i had the most brilliant high listening to theme of sudden roundabout, i could hallucinate the visual aspect of the sounds, i could fly into the chaotic programming which isnt random in the LEAST if you have a smart enough mind to follow it, and think "WOW" when you reach a part where like a few layers of programming overlap in unison and then go off again, its like almost parralell lines, but theres a curve and after a long time, the two lines meet up and go through one another, isnt that something truely spectacle? i think so, and ive had this epiphany of utter astoundment and understanding while listening to confield and draft (only those two albums)
whoa what did i just say..

i could also go on and on about drukqs, about how much mood and emotion it builds up in me, and how catchy and evil some of the songs are, but theres nothing complex to comment on, well there are complexities, but after youve heard draft, the word complexity reaches a new meaning

Well you know what? I like to ENJOY music, I don't need it to be without dissonance or unexpected progressions, but I don't need it to be different or NEW just for the sake of it. It's pathetic that you ask for that from music. Great music can be simple. Listen to Erik Satie's music. This was written a century ago.

hey man, i chill out listening to envane and garbage ep allot, im a big fan of the beautiful simple stuff.
but for you to dismiss complex music having the ability to be ENJOYABLE, then your mind is feeble, and talking to you might lower my IQ..

I can't believe your arrogance! You seem to enjoy music that you find different, new, challenging, complex. I enjoy mainly music that is beautiful, simple, timeless, and that I can personally relate to. Saying that though, I don't advocate lyrics in music.
Anyway, this could never make me less intelligent than you. Apart from the creator's self expression, music is about uses and gratifications. We each ask for something different from music, and that's that.

~1 pm BST. But I was going to leave it at that. It's annoying that you somehow think you're more intelligent than me over something as trivial as a 'which album is better' argument, the whole thing is about taste and opinion anyway so it doesn't matter. I say each to their own, enjoy autechre, but don't encourage musical elitism by denouncing my opinions etc. This messageboard is hostile enough as it is

it would be a draw for me, drukqs has more tracks and therefore takes me longer to digest as a whole, whereas draft, i want to listen to it longer, and study each track. drukqs is sweet, then nasty, then sleepy (good sleepy), and draft is closed in, then vacuous, then strange (good strange).
something i do notice is this: i can put drukqs on when i am with other people, not into electronic music, and they will get in to some of the tracks, BUT i cannot put draft on, they will not get in to it. i have to be by myself to get the full experience.

It can be, but it rarely is. But I suppose if you were to say that a song on draft meets all of those criteria, it'd still be down to taste for what you would call beautiful. Do you think a musician should strive for perfection like that?

well, i mean... look at ultravisitor.
to me, that fits all criteria. it is complex and challenging at times, and at others it is quite simple and innocent. i think it has fun, i think it has depth of emotion, i think it is colorful at times, and sometimes also bleak and grey. to me, itll always be one of his best because he was able to pull it ALL together. i think draft is like that for me, too. it seems to me they were able to pull the confield thing and the lp5 thing together into one. its actually a very accessible album once you feel it out. i dont know, maybe thats just my experience... but id say give them a chance. i wrote them off, but found somethign had me popping gantz in even thoguh i hated it. it intrigued me. now i totally and completely adore it. very satisfying.

Who cares? They're both good.
And also: I vote Draft 7.30! The way all the sounds flow seperatley from each other and how they relate to one another.... this record is jazz, man. I love it.

Favourite from Drukqs: Mt. St. Michaels St. McDonalds Mount or whatever. Maybe Ziggomatic v17. The climax that both these songs build to has already been praised enough by both myself and other members, so I shan't both.
Favourite from Draft 7.30: Theme from Sudden Roundabout is just incredible. The way the melody slinks in, the fat squelchy beats, the sound that is in the last few seconds is absolutely indescribable, yet I feel like I hear it every day. The track is so alien yet so human at the same time. Amazing.

if you really want to compare Drukqs with another album I think Drukqs vs Clarence Park would be more suitable

Well that's exactly what I enjoy in Draft 7.30. Personal taste.

DRAFT 7.30
And my selection is just a personal preference, not a vote for a competition winner.

There should be a Drukqs vs Confield poll, because they're of the same era, and Confield is better than Draft.
Wait, no there shouldn't... you can't compare two different things, that's ridiculous!
