why have you chosen 90-91? |

what bullshit. don't confuse focussing developing texture of sound with "making things unlistenable". I hate it when people say things like that as if they are fact - you don't like it, it ends there. |

'focusing on' that should read. |

but if he would have put imo in front of it it would be o.k.? anything anyone expresses about music prefrences is just an opinion |

hmm, richard devine could become something...that is if he'd release stuff that he's playing live |

Granted, noise could be considered a texture of sound, but I personally think that music has to have some sort of melody or progression to be listenable - there's a fine threshold between noise and music, and some artists (I feel) haven't mastered that balance. Others throw in noise for the sake of doing it. |

"there's a fine threshold between noise and music" i suppose you should go into the plugin market if you've learnt how to immeadiatly tell the difference MATE. |

i can think of at least 3 people on this message board that could easily be the new aphex, not because they sound like him or mimic his music, but because they are so damn original and have created many a great track so far |

I find confield and draft 7.30 highly melodic and warm... I love them to hear again and again my favourite autechre era... and for me the most melodic |

hey joyrex (it's haendell66), i don't share at all your views on music , but, i underdstand it: what do you think of cylobotnia? i hated it at first, for all the reason you gave on confield or latest >[] 'too much complex bits', not enough warm melodies ; but after a while, i'm loving it too death for the same reasons (fucking complex, hidden melodies, sounds that explode your head)... i |

... don't think music should be one "thing", anyway, if you 're bored with elctronic music, get victor gama cd's on rphlex: it's brillant & fresh |

i think anybody could be the new afx in electronic music. we have and we will have tons of good musicians but Richard D. James remain the myth. anyway: i think Ovuca and Chris Clark could the be a good hope for the future. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agree about ovuca he has released some great stuff already under two important aliases |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Warp has done a good job signing Brothomstates and Chris Clarck. I expect much from them in the future. I'm also hoping for a new Sote-release |

BOGDAN BOGDAN BOGDAN BOGDAN!!!!!! ALL KNEEL BEFORE HIM!!!!! |

bogdan is cool because you at least feel that his music comes from the heart. if anyone has been as amazing as afx recently its got to be vsnares. i would have said s.pusher but his last album pales in comparison to past efforts. people say "making something unlistenable" as if its bad... anyone can make warm melodies, and warm synths blah blah boards of canada verypleasant andrural but not very exciting... which leads on to my point that smojphace kicks ass. so maybe its not the most original blast of white noise ever but it makes a fucking change from melody. as well as vsnares. winter... was far more invigorating and incredible than fucking geogaddi. |

Yes, I Chris Clark has places to go. But you're all forgetting someone (besides qrter, whose schoolreis is rocking MY ASS RIGHT NOW) and their name is... Ulrich Schnauss. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

And yes, I second that Bogdan vote. |

Cylobotnia is a mixed bag... I haven't had a proper listen yet, but from what I heard of the samples it seems they wanted to try out a bit of everything. No track really stands out for me yet, but then again, they're just samples. Chris Clark and Brothomstates both are very innovative and are very good at marrying chaos and melody together well. The Victor Gama stuff is not new (rephlex is re-releasing it), but I agree it's nice and innovative. |

I'M THE NEW APHEX! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
who was the new Elvis Presley? who were the new Beatles? we will never have another Aphex Twin in electronica I suppose. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean by "a new aphex"? someone whose music sounds like aphex's music? or someone who steps into new uncharted musical teritories, people with their own style? if we're talking about the second kind (which i hope we are), then we need not worry - there will always be such. and if you don't think there's anyone as creative and innovative you'd like to hear then you may be the one. just get to work. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hell, I don't even really like Aphex Twin... a couple albums are good... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Woofy has a good point; there probably will never be another 'aphex' because the scene has changed, and events like the ones that rose Richard to his stature now won't ever probably happen again. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Every generation says that...but there will always be another underground pioneer who attains popular notoriety. |

|
|
yes, and his name is jean michael jarre. whoops, thought it was 1977. in that case, nope, electronic music is dead. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its not, but i hope its me. that would be so neeto. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i love confield but what the heck is warm or melodic about it? and no i'm not one of those people who say there're no melodies or it's all noise; i hear subtle melodic motifs, but melody isn't the point of this album or even largely featured like on previous albums. chris clark is too much of an aphex imitator to truly be "the next aphex" unless that's what you consider the requirements of that to be. he's cool but not very original. ovuca is cool too but just not in the same league of talent or creativity. he's far more than just "adequate" but i don't see him changing the game like some of those warp cats did. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chris clark is nowhere near aphex, his music is just way too predictable, not much imagination, he's sticking to forms way too much, and it is quite boring and cheesy...yeah, im not his biggest fan |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i find that chris clark as an own style, good rhythms and melodies. obviously he will not be the new aphex twin but he could be a very good electronic musician for the future |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ovuca/Astrobotnia is one of my new fav's and he's got one thing in common with afx; about, i don't know, 50%, or more, of his stuff is total crap but the rest is brilliant. Guess you know what i'm talking about, i don't know, maybe it's just me. |
||||||||

I'd have said Clarence Park was a bit too Aphex in style, but I think with Ceramics and Empty he has developed his own style. Particularly with Empty, that shit it really good and sounds nothing like Aphex's work. Personally I think he is the current best of the newer crop of electronic artists. |
