Re new build, I listened to it recently cos Sean from autechre said it was one of his faves. Thought it was alright but so dated. I know I say that about a lot of stuff. But there you go. I basically think music is gonna be shit til you get a new 303 or something. Like, the best of any genre you can make, it's been done. I know this is a crap argument btw, it's like all those pro and anti dubstep wars from years ago, but I really do feel, right now, that unless there's a new technology or conceptualisation, it's like we're going up the stairs, down the escalator, on and on, and infinitum

Put down your magazines catalog, they aren't useful for developing a critical consensus ;)

seriously my blood pressure is rising i can't take this anymore think I'm going to have a heart attack. one of the most seminal albums of the late 20th century is dated.

it's not even jackin acid really (the rhythms aren't programmed for clubs but derelict industrial/post-punk squats) just sheer headfuck overloaded boxes psychedelic madshit. our millennial generations interstellar overdrive, in album form. just shrapnel whizzing past your head. it's the best UK take on chicago. more expanding than constricting.

even barty agrees that it is the rhythmic genesis of the hardcore continuum which links forward in time to UK funky.

i'd never even heard of the album until this morning, but...

FUCKING HELL! IT'S AMAZING!

Really, really, really, really fucking good.

I'm completely one over by it. A Damascene moment for me. I've had a long held belief that house and techno are the most boring, middlebrow genres of all time. That they refuse to ever turn the intensity up to eleven, always hovering safely at an inane 2 or 3 on the dial. But this album is absolutely amazing!

If there's more stuff out there like this then I'm a convert!

Maybe this has been mentioned already and I've missed it, but surely we can include Kraftwerk? The question is which album, though. There was a whole thread about this way back. Can't remember which was the most popular.

I did also listen to kraftwerks computer world (I've actually got it on vinyl as well, picked it up from a car boot years ago) and yes, that is a total classic. It's also on Sean's from autechres list

What can I say re new build, I don't like it. Sorry lads. But maybe I'll change my mind once thirdform sucks bliss bloggers off? It's all stil to play for. Barty I think we are gonna need you to post some charts or something and we add likes
