witbhoas and hccbu are great. |

if aphex don't release stuff cause he's loaded, perhaps one should consider robbing him? I mean that's what he wants and even expects from his true fans. DO IT! |

yes they areª! I group his releases into 4 diferent styles in my opinion: 1. songs about my cats, witboas and hccbu (the sweet melodic stuff) 2. doll doll doll, find candance, a giant alien force (the obscure and more theme like things) 3. higgins, 2378094, chocolate wheelchair (the most funky) 4. making orange things, printf (and all the old stuff) horse & goat and nymphomatriarch I dont know where to place them |

I'd place horse and goat next to hccbu and witboas. nymphomatriarch? i really dunno, it stands alone I guess |

the horse and goat title track and find candace are good too. nympho-stuff is crap |

at least i think we all agree on this: venetian snares still produces reactions. (and in my opinion, too much... all threads about him are the same, half of "he's wank!" replies, half of "he's great!" replies - i hope people will finally get bored and stop these infertile discussions...) |

its true that there has been too much talk already... but this thread is kind of diferent I think... we are all really discussing from a musical point of view rather than just attacking the people with diferent opinion and really there are some nice posts here |

i'd love to hear someting different from vsnares eventually...so far everything i've heard sounded practically the same. as for afx and squarepusher - they're trying out many different things...exploring sounds and stuff. |

i like snares i like squarepusher i like aphex i don't like people that sit around attacking some guy thats making the music he wants to hear...which all 3 do. if you think all snares sounds the same you could say the same about squarepusher most def. and to some extent aphex. give him time he (snares) hasn't been producing as long as tom or dick. i'm sure with time and about 200 more releases (most of which i will like and blair at high volume in my car) we will see a different style(s) emerge. just be happy there are people making music for you to even debate. or else we'd have to listen to your shitty music some of you spam here all the time.... god help us all. |

the thing with vsnares is that he's so 5 years ago but using all the new tech. so it sounds new but old. you can hear all the latests bleepls and blops and drills and breaks... but esentially, he hasn't made something new. it's like he rewrites music from others. still sounds good. but not really interesting |

the interesting about venetian snares is that you never know what he's going to release, most of his albums have very different styles/techniques and none of them sound the same, that's for an artist very interesting |

Most of this chat is about their studio work. Which is fine of course. How about looking at their live so work? Aphex - Dj's a lot, recently with laptop technology and effects. Last time i saw him he played live. (Glade) He many different kinds of sets Jungle, Noise, Breakbeats, Ambient, Electro, Aphex-heavy. Tehy're all good and he crafts a world of his own that can me equally melodic and harsh and always braindancey Squarepusher: Took a brief spell from live bass playing at his gigs during his Go Plastic tour. More time to strecth out his music but he seems to be able to do this equally well while playing the bass, which he is master of. The flow of his gigs is very artistic and has a definite narative that is dictated by his eccentric energy. Its both spontaneous and very well though out and again... extremely dancey and hardcore with terrfic melodic moments. VSnare: Seems to mostly mix CD's live but with and energy that cannot be denired. His sets are full on breakcore rollercoaster rides and pretty relentless with little breather time. Fucking very enjoyable but less artistic than the other guys. More raw and less crafteed but i find pretty enjoyable. RDJ was dancing like a nutter at VSnare @ ATP last year. (he plays here next month... yes!) |

I don't hear much difference in snare's releases, and I'm starting to dislike saying such things. Cause he has control of his stuff and has probably worked hard. It must be tough putting your stuff out there for everyone to pick apart. And all because he just started releasing music doesn't mean he hasn't been making stuff at home since high school. |
