oh darn - seeing as how so many people feel they have to state how unpopular
Confield is with them, I just have to be a fool and say I find it by far
their best and one which takes their music to a new level. I love to be
challenged by music that makes me think as well as feel, music that provokes
questions as much as answers, and particularly music that sounds genuinely
innovative, courageous, unique even - music that leads where others might
(or might not) follow. Confield is/does this for me. There aren't many
artists in this field for me personally, Jon Hassell, Kraftwerk, 70s Miles
Davis and now with Confield, Autechre. Now I must go and read Philip
Sherburne's meditation on genre.
Of course for other people, other musics will fulfil these criteria and my
own lack of knowledge means that I've much to hear - suggestions welcome!
All the best,
Colin.
