Subject:: [idm] New Replhex stuff

So does anybody remember the last time Rephlex put anything good out? I just checked out the new Bogdan and Like a Tim and they're both VERY uninspired. The Bogdan, of course, was screwed up jungle with really funny vocals, but nothing amazing. The Like a Tim (Red and Blue Boxing) was interesting because it was made entirely on the Korg EA-1 and Korg ER-1 (maybe it was only interesting because this was my first "real" setup until I ditched the EA-1). So is it just that I'm sick of this type of music or has Rephlex really gone down the tubes? -- :: atomly :: atomly@atomly.com | atomly@atdot.org | atomly@cyrus.net http://www.atomly.com | http://www.mp3.com/atomly [CELL|(888)522.3830] | [CELL|(701)729.1631] | [HOME|(612)676.1817] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I think this discussion has been done before, but it's never wrong to re-evaluate :) I agree with the fact that nothing really worth listening has come out (with the possible exception of the Ovuca album, which actually has some nice tunes on it) for quite a while now. But the thing is: there are always people that do like it. I've never really liked Like a Tim for example, but a friend of mine really gets into that stuff. I like the sillyness in his tunes, nothing seems to go straight, but it's hardly something I'd play more than once or twice. It's commendable (or hard-headed? :) that Rephlex keeps pumping this stuff out onto us, they're really bringing something different to the overcrowded market of electronic music. Maybe it's not to everyone's liking, but it's certainly different :) On another note: There's a great article on Funckarma in this month's Dutch version of Future Music Magazine! The coverdisc even has an exclusive tune! In the article the two Funcken brothers (Funcken is their last name, I didn't know that :) say that they have released some stuff under different aliases...anyone know anything more about that? They're quite secretive about it, the only thing that's said in the article is: "the more perceptive listener's will sometimes have a definate moment of recognition" (that's a very bad translation btw, the original is in Dutch offcourse, but I hope you get the picture :) Maybe Quench are none other than the Funcken brothers after all?

actually, yeah, that was one of my tops of 99. i think the last rephlex release to be one of my year's best before that was _cylobian sunset_. i wonder if they'll put out anything worthwhile this year... * #### a disturbance in a system. #### laerm. @voicenet.com ##:# no particular place names/no particular song icq 5562209 i've been hiding/what am i hiding from? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
