"starless and bible black" and "Elektrik". they've always sounded great when improvising/live. |

I've done it for almost 2 weeks, although admittedly, it's only 6 years or so that I've been listening to this sort of music really regularly. The main thing I found was that whilst I certainly don't think all rock/indie is bad, even the really great stuff isn't as good as the best IDM. I also found I was writing acid lines for about 1/2 an hour a day, using the 303 notes & USAD notation, in a notebook. So I suppose that's cheating as I'm "listening in my head". Incidentally, I hope this doesn't mean a campfire headphase type shift towards "real instruments" for our very own IDM-star dog_belch? |

me and dog_belch have already written 37 tunes with acoustic guitars and violins under the new, collaborative guise "Randy's Quickstop". |

"cirkus" - no :) i can't remember what it is, a live old tracks compilation ? ;] i have tried a zillion times to get into the KC 80s but i just can't get to like those albums. it's hard to choose one fav cause apart from that 80s period i love all their stuff. the poetic/jazz-rock 70s, the 90s with their "double-trio" Vrooom and Thrak, live ProjeKcts [amazing set of live improvisations]...and a very good come back with "the power to believe". it's also Fripp's guitar, he's my fav guitarist, i keep discovering his past collabs and guest appearances [ FSOL etc. ]. He's great. as for the new stuff....last week Fripp had a recording session with Belew....it seems they're the only left members of the previous KC incarnation - as for now. Fripp wrote something about "new exciting music" in his diary. |

for me it's really hard to compare sometimes. sure i prefer electronic music [ and enjoy those little bits of electronic drums in king crimson AD 2003 ] . but there are some non-electronic albums which will always be classic and pwn electronic ones for me. sometimes electronic music lacks the spontaneous energy that a live guitar band can produce. as for making electronic music, quite the same : i sometimes miss playing/being in a band. playing together with people feels great, doesn't it. |

The electronic drums in the first track of Elektrik fit in really well, true. |
