Honestly..i havent been excited about music in years. I attempted to go record shopping whilst on vacation and found that most of the records already sounded like ones I had. the same things being repeated over and over again. When I have bought records over the last couple years its been on labels like Leaf, Hefty and Ghostly. Things more along the lines of Prefuse 73, Tadd, and Thomas Jirku. I actually attempted to play with my turntables the other day and wound up feeling quite contempt with Pole and other dub selections that were at least 2-4 years old. The music that usually excites me nowadays is things that are nostalgic like ODB or TCQ. While in toronto we went to go hear Gerald play and it was nice to hear electro pieced together well and just well...out. Personally my lack of ethusiasm is probably because my head is just not 95% deep in music anymore, dare i say not even 50%- I have other things going on in my life and not to mention I'm broke as a joke.
the forthcoming Telefon Tel Aviv album really got my interest back in music.It was as if someone woke me up from a sleep. tunes and artists along these lines continually hold my interest for some reason or another. perhaps it's because,to me, there seems to be almost feelable texture to their music. It's emotional and electronic at the same time. For me, anymore, the boomboomboom has about as much emotion and excitement as watching a shopping channel. morning rants... time for work. d --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > I like quizzes. > > >as in, it's not progressed? or it's still there if > you look in the right > >places? > > I think both for sure. a) it has progressed, and > exists in different forms > - but people call it other things or genres these > days. and b) that sound > does definitely still exist as 'techno' too - erm, > trying to think of a > good example, I guess there was alot last year. > > >why is it no-one's really fired up about music this > time of year?
