well fuck, titsworth, Ubik (ESPECIALLY ubik):
thanks so much for telling me why i think what i think after all, if we so much as say that we merely dont like it as much as his older stuff, it MUST be because we're all uncultured, unsophisticated idiots who are simply incapable of appreciating it
thanlk god you're here to tell us how wrong and stupid we are, and that we dont really appreciate good music
idm is just a stupid trend for us, just like 'alternative rock' must have been a few years ago
afterall, if ur not into really cool underground hip hop, or
you dont flaunt your knowlege of musical history around desperately, you must be a misguided idiot swept up in popular trends
we're just trying to be cool liking 'idm' makes us feel exclusive and smart nevermind whether you know anyting about us other than our opion on this ONE question
this one opinion is all you need to judge us we dont share your view, we MUST be idiots. you caught us, damn!
thanks for letting me know, i understand myself so much better now
no one could possibly merely not like the new album as much as his older stuff for any legitimate reasons...
thanks for putting me in my place
as you can tell, i have some obvious issues arrogant elitists who think they know everyone else's problems
just because there are a few people on this board who dont really know or appreciate anything about music (and im not saying there aren't) doesn't mean
everyone who happens to share their opinion on ONE matter, no matter how differently we arrived at that opinion, are idiots too
yeah your both very smart people, we're very impressed unfortunately, arrogannce, pretension and eletism tends to come with the territory
haven't you guys learnt anything from fraiser??

it was (misguided) "arrogant elitists" who i was criticizing in the first place. people who are idm snobs but only got into idm a few months ago after years of rock listening. all i'm saying is "know your place". if you get the references on DYKS? and still don't like it that's cool. it's not like this is anywhere near his best album. but if you're an idm snob without a background in the early years of electronic music (see modulations or listen to OHM: early gurus of electronic music) or ignorant/closeminded toward MAINSTREAM (not "underground", but top 40) hip-hop producers like neptunes and timbaland, it's hard to really take your opinion seriously on this album if you lack these reference points. if you'll notice, i didn't single anyone out. i don't pretend to know who's who, but certain comments make me suspicious of whether or not people really know what they're talking about.
that said, you can like or dislike an album w/o any context at all. but disliking DYKS? w/o the musical references i originally mentioned is akin to a rock fan disliking an autechre album. without certain musical touchstones, they miss the point.

also bear in mind the difference between "idm fans" and "idm snobs". idm snobs are closeminded to types of music outside of idm. idm fans are fans of idm.

If you have ears and enjoy music, you can make an ''educated'' judgement on an album no matter WHAT you know about its background and influences. A truly great album stands on its own, it doesn't NEED ''reference points''. This album is stinking up my Winamp ('cept for the first track).

although i apparently think much more highly of it than you do, DYKS? is far from an exceptional album. to think it's great you really do need to get the references. his albums that stand on their own are (in my opinion) HND, FMWT, BL, and to an extent MIRON. i'd say go plastic but my girlfriend--who loves afx, plaid, lfo, telefon tel aviv, etc.--hated it and she's listened to it 3 times or so. i'm not saying that's a lot, but it's not an album that can click with anyone. you need to get the references for that one (although unlike DYKS?, those references aren't very "esoteric".. basically you just need a brief history of squarepusher, warp, and drill 'n' bass, which my girlfriend lacked a year ago when she got the album).
you loved anstromm feck 4 when it was an untitled live track jay! don't front :P

I'll front all I want. :-) I was overly excited when I first heard it, but even then I usually was pretty disinterested later in the track.
But I truly do love the first minute and a half! It makes me bouncy. There's a lot of minute little percussive details in shit in the first half that float my boat, the rest is too manic!
I'm actually surprised though... I thought this album would be pretty straightforward and poppy... track 1 is a potential number 1 hit! Well, not really, but it's got its catchy Red Hot Carrish chrams...

My favorite Pusher moments don't involve pure maniacal chaos, though. And that's all that track becomes. Where's the gorgeous bass playing of Port Rhombus or the atmospheric textures of Tundra?
Stuck so far up Tom's pretentious English arse that he can't use them. :-)

ok, lets face it
people are just getting pissy because they read "Do You Know Squarepusher?" and they say to themselves "yes, yes i do, i am a hardcore fan, i know him and love him"
then it comes out, and its not what they expected, so they are mad and spiteful for being wrong... they dont REALLY know squarepusher. no one does. squarepusher is the only one that does...
he is not just the image we create of him in our minds.

listen to the afx peel session w/ 2 unreleased tracks, a beats mix of [radiator], and a slightly different mix of pancake lizard... excellent. and the 2 ae peel sessions of new tracks.
of course, the BEST peel sessions are by rock bands. you know, performers who actually perform. hehe.
