i've bee saying this for ages, on this forum too, meeting with considerable objection. Thanks to David Toop for saying it during his recent lectures, and Tony Herrington for following up in the pages of The Wire:
techno didn't emerge from tabula rasa, and Kraftwerk should be seen as firmly...
Don't think that there is a thread on this yet. I was agnostic about the first track I heard from her but this one is amazing. The video, where stoned yet perfect automatons re-enact Wild at Heart, complements the Chris Isaak meets Portishead music perfectly. I can't remember the last time...

this is something i need to get off my chest. 4/4 kicks are wrong.
listening to planet rock last night it has the synth and drum machine that all the techno guys used but with, to my ears, a more interesting rhythm.
there's a huge division in electronic music between 4/4 and non
Martyn said about his Fabric 50:
“I did the whole mix CD live just because I thought that was more honest than doing an Ableton DJ mix. It is how I would play live - not everything on the CD is perfect, but it’s not meant to be. That goes for my DJ sets and for my music as well; there’s always...
Hie all, I am Lex, very new to the board. I have gained so much knowledge, especially concerning music from this board and the people associated with this board.
