Jamie jazzed about many things:
quoted 1 line 1. Amon Tobin/Cujo (all)> 1. Amon Tobin/Cujo (all)
the new spring heel jack _disappeared_ reminds me of what later tobin (_permutation_ onwards>>) would sound like if he played instruments instead of sampled. i mention this because a) you may like it and b) i have lost count of the number of times people complain that amon just plays records. its what he does.
quoted 1 line 6. Squarepusher (any recommendations?)> 6. Squarepusher (any recommendations?)
personally, _hard normal daddy_ is the most comprehansive mangling of both genres. i would easily recommend anything upto and including _big loada_. after that (_rotten music notes ..._ >>>) he seemed to take himself more seriously as a musician and artist. ho hum.
quoted 1 line 10. Roni Size (reprazent)> 10. Roni Size (reprazent)
somewhere in a parallel universe, roni size is rightly pilloried as a purveyor of plastic jazzy jungle lite. and they are all laughing at us. some additions ... vert _the koln konzert_ picked this up because it was cheap and on sonig. had an early vert 12" that was pretty disasterous so wasn't really hoping for much. sounds like one long segment, its broken into four or five tracks. live improvisational piano jazz, that mutates occasionally into full blown mego like noise. electronic chatters and glitches are often in the background. has me wondering if i should get the keith jarret inspiration for this. i'm tending to yes at the moment. fridge _eph_ _of ep_ and the other recent ep, plus four tet _camomile_ _dialogue_ _32 or 36 something_. the four tet stuff is probably more consistently jazzy, there is more rock/pop in some fridge, but then some fridge is more idm than jazz as well. four tet is one of fridge. all very confusing. get them all. -martin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
