and go to see jason forrest live tomorrow …
because since alexstrain started it here I got interested in that kind of music … I wonder what will happen there.
Thats it. Its all over for me. I’ve been categorised
well sorry, really didnt mean to !
first of all I was referring to that breakcore set you posted some time ago.
All this music is really new to me and I have yet to find a way in that. So I am at a point where I basically try to exclude things (its not house, triphop, d&b ) and try to find atleast some basic similarities.
however, what about jason for(r?)rest ? I heard two CDs, they were way to stressy to be listened at home, but it might look different with some beer, live-action and alot of lightshow … I am really looking forward to it.
s’all good, was taken on board as praise
I’ve never heard of this guy before, got some interesting music
I just comment as this is something nobody has really done before - compare my music to someone elses - I’ve become much more accustomed to people telling me “wtf is that, sounds kinda strange…”, etc, which was innitially taken as insults
as far as I was able to comprehend it by listening to his music he samples 70s disco music (something I do too) and really beats the crap out of it (something I dont do). especially that record “The Unrelenting Songs Of The 1979 Post Disco Crash” was a flash, I did know quite alot of the samples, but what he did to them …
he certainly has a retro flavour.
sounds like he puts a bit more planning into his tracks than yours truly, I tend to just follow a vibe till I get bored of it or stumble upon another train of thought accidentally. Its all pretty ad hoc
on wikipedia jason is listed as an example for breakcore (under his “donna summer”-alias). just so you know
wow, that was a great evening. not much people showed up unfortunately, but anyway. first some djing, then a gig by two guys called “the assdroids”, very cool. they started each song with some computer-breakcore-songs, that played a while and then they jumped to drums and guitar and continued there. very intense. after that jason forrest with only a g3 laptop, making jokes, dancing, screaming and playing disco, jazz and breakcore versions of his songs on request.
It was really cool.
