controvertial....

can anyone explain why (if possible) that certain artists
(like Autechre and AFX) have moved from melodic, dark
techno/idm tracks to random noise/pure electro sounds
tracks?

will they come back to the other side?

not that I've got a problem with it, hell my current top
album is Whitehouse Peter Suttcliffe... but its always
bothered me...

people change m8. The same thing gets stale if you do it
all the time.

I think it's evolution for every artist to move onto
something new and different each time. They don't loose
their roots, just grow for themselves. I'm find with that I
think.

the master tapes for drukqs and confield were ruined and
instead of abandoning the albums they decided to just
release them "as is" and hope to sell a few copies

I like the more melodic, older stuff myself, and sometimes
wish they would give us some more similiar material

and you didn't like them? some of them really are afx's best
material, like the curve and nin tracks.

he means he thought we could have a mature conversation
about how the most recent albums by afx and ae are complete
trash

don't you realise that most of the music you are listening
to (me included) is de-bassing everything the music industry
stands for - don't be so 'effin elitist.... for that is the
dark side.

i dunno...drukqs has always seemed melodic to me.. sure,
there are more harsh drill tracks..where the melody is more
subtle..and odd noise tracks.. but i think the piano bits
even it out

i'm not dissin the noise tracks/artists... i am a devotee to
them myself (jeez).... i just want to know your thoughts on
the subject. i.e. is this strain of music going to develop
through the noise and come to something new, or are all the
artists going to either stick with the noise or go back to
their early stuff?

i don't think drukqs is any noisier than HAB or rdj album,
just more refined (and mixed w/ new interests in music)

drukqs has been debated to death already though, you'd do
yourself some service to search for the word "drukqs" on
this board and read some of the long debates
