But I am curios how did you find this board? A search on
Star Wars isnt likely to bring it up!!!

You hate electronic music! Oh my fucking God!

But I can see why you'd post here anyway... every other post
is about the trials and tribulations of everyday life, not
just IDM and whatnot...

You know, if you search in google for Aphex Twin, this site
is the second site returned... that's how I found it, it
used to be the first...

Jedi Chris: Have you listened to Boards of Canada? Their
music is soothing, and gorgeous man... check it out if you
haven't... some suggestions are An Eagle in Your Mind,
Roygbiv, Music is Math, Julie and Candy, The Beach at
Redpoint, Amo Bishop Roden, and A Beautiful Place Out in the
Country... :)

Jedi Chris: No offense man, but I don't know what you are
doing here. The chat here circulates around (and more often
than should strays from) the topic of electronic music. But
even when it strays, its usually the ideas, stories, &
values of people who are into electronic music,
particularly Aphex Twin's (if you don't like his in
particular that is understandable, this is a hub for all
sorts of music). I don't know how many people there are
like you on this board, and this is probably the meanest
thing I've ever said to anyone on this board, but it is
worse off for having them.

If there's a few things you find tolerable, maybe (as
funkmaster admirably attempts), but if you have been exposed
to and genuinely don't like or have interest in electronic
music, I don't think you should be here.

guys, don't you see why he's doing this? he's trying to turn
this community to a Star Wars message board. Look how he
decived us all, it's all part of his masterplan!. Do you
know how many users were tricked into getting a specialised
glowing lightsaber in their avatars, made & given to us by
Jedi Chris himself!?

Jedi Chris is the ANTIKRIST!!

Xanatos: You said "No offense" - well it read as offense!
And yes I do think it is the meanest thing you've ever said
to anyone here, but you are entitled to think what you want
to think!
*crosses Xanatos off Xmas greeting list* ;)

Corn_mouth: I don't think there is anything you can say, but
you can buy some points off me if you want! ;)

AlbertoBalsalm: Damn you, you've rumbled my plans! ;)

Raimons: I'll let you know.

Deathsmith: You are so right! Hehehe! Enjoy your 10 day
break!

Is everyone else here as bored as me?
If I had a life, I'd never have got as far as message 68.

Is anyone having a party tonight? Only it has to be near me
because I've only got £5 of petrol.

it is somewhat strange that someone that isnt into aphex
would come here. Iv recently gotten in aphex and love the
stuff. jedichris if u enjoy it hear no worries. take it easy
on him guys. hehe

Thanks! There are a few here that like to discriminate, you
know - that fact that I'm 'different' when it comes to what
I think of electronic music, but thats up to them...you'll
learn this for yourself when you get to know some of them. I
just ignore them. I was shown this site by a friend first
when I hadn't even heard of Aphex, and was then leant some
cds. Thinking back on it, maybe I shouldn't have used the
word 'hate' in this topic.....its just that his music isn't
for me!

i dont mind that you dont like aphex. in fact i dont claim
to like all electroni music. Autechre is very difficult to
listen to for an example.

That's true, its just that this community sometimes needs
more music discussion and less food-fight threads, I don't
know how Jedi Chris would be able to contribute to the
former, and as descriminatory as it may be, like I said
above, I usually come here to hear other thoughts by people
who enjoy electronic/idm/aphex, even if the thread isn't
specifically about it. I'm just glad noone else responded
"I'm also just here to talk", because if so they might as
well be in an AOL chat room, or talking to people in real
life (there's lots of them, just so very few that like
electronica).

I like Jedi Chris... he seems like a nice enough guy
(although, and bit meaner recently :) ), and yes, he did set
me up with this sweet lightsabre pic, so I can't complain...
We can't force him to love electronic music, and he doesn't
go spamming about other stuff, so he's a good guy in my
books...

suggestions like that.....

I have actually....I've got a copy of 'Music has the right
to Children'. I have to be honest and say, its quite
good....I've listened to it a few times. I prefer BOC to
Aphex.

(as to the Xmas card....Jedi Chris never forgets his

Chris...have a listen to this .....

*Hands over a copy of Kraftwerk's Computerworld*

This album got me into electronic music, and I also am
interested in Computers like yourself.

If ya dont like it, or electronic music in general after
that, I give up! I aint gonna tell ya what you can and can't
like :-/

It is kinda funny that you've got over 4000+ points on this

I have over 2,000 points at the N'sync messageboard :)

I don't really care if Jedi Chris likes electronic music or
not. I think Xanatos has a point, although it is rare if
ever that Jedi Chris post's about music.

I'm not surprised about Jedi Chris disliking most electronic
music, he has mentioned it before.

If Jedi Chris was just posting "electronic music sucks"
"your all idiots for liking Aphex etc" then kick him off!
But he doesnt. I've enjoyed a lot of his post's and think
the messageboard IS better for having him. Aphex Twin is
music that is so very varied. And just like the music the
messageboard is like that too! People that don't even really
like the music are here.

And ultimately that's a huge compliment to this site. He
doesn't really like the music but the intelligent
conversation, humour and excellent people keep him here.
