cear Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I only ask because I figure there are a number of artists with similar or more technical merit, [who] were equally or more so influential to the scene... Who are they in your opinion? I think Vibert has influenced tons of musicians, even Aphex' analords series were inspired by the lovers' acid album, right? The wagonchrist moniker has inspired tons of artists including DJ shadow, Kid koala (I read that in some interviews a bit back, will see if I can link). http://forum.watmm.com/forum/20-luke-vibert-forum/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant theres other people with more influence. =P I am hung over and not entirely with-it today. Forgive me. Venetian snares has definitely influenced the current scene, probably more so than any other artist in the last 10 years, though his merit is debated by some people...

Joyrex Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 VSnares has specifically asked we don't feature a fan forum about him, so that's off the books... I have been considering Ceephax recently as the guy certainly can hold his own with his brother's output... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Ceephax has certainly got some decent output, and in terms of keeping music discussion relevant (I mean... current versus nostalgic...) it is certainly reasonable! Ceephax and Mouse on Mars would be two of my recommendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond the classics already mentioned: Trojan Fader Style Formant Potaton Bounds Green the little gems he put up on youtube: His Ambient News project. All fucking gold.

Yes, thanks, these are really nice. Even his stuff as nonprivate is fucking 1000 times more interesting than Snares' output. I haven't heard the nonprivate stuff but I think people pick on Snares a bit too much. On the whole, I like Snares' stuff at least as much as Cylob's.

chenGOD Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I enjoy quite a few of Snares' releases, the earlier stuff in particular is great. Pretty much everything up until Horse and Goat I really enjoyed. Some of the stuff after that has been a bit more hit and miss. Although I did really like HCCBU and Rossz too. But it's not interesting to me the way Cylob's music is. Cylob really challenges you as a listener, he uses tonality and sonority to express himself in ways that Snares just doesn't touch.

patternoverlap Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) don't forget the two Music System 12s and Spider Report edit: bought the two Ambient News albums recently and have been enjoying them thoroughly.

I'm more interested in his Last Step output than his Snares stuff. Agree with you on Cylob; some of his stuff you really have to listen carefully to extract the subtle bits and appreciate them.

Joyrex Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 I'm glad what turned out to be a negative thread has transformed into an appreciation of the great music Cylob makes, and why he has a subforum here for his fans to show their appreciation.

schlucharski Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 indeed lots of love for cylob, here are a few of my favs, mostly not on youtube - brain in a jar - I want to see you naked - kyoto - Get A Taste (Weakly Non-Linear Mutual Attraction Mix) - total information awareness [media=] [/media][media=] [/media] [media=] [/media] [media=] [/media] [media=] [/media] [media=] [/media] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
