Yup, i agree in the end it is just wether you like a piece of music 
or not, if it is innovating that is just a nice extra. Why do you 
like techno, because its innovative or because you 'just happend to 
like music'?

JT,

"Supa Dupa hype micro Macro sample glitch Hop House" record without any 
statement or emotion

Look at Jazz for example. There are many artists in this artful music that need 
a whole lifetime to find their personal style.

Cheers, Arne

I think there is a strange phenomenon developing, with the acceleration of 
technology and culture...  it seems people are no longer content to let 
artists develop and refine an original sound... instead, after two or three 
years, people get upset if artists don't go somewhere new. Traditionally, 
the time frame for developing as an artist was a lifetime.  Now if someone 
does the same thing for ten years they are considered boring!  I think it 
is unfair to expect artists and genres to develop at such a quick rate.  
And, if you haven't figured it out, I don't think techno is dying at all.  
It's just a little too much to expect that the boundaries will ALWAYS be 
getting pushed to some extreme year after year.  Sometimes periods where 
art matures are good too, and may in the end produce some of the most 
refined and substantial works. Just my opinion...

Re: [313] new Drexciya LP!

2002-06-20 Thread gord

jt,

The 12" is definitely more pounding than a lot of recent Drexciyan 
releases.  That said, it's still a bit on the experimental tip.  Two of 
the tracks are pounding techno grooves: one with a twisted sort of 
Detroit feel (offkey synth stabs) and the other with harsh spacy sounds 
layered in.  The third has more of an electrobass feel, but still 
retains that Drexciyan deepness (probably my favorite of the 3 tracks).


Nothing really "earcatching" with any of the tracks, but that's pretty 
much Drexciya's style of late (as you say, different and less direct).  
I passed on the last Tresor release as well but feel that this one is a 
bit better (although definitely not Drex's best work).

The 12" and LP on Tresor are head and shoulders above this one, 
although

I've not heard the full LP
To be honest, I was a bit disappointed when I got it...

3 rhythm tracks really, no melody or bassline, at least one of which is
abstract kind of electronica stuff.
It's kind of closer to the Translusion thing than to the Drexciya 
thing on

tresor..

I only heard the 12" so far but it is really a good one. I think the album will 
be like Raoul mentioned before. A mixture between really quiter electronic 
stuff and much more aggressive weird stuff like the "molecular enhancement" on 
Submerge

JT, I think there won't be too much basslines on the album.

Okay, just my opinion (and hope)
