    Trance

    Who else here is into TRANCE, the greatest genre of all time?? I searched the dissensus threads and none of the titles contained the word "trance", so I decided to start this one...

    Haikus and poems about music...

    JUNGLE - breaking news... Hey! Wait a minute...

    I searched for the old JUNGLE catch-all thread and I guess it expired? Weird. No interest in Jungle anymore. Oh well. But guess what... That Dieselboy HUMAN RESOURCE mix cd (by Evol Intent) is seriously wicked!!!

    A riddle...

    My father was a dreadlocked rude-bwoy who set off from his homeland on a mission to destroy Babylon, with nothing but an Amen break, a sine-wave generator, and a gunshot sample in his hemp backpack. He wandered upon a strange lush land where my mother walked with a deep 4/4 thump, her hair a...

    God

    I do not believe God* exists. However, I know many people who do. I always ask them, “Why do you believe that?”, because to me that’s the most interesting question. I figure the default state is to not believe, and that something happens in ones life that makes one a believer: Tragedy, some...

    The "it" connection. Hancock/SP/TrentReznor

    Has anybody else noticed that Nine Ince Nails "Down is it" is a direct rip-off of Skinny Puppy's "Dig It", which in turn is a direct rip-off of Herbie Hanckock's "RockIt". Similar electro drumbeat and heavy synth orchestral stab. Is this a coincidence or some in-joke... or should I say...

    Calling all Steve Coleman fans (and haters)

    Steve Coleman makes some of the most unique music I have ever heard. I would describe it as extremely intelligent, conceptual, modern funk jazz. Although some 'fusion' music makes compromises in order to come together, this does not. Steve Coleman has been doing his thing for years and this...

    What's that jungle sample?

    Does anybody know what that sample is in all those old skool jungle tracks?? It's the one you hear used as part of the percussion. Usually at the beginning of a bar. Sounds like a high pitched voice saying "add up" or something like that. I hear in in LTJ Bukem songs and in the original old...

    "four to the floor"... my obsession.

    Back in 1987, while listening to Erasure’s “Two Ring Circus”, was when I first consciously realized that some music had the kick drum hitting on every beat. From then until now my feeling towards “four-four” has grown from mild disdain to outright obsession. My trip has taken me to places...

    My plan to destroy Capitalism...

    Capitalism IS inevitable. Or more precisely, the world as it is today (of which Capitalism is a part) exists as the natural result of a cause/effect cycle that has been going on since the Big Bang. A natural ebbing/flowing of energies and the laws of physics and a reflection of what it means...

    Music Criticism

    Heard this on NPR (National Public Radio in the US) today. In an interview with UK comedian Billy Connolly... "It's the same as my theory about critics... they're all looking the wrong way. They shouldn't be looking at the performer, they should be looking at the audience to see the effect...

    Desert Island Discs? Not quite...

    To pick one's top 10 favorite records of all time would be just too frustrating and nerve-fraying for most of us I suppose (what to leave off???), so I propose the following possibly more objective and maybe more insightful question... What 10 CDs/LPs/Etc do you suppose you have listened to the...

    ilXor.com

    Anybody here post on ilxor.com? (http://ilm.ilxor.com/) It seems like one big in-joke to me. I never see much real discussion. But it can be kind of funny/diverting. How would you contrast Dissensus and ilxor?
