Darned cockwombles.
Actually, according to SM, Bowie was a racist paedophile Nazi...
Even worse, Madonna is sending tributes.

id personally like bowie to do a more modern scott walker type of record.
I'd go with that. Just for being so good for so long in so many different ways."There's a good case for Bowie as greatest solo artist of the 20th century and that's not just the grief talking."
Yeah, social media has redeemed itself a little this morning...
Is there anyone left of his stature? Dylan?
this is the most dissensus-type response i could write about bowie's death:

about how he (inadvertantly) is the father of the Sleng Teng riddim....
From that article:
"For all the sonic experimentation on display, very few effects were employed during the recording, not even the Eventide Harmonizer which Visconti had applied to live drums on Low after memorably informing Bowie and Eno that "it fucks with the fabric of time". Visconti only used it when mixing some of the Heroes album, and not the title track itself."
From Goldie's Autobiography:
...Mark (Mac - 4 Hero) was really open minded and he suggested we try using an HF 3000, which is an analogue harmoniser. You could say, play one note on a guitar and it would be harmonised by five notes above and five notes below. So I said: I wonder what happens if you put breakbeats into it?...
...The break was from James Brown's 'Funky Drummer', which everyone used right? But not this way. I started to really play with it and take it to the limit, without it falling out. It was contained within the two extremes. And it sounded brilliant - the pitch was going up but the speed stayed the same...
Conclusion: Bowie invented Jungle.
