I really think drukqs is his best album to date, and for a number of reasons. first of all, to me all of his other albums seem somewhat static. Beginning with RDJ his music became a little more dynamic, but it was all tiny footsteps towards a much larger goal. come to daddy and for the most part windowlicker were extensions of this, although window licker was more of the prelude to drukqs in my opinion. druqks has to be one of the most complex albums i've ever listened to, and not so much in the autechre-grain-cloud-additive-jizba way. beyond that, drukqs shines through in style. no one else on this planet has his style, and you can hear it in every single track on that cd. on the other hand, i do have to say about drukqs that I dont listen to any of the "melody" tracks really, minus one or two. for the most part they sound to me like a single synthesizer with a few different chords and rhythms, although the prepared piano stuff is interesting. all in all i think it should have been just one cd and a lot of the melody tracks should have been cut, but then again i dont drive a tank. sz _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM: Try the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
