i must have been misunderstood

 

i've never sucked this guys dick, saying that he composes fast beats at nearly the same level of aphex twin was meant to be an insult to aphex twin and fast beats in general

he's ok, but he's just not on the same level as afx, ae etc. there's a certain also-ran quality to his music that just turns me off after a few tracks. i know you can work a beat repeat benn, try not to make it the backbone of the song.

Well, I like that new track. The beats don't really remind me that much of Aphex or Squarepusher (aside from that they're of a style those artists helped define), but it reminds me a lot of older Telfon Tel Aviv. TTA had a kind of similar cinematic thing going on. Anyway, I've liked a few big budget epic battle movies in my time too --they can't all be Herzog. Benn's good at what he does, and it probably does genuinely resonate emotionally for him when he makes it. Just because something's super polished doesn't mean no heart went into it.

 

(Sorry, had to balance out all the Flashbulb hate. Hate on guys!)

Holden: This is a site populated by militant movie buffs. Sad, pathetic little bastards living in their parents basement, downloading scripts and what they think is inside information about movies and actors they claim to dispise, yet can't stop discussing.

 

Sounds like another site I know...

Hey look it's hanky, 2010 edition.

really polished music without any soul or raw expressionistic introspective energy is way worse than badly made music with heart

 

most insightful thing you have ever said on this forum, his music reminds me of BT. He is afraid to be challenging so he piles on so much polish and sheen that you get wowed by the expensive sounding production.

I thought I made the BT comparison before maybe it wasn't on this message board

 

all of his fast shit sounds like a 12-year old in an adult's body who never grew out of Mega Man X music and has amassed a large collection of Mega Man/Zero porn. I don't care if it's on the same level as Drukqs on paper Drukqs has a completely different intent like to literally overwhelm and put the responsibility on the listener to 'keep up'. flahbulb is like soooo epic. He also learned to lucid dream like aphex twin but he's one of those guys who just starts flying around when he enters a lucid state because he's a fgt. aphex murders everyone he knows in cartoonish ways but no seriously if there was any truth to the lucid dreaming thing I imagine he'd do cool stuff
