Moby - Everything Is Wrong made it!

These people clearly have no idea what the hell they're
talking about. My list would be totally different. What
about:

Autechre - Tri Repetae, LP5 or Amber
Squarepusher - Feed Me Weird Things or Big Loada
Aphex - RDJ or ICBYD
Biosphere - Substrata

Those are all classics IMHO - but leaving Autechre out is
unforgivable. (including them down at the bottom grouped in
with a bunch of other cunts is nuts)

I hate you Slant Magazine.

i agree with thethirdball.

the fact that Squarepusher's Feed Me isn't there, is
absolutely ridiculous..

no squarepusher, autechre, plaid, u-ziq?

about.

Forget that list. It brings to memory that list from Spin of
the 50 best metal albums or something like that.

hey electro, you avatar is sexy

it was an okkaaaaayyy list
alot of classic stuff there
but alot missing also

Points: 3346 Status: Regular



wow, i was surprised to see how good that list was!

of course they didnt include a lot of my personal favorites,
but still, i think it's one of the best lists ive seen. i
suppose that magazine is some kind of 'spin' or something?

a cynical person would say they'd been payed to put the
albums in that list as there is a buy cd icon next to every
cd

Points: 3346 Status: Regular



a "non-unrealistic" man would say what can possibly satisfy
the members of this mb? aphex was there! and it doesnt
stop here, boards of canada too!! and then there's black
dog. and they even mention autechre, uziq, squarepusher as
honorable mentions.

the list cant all be warp related records. people would
complain even more if they didnt put aphex et al. on the
list. i was surprised to see he made #3!

my 2 cents!

:)

i'm talking about my opinion, which stands. a list of the
top 25 "electronic" albums that does not include
squarepusher or autechre is an invalid list.

i don't think its that type of list

its a 'i'm old and i remember the nineties as if they were
yesterday' kinda list

and its more based on popular artists or sales rather than
having lesser known more 'specialist' sounding artists like
squarepusher & autechre

and how many of the albums on the list have you heard?


 

offline zaphod from the metaverse on 2002-11-13 20:19 [#00441040]
Points: 4428 Status: Addict



every single one. you make waaay too many assumptions.

Points: 4428 Status: Addict



also, i'll take it for what the name presents it to be, a
list of 25 electronic albums, and i don't consider a good
deal of whats on that list to belong over certain artists.
and i don't really see how endtroducing qualifies as
electronic. i always thought of it as cinematic hip hop.

i didn't assume, i was genuinely asking

no-one's gonna agree with any list apart from their own. i
prefer the private press anyway.

i was chuffed that the klf made it :)

i think the list was maybe put together for someone who
isn't that familiar with the genre and was looking for
something to buy / listen to in order to hear something new
perhaps

listening to squarepusher or autechre would probably put
newcomers off for life!

Good to see Black Dog Productions - Bytes made the list. I
don't know how that album couldn't.

How isn't 'Entroducing' electronic?? It was electronically
produced, not too mention that while their was much Hip-Hop
influence, Shadow also did let loose on some drum
programming.

Right right, I should of rephrased that, I meant as in using
drum machines/software/ yata yata.

And how is it a crap list just because AE isn't on their? I
feel that the list was pretty good. It was nice to see
Massive Attack and Tricky's albums ranked high, heck they
were awesome.

Not too mention my favorite Warp album made the list Black
Dog Productions. yes, it's a shame AE didn't make the list,
but I was quite happy with what they picked.
