Oh jesus christ not this fucking thread again.
Basically I think anybody who wants to make
decisions about peoples' open-mindedness based
on what "AE" album they prefer is either
compensating for their own "AVANT GARDE
COOLNESS DEFICIENCY" or else trolling for hate
mail. C'mon ... Amber's a fucking great album and
maybe I don't LIKE the sounds of metal scraping on
metal or decimated breakbeats as much as I like the
"classic warp" sound? Is that narrow-minded?
There's no rule that says you have to follow an artist
down a path. I mean look at John Coltrane and
Miles Davis. Coltrane went down the ASTRAL
PROJECTION THROUGH EXTREME NOIZE road,
wheras Miles Davis decided he wanted to pretend
he was some sort of Funky Half-Assed Jam Band.
Am I FAILING in some regard because I prefer 'A
Love Supreme' to 'Ascention' and 'Kind of Blue' over
'Bitches Brew'?
Sorry for the rant. Let's get back to talking about how
cool "IDM" is.. .
I think BOARDS OF CANADA sound like YANNI.
Squarepusher's best album was HARD NORMAL
DADDY because i really fucking love the WEATHER
REPORT. Discuss amongst yourselves.
