i'm just listening to pan sonic and i'm thinking about how
i'm arrived to listen to minimal tecno and glitch.....i mean
it all started with nirvana...i can still remember the day i
listened for the first time to nirvana's bleach....it was 6
years ago and when the first notes of blew hit my ears i
was so impressed cause i had never listened to something
like it......well then i started to discover a lot of
bands(kurt cobain favourite bands)like
melvins,mudhoney,sonic youth,pavement,dinosaur jr....the i
discovered noise with bands like big black and jesus lizard
then post rock and i think the most important link with
electronica are tortoise wich really changed my idea of
music....no guitars 2 bass and keyboard....finally i bought
incunabula(autechre)
and now i'm listening to kulma.
sorry for my awful english
but
how do you get there?
what's your evolution?

or 2unlimited (anyone remebers), after this i started with
mayday things like this... then there was german punk-rock
about two years... i got back to westbam, and bought my
first cd, thunderdome V... then chemicla brothers, limb
bizkit, d-12 (wow, i really listened that) and then, there
was aphex....and now i hear gantz graf when i go to the
toilet....

shitty nu-metal > NIN > aphex twin > idm

and NIN led me to coil too, and einstürzende neubauten and
some other bands...

now i discover most of the bands i know with forums...

i forgot that before nirvana i use to listen to italian
musicians like jovanotti and 883 which you should know very
well.
but also early 90 dance music...anyone remember that song
"short dick man"?

i started with fatboy slim back in 98'. i started exploring
the other big beat artists, going for the stuff that sounds
the least like clubby sounds...soon i discovred Req, who was
on fatboys' label but moved to warp..so i decided to see
what warp was like by listening to their main player, Mr A
Twin.....

i have never lisened to any songs with lyrics of any kind
and i never will, including and especially rock and/or roll
:P

i started with stuff liek the smashing pumpkins in the mid
90's, then sorta just a lot of pop stuff.
then one day i was introduced to nofx, and i went out and
bought some records and got into punk rock. yeah man. i'm
still a punk at heart :)
then i went to vancouver in 1998 and my cousin and adam
hodgins showed me downtempo stuff and some dnb and
eventually i heard some boc and aphex.
when i first strated listening to electronica type stuff it
was like trance and fatboy slim and such. then a lot of
ninjatune styled stuff. then thievery corporation and kruder
and dorfmiester.
then eventually i got into some aphex and i got big into
squarepusher.
and just sorta branched out from there

yeah

well... 1987... my father gave me a tape of queen (a day at
the races) I was 12 years old. that introduced me into heavy
(dont know why) I think because of the great guitars...
metallica (master of puppets and kill em all)... the early
nineties came with nirvana which introduced me into
alternative rock leading to smashing and on the other hand
beck (a friend in university).... so after beck.... bjork...
tricky... massive attack... portishead... kruder and
dorfmeister... (some fatboy slim and chemical and primal
scream and moby)... by accident a disc of boc in 1998 and
red snapper in 1999 lead me to warp... then... dj shadow
(apart from warp) lead me to unkle and all the mo wax... and
in 2001 I knew drukqs...

started with "nevermind" when I was 16, so thats 8 years ago
(!).. then went on to the Breeders, the Pixies.. then on to
Kristen Hersh, Throwing Muses.. getting into a bit of Eels
(electro-shock blues) by then.. lots of guitar bands.. BIG
everlasting crush on PJ Harvey.. PJ was my last big change
(I always have "big musical changes" - that my taste
switches to something new, mostly more complex).. I was
looking for something new.. tried the Chem Brothers - that
wasn't it... Luke Slater? nice, but still not what I was
looking for.. then I heard "foil" on "amber" by Autechre and
THAT WAS IT!!

new kids on the block was the first music i listened to (or
maybe it began with the heartbeat, hard to say). no, it was
the smurphs sing along, before school. new kids were later.
i was pretty young, but i spent a lot of time with my aunt
who is only a few years my elder. in no particular order,
somewhere around the third grade i discovered bryan adams,
mc hammer and vanilla ice. i didn't listen to the radio,
but i managed to aquire these tapes. by fifth grade i heard
nevermind and on through nirvana and ganster rap by 6th
grade and then it becomes countless. nine inch nails was
pretty important. heavy metal and dank music. come to
daddy, raves and candy, revolutionary emcees, hippies. when
i had finally come to appreicate tri repetae my entire music
appreciation protocol was altered and expanded. since then
i've found most of the music i listen to today, which is too
broad a list to go into to.

it all started with nirvana.
anyway when you start listening to idm it's really hard to
come back to what you use to listen to before......and now
for me it's almost impossible to buy a rock album.....i only
buy highly original rock album.....because it's so
trite......i'm so tired of electric guitar...and this is sad
because I PLAY GUITAR
anyway if you want to listen a band wich sounds different
try u.s. maple.
they're from chicago
sonic youth+polvo+captain beefheart+pere ubu
