. Oh I don't actually, I hate the way web sites all look kind of the same, and the "better" designed they are, the more they form some homogenous style that only appeals to other web designers. It's like making all TV programmes the same. The web's a terrible medium. It's great at delivering stuff but.. horrible really to look at or have to fucking deal with. |
||||||||
|
|

|

True that. Maybe I came off a bit heavy-handed -- variety does (or even, would) make browsing more enjoyable... All i'm saying is, CONTENT OVER DESIGN |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I AGREE |

Back then we had fewer than 100 web pages to browse through on the entire webbernets, not to mention being confined to dial-up connexions. |
