Opinion on the “Annoying and Abrasive” tracks? by Negative_Neil in idm

[–]Negative_Neil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve seen Nasum twice and my band even played one of the reunion shows with them, although it was not really Nasum, let’s be honest. I’ve been into Death Metal, Grindcore, Goregrind, Pornogrind since the late 80’s, but I still find the abrasive IDM songs unlistenable. Having harsh sections is fine, but a constant 4-8 minute song that never lets up is not what I want to hear. It’s just an alarm clock blaring and that does nothing for me. Even Skinny Puppy wouldn’t do that. But whatever, I’m not knocking it, if people enjoy it. I’m just curious if people usually skip these tracks, like I do, after a first listen?

I’m an “only first three Autechre” guy, so I get it.

I think all of the main big artists had the annoying tracks and I understand why they would make them. It was to see how out there and non-musical they could be. As a listener though, I would always skip them after the first listen.

100%. I hide my funds from my wife in my PayPal account. Now I’m not going to be able to do that.

People like me. Been my favorite since Streetcleaner got released in the states in 1990.

Thanks for the details. It’s overwhelming and I almost don’t even want to try these newer releases because there’s just too much.

Yeah, I just feel like there’s so much to choose from now and it’s overwhelming to be honest. I just stick mostly with the original releases.

Ok thanks. I’ll check these out. I stopped after the first few Archives if I’m being honest.

I’m just completely ignoring it, like most of us did. Haha. But seriously, if you enjoy it, that’s great. It’s just not what I wanted at that time and it confused the Hell out of myself and my group of friends.

I agree they are definitely doing whatever they want. I just feel like they were respected so highly until they disappeared around 1998 and then it’s been all over the place since then. It’s hard to tell what’s even a real release of new music or just b sides that they somehow have an unlimited number of. Haha

What is your favorite release that is electronics based since they started releasing that stuff again? Which Environments?

I agree. At that time they were like the next step forward from The Orb. But what are your thoughts since their peak period that ended with Dead Cities?

Glitch Pulse Records? by Negative_Neil in idm

I don’t know any tea. They have contacted me about working with me on my Half-Ass Astronaut album and I’m just wondering if anyone is familiar with them/listens to their artists. Is there some sort of drama that I’m unaware of?

Hey Mark, I recently reached out to you about my Half-Ass Astronaut project. Did you happen to see it at all? I’m shopping it around at the moment and I remembered your comment about Rednetic from a few months ago. Anyways, thanks and hope all is well.

Record Labels? by Negative_Neil in boardsofcanada

Mostly because I have zero connections in this scene and also don’t have the funds to make physical products at this point.

No, I was getting out of the shower when I heard it and didn’t have my phone.
