integrist i can't take it. if it's true, i'll burn my entire

There is about as much connection between Dismantling 5
Years and Nanou2 as there is between chalk and cheese.

then you don't have a good ear. i'm talking about melodies.

i mean really, you people know just as much about music as a
bsb fan. the people who have posted in this topic, anyway.
my love to everyone else.

jesus, what's up with this? just because people disagree
with you? so you only love the people who agree (or rather:
don't disagree) with you.. don't take it so personal man

btw i don't think i have the same musical knowledge as a bsb
fan, i play piano for about 13-14 yrs now, i think i can
hear differences between chords and melodies

i might be wrong of course, if you say so

get fucked. sampling, recontextualising, referencing: big
freakin deal. Hip-hop tracks take large chunks of other ppls
tracks all the time.. Jay-Z bites kraftwerk etc.. and they
don't always cut up the breaks!!!

And yes I have a good ear for melodies..

did you see there is a thread about this thread on the
Planet Mu phorum..?

and mr. Aaron Funk himself answered..?

his answer..

"I ripped the melody from Dance Like Your Selling Nails
from an Ennio Morricone record. Other than that I'm not sure
what this kid is trying to say...that I sampled these
melodies or I copied them or what. I can say I haven't done
that but anyone can believe whatever they like. I'm sure
that road from the ear to the mind takes many different
turns for everyone. I don't know why I bother even replying
to this. Why do I even bother releasing music anymore? I can
tell you I'm really sick of being even a passing thought in
the minds of people I really don't respect because this
'IDM' scene or whatever the fuck it is treats music like a
pissing contest. I don't want to be a part of that. I'm not
Star Trek and I'm not pandering to fanatical imbeciles that
are too gimped up to have ever kicked around a soccer ball.
Why is it so fucking important what I do? Why isn't it more
important what you do? I know I don't give a fuck what you
do, if your records were on amazon.com I wouldn't put them
in my shopping cart. Wanna know why? Cuz I don't give a fuck
about you.

Sorry I'll get back in my shrinkwrap now,

Aaron"


personally, I couldn't care less.

Thanks for posting that qrter. I agree 100% with snaresy,
all this pontificating is ridiculous!

music should not be analysed by the means that it was made
by - it should be analysed by the moods, tones, and emotions
it illustrates. it should be a thing for relaxation,
exciement, arousal, stimulation - not a book to sit down and
read. i think that if we were more focused on the emotions
we feel from music instead of the sounds we hear, there
would much more music lovers out there.

current so-called "punk" rock music does this all the
time..in fact... i don't know if they ever not do it..

i believe it's possible for two people to come up with
melodies almost exactly the same.. i mean there's only so
many notes and combinations, the real important part of
music comes from the feelings that go with the music.

no one seems to have mentioned: so what even if aaron funk
is "copying" a melody why is this a bad thing?
in my car once listening to dance... with my mate (who no
way has definitely not heard of vsnares) heard the song and
said "oh quality! its this song!" ...which made such a
change to all my mates saying: "turn this fucking racket
off"
so what if something is familiar it can still be original
and
have just as much artistic value as the thing it is
imitating.
analyse music in terms of the end not the means

Oh and secondly, why should someone’s opinion on a song be
less valid because they are not musically trained or play an
instrument?- they still have ears.

all i know is that in the time that we are living
electronic, musicians have been sampling and editing to
their likes, to create something original, I feel that
vnsares is merely looking to the ones who pioneered the idm
scene before he was big. all you really have to go on is
being inspired by others music. you must take some of that
knowledge with you when creating your own music wether it be
from sampling or using the same notes in a melody that may
have been used in a different song, etc etc

snares is genius. maybe sometimes he gets inspired by
listening to music made by other people.
