well if you expect cheap pop shit like most ppl seem to, its kinda normal to be disapointed by good music. ;)

And then there's loads of autechre-inspired demos, in which people don't mention about their source of inspiration...
Like:

... Which is a great demo despite the not-mentioning-thing.

Rephlex is so much better than warp :D

\o/ Gentle people are love \o/

And let's not forget that the Autechre vid in rainmaker's example was made by Chris Cunningham. Credit where credit is due!
everybody and their sister has ripped ideas from chris cunningham

at least.
then again Cunningham probably ripped ideas from Hitchcock.

i blame it all on mtv for starting to use sp and afx on their adverts. mtv is killing the scene, repressing experimental electronic artists to consumers.

Picking on electronic music for its nerdy over-categorization might seem a little unfair, considering the comparably ridiculous number of rock subgenres. Then again, a reasonable person might easily confuse techstep with nu skool breaks, whereas nobody in their right mind would mistake emo for hair metal. Genre distinctions in rock generally follow from some major difference in the music’s characteristics; if it followed the same rules for subgenre-creation that electronic music did, people would be saying “check this out, I’ve invented ‘backwoods prison rock.’ It’s like ‘prison rock’ but with a harmonica.” Plus, rock has the mitigating factor of being real music, whereas the world of electronic music is totally lacking in soul, talent and artistic relevance. Yeah, that’s right, I’m going to go ahead and paint in absurdly broad strokes just because I can. Now let me open up my e-mail client and watch some geeks flip their scruffy lids; if anyone is wound tightly enough that tedious shit like Boards of Canada or M83 could actually stir excitement within them, I can’t wait to see what a tongue-in-cheek insult does to them.

beau minet >> speedy j is still making techno, even bigger and bolder:P

Autechre - Amber is just great
raver, imo the stuff speedy j does it "just" good techno. nothing special there, but then again i'd not be the one to ask for anything special :-)

but well hmm his live performance that i saw some half year ago was a tad disappointing, still - kindof was just like any techno deejay.

i've witnessed shitloads of ppl enthusiastically talk about boc and m83. never quite understood the hype of m83 though. sotl and gybe are shitloads more insteresting then them, yet everyone keeps mentioning m83.. oh well, its an unfair crooked world we live in. =)
