yeah. classical music has 100 dudes moving fiddly things in unison. electronic has lasers.

i wonder when afx will get the cheesy incomprehensible dj patter going

it will probably be through an fx thingy ??!?!

i think aphex aside, it actually speaks for the state of electronic music these days, would you ever see them using lasers and fog at a classical concert no lol. the music is mostly shit which is why they need to have all this eye candy crap to keep people interested - cause well, the music certainly isn't going to do it.

 

...or more to do with the fact that there's not much to watch as far as instrumentation or front man antics. & I think the lasers and fog specifically have more to do with being staples of electronic shows/rave culture.

Well think of it this way, next time you're at a show, try and imagine whoever is on stage playing with all the lights on and no visual shit going on. I think you'll find that in most cases whoever is performing wouldn't get away with whatever crap they're spewing forth, it's 90% hype

only time ive heard aphex address the crowd was in a live recording in Norway and he asked if they were Vikings and if they raped anyone recently. lol.

Hahah, what?! Was that from the Oslo set from 2003? And where in the set is that?

Just listened the whole set (oslo 2003) back again, didn't hear it. It also isn't the Kristiansand one (1997), right? So I'm quite curious as to where you heard that!

Nevermind, just found it in the Kristiansand one, weird I never noticed that before (it's at 11m30s), have listened to that set alot, hilarious though. Can't make up what he is saying after that.
