They're good. It's art. I like art. Art's good. Good is good. |

I've heard this "good is good" theory before. interesting idea. |

good=ae=good how do you like this? |

It involves not whining about good music which is clearly good. Think you're ready for it? If so, good. |

lee - the % are just for fun, dont take them seriously as its obviously impossible to measure such an abstract process accurately. I agree, AE is 100% (% for lee only) artists, no matter what they do. And I like them for that alone, especially when compared to all the fucking trash on tv/radio. But I really see them more as audio atmosphere engineers when it comes to releases like Confield, which btw, most of the songs on that album start out great, but then trickle into this patternless mess while reusing the same sounds over and over with no way to follow along, and this is somehow supposed to keep me interested, but it doesn't. Its almost like they ran out of ideas, and since they dont really understand music theory (I believe they have admitted it too in an interview I read), the song really doesn't go anywhere despite the fact that the first 3 minutes of it were amazing. yeah. |

unless you are totally alien to music, some music can evoke the same emotion from the listener. now i see your point and music is subjective, and is always up to the listener, but their are certain scales and sounds that can evoke the same emotion from an audience, say at an opera or something. the composer will put a piece in at certain time, to evoke an emotion. |

if say, someone would cut you up, you'd probably not be too pleased, while qrter in the same situation could actually enjoy it. (it's got nothing to do with topic, i just thought you'd be interested to know). |

You completely misinterpreted what I was saying. My entire point was that the terms 'music, noise, whatever' are what is bogging us down. I *disagree* with weatheredstoner's point about the songs on Confield becoming a mess, etc.. but I am defending his engineering ratios for the sole reason that they are useful in helping us talk in understandable terms about the recognizable elements in the music. I am not arguing what is and isn't music.. that gets us nowhere. You kind of put words in my mouth. Not only did I NOT say that Autechre was 'non-music,' Autechre are indeed my favorite in the entire genre. I have long been an advocate that Ae and IDM in general are equally legitimate forms of musical and artistic expression. I am not in the '1800's' as you put it, my entire point was that Autechre are problematic to people because they do not have the strict beat/melody rift that most pop music or even techno has. As a result, they are a bit of an anomaly in many music circles because people do not know how to talk about it. You may be in the next millenium of music theory or whatever but most casual listeners are not and find this music something significant to tackle. |

AFX is good. But his music is nothing on Ae. Nothing at all. AFX pales, sharply, in comparison. But that is just an opinion, fact. |
