What's your opinion on influences. Surely everyone has influences and it's impossible to ignore them...no matter how hard you try.
All music will end up following some sort of pattern...sound I suppose is different as there must be infinite variations, even beyond current understanding, but the technology these days allows people to expore these to the limit, and push the boundaries of sound further. I guess the same goes for the execution. My attraction to the music relates to the ability to express and conjure feelings in the listener....why does everyone put the emphasis on making things sound unique and unexplored. Surely music from an individual's soul is unique no matter if it sounds slightly similar to something else, the real talent is entrapping the listener in to your way of thinking. -----Original Message----- From: JARED WILSON [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2000 3:53 PM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: [313] Techno Visual Arts + sonic boom I would disagree. Experimentation does not exist. You state, "so if I sit down to make a track, if I do not start out with a concrete idea but instead figure it out as i go, then this is "experimental" no matter how straight ahead the resulting track is". There is no possible way to start something without having any idea of it before hand. Simply being conscious of your actions is enough information to disqualify your argument. To truly "experiment", in techno for example, you would have to step outside of the structure or language of "techno"; meaning "create" something "new" in techno. It is not possible to do this because of the limitations of language or structure of "techno" (or what ever you are referring to). You can only "assemble" never "experiment". Looking forward to any comments.
