And can we sort of move away from comments like this Frown? I'm so burnt out on reading them, and I think I'm getting a headache from reading over and over who doesn't like Filter. This guy gets it. We can move on lol. |

I think Frownland makes a good point, though. There's nothing wrong with the fact that bands like Filter make music that is fundamentally uncomplex as long as you enjoy it. However, when you're using simplicity w/r/t the amount of work that goes into creation as a criticism against electronic music, there's a bit of a double standard.

Ja, DaedChannel's got it right. I wasn't even saying my opinion on Filter tbh, their music just doesn't sound like they worked all that hard on it to me. Nirvana's in the same boat (even though I do dig them, as opposed to Filter). I think that the outcome of the music is more important than the process it was created in. The creation process can be interesting if the artist takes a different approach (modern classical really comes to mind here), but all in all its the end result that counts.
I'll toss you a pm with some links later today.

Why would you need music theory for that? I don't think they're popping in sounds and going "ja that's cool," it's probably more along the lines of manipulating certain samples and arranging them. Maybe if I had the technology to do it I could, but I'm of the same opinion as Mondo on this one.

I feel I must throw this in, not as an example of electronic music because it's not, but as an idea of what you can do with very little real technology but a whole shedload of talent and inspiration, and allowing the listener to almost fill in the gaps...
