Hmm, I find Solar X to be rather cheesy sounding to a point...
All this other stuff released this year IMO doesnt even come close to the
genius that is consisted on RDJ"s DruKQS.
Time will prove the naysayers wrong, trust me..
The album reeks of emotion and sheer beauty unlike anything else released
this year.
So what if itsn't all that innovative, its still leaps better then the rest
IMO..
Reasons of dissapointment might be that the expectations and the waiting
length for the release might have been too much and too long..
Whoopdie doo...
A lot of the so-called innovative stuff released this year lack total soul
IMO, and in terms of drawing blood from a machine RDJ is the bloody king...
Drukqs is innovative enough to even be there with the rest of them...added
to that this album has far more variations then anything else released as of
late...
If ya think ya got him figured out, he might be fooling you now, since he
could quite easily come up with anything so advanced out of nowhere, who
knows...
This seems like a purging all the personalities of RDJ kind of an album,
just to get ready to go on to the next phase, who knows.
But nonetheless, I DO think this is an album that is unparalelled in terms
of sheer enjoyability and emotion compared to anything else.
Sorry, But I found Confield to be a pile of Crap and I like Autechre...
A year from now...I guarantee you that DRukqs will already be considered a
Classic albeit a little controversial because of its seemingly incohesive
nature ( who cares?)...
Nah, Album of the year by far.....IMO....
Peace
