You know what it's like when people say they like X and are interested in suggestions of something just like it. You suggest Y and Z because they're sorta like X, being all angular and pointy. Then, invariably, someone suggests S because it's a letter, too, and you just wanna smack 'em, cuz it's a letter, but it's nothing like X. like if i said i really liked Proem and someone then suggested Phonem, because Phonem is really only remotely like Proem when you get right down to it. no one likes to talk about it but i just keep liking Confield more and more... is there anything else like it? and I don't mean just anything remotely like it, like earlier Autechre - even that isn't just like Confield. i'm not really looking for just yer average sound collage stuff like, er, i dunno, leafcutter john or fennesz or electric company or vladislav delay or monolake or whathaveyou. something visceral and immediate is what i crave, if in fact that's what i like about confield, which it may not be. maybe i don't know what i'm talking about (that's more the norm with me, anyway), and maybe i need to revisit some of these other artists... but really - confield - is there anything else like it? ===== .Adam http://www.damek.org/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
