I can't believe you forgot The Orb... Ass... ;.) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I don't personally rate the Orb very highly at all. In fact i would say my they are shit. Sorry. |

you also didn't put biosphere |

why is tortoise on there? they've barely done any electronic stuff... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
perhaps because they're on warp... |
||||||||

aw no Skint records. i grew up on skint records! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
hmm, they're only distributed by warp in europe, their label is truly thrill jockey. also, i don't consider vincent gallo particularly electronic either... |
||||||||

All this nitpicking! You can just disregard all other artists anyway and assume the lion's share of votes is going to be divided among 5 artists. Although... make that 6, since I didn't expect PLAID to be ahead of Mike P! Weird seeing Radiohead up there, too... |

So do you think it was worth me making this poll? I find it fascinating to know the general concencus. I havent heard much Biosphere but ive been meaning to check them out. Thank You Ps would you ppl vote if i spent more time making one Definitive poll? |

tortoise has hardly done anything electronic? are you insane? have you heard 'djed'? |
||||||||
|
|

i have all their albums except for the self-titled; they've never made an "electronica" album or even a full-fledged "electronica" track unless it was a b-side or compilation track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they make a combination of instrumental stuff and electronica - much like a lot of people who make electronica. I mean, by your measure, squarepusher isn't electronica? on a differererererent point - Spreading Phlox: thats a pretty shitshort list. you're doing a poll of what people like best out of the people you like. |
||||||||

|
|
don't jump to conclusions, i never said anything about squarepusher not being electronica, nor red snapper or cinematic orchestra by that token. i just don't consider tortoise an electronic group; seems silly to label them that when they have so much more in common with rock and even jazz. electronica and hip-hop are more like secondary influences IMO. |
||||||||

|
|
imo they have more in common with electronica. oh well.. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just don't hear them as an electronica group, and i listen to them a lot. standards is definitely their most electronic album and at the same time it also has some of their most straight-ahead guitar riffs. what specific type of electronica do you think pertains to their overall sound? |

Its true that i didnt know what i was taking on in trying to choose a list for everyone to choose from. Im sure that i included as many different artists as most would come up with but there are always people missed that someone else likes. In the last few days alone i have got into people that i would have put on the list. Ideally people would type out their favourite for the vote. |

check biosphere if you like ambient music he's done about 10 albums, and they're all wonderful now that i got into him, im checking other musicians that produce for his record label-biophon- first two i got are very cool |
