It really trips me out that so many people on the list don't live "muisc is one rotted note." The first time I heard it I flipped... I still love it. It has such a great blend of grooves+noise+drums. Would it be safe to say that most of you also don't enjoy Miles Davis? "Music is" has such a "bitches brew" vibe to it - it also parallels several of the Live Miles CDs (which are a pleasure to listen to!). Or maybe it all has to do with the fact that "Music is" goes where electronic music doesn't usually go and that the tracks are more like jams or even songs - as opposed to is other blippy/303madness/superchopo-drum-freaks/occasional-bass-noodle tracks. "Music is" was the 1st Squarepusher CD I bought - and now, 8 months or so later, I've purchased almost everything he has released (I have a feeling there are some underlying beta wave transmissions in his songs which have programmed my brain to become addicted to his music!). The album seems so ORGANIC, so alive, I can close my eyes and see him playing this stuff. AH I wish I could see him perform... but we all know about that from that one guy's post months ago... the great "Squarepusher live review AN ANGRY FLAME" from May 1999 From: xxxxxxxxxx@xxx.xxx Ah... now that was a thread :) Ok... time for coffee! Good day to all. -- Hasta, Gideon ............................................
