cern Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Here in Sweden we have a international music price award every year and the motivation to get the price is: "achievements in music and/or musical activity, or for achievements which are found to be of great potential importance for music or musical activity, and it shall be referable to all fields within or closely connected with music". -wiki And now when the house and electronic music overall has been more important over the years.. Doesn't the genius deserve a price?

I remember him picking up a joint Prize with Chris Cunningham - ARS Technica 1999 iirc. Ah, yeah here it's in here > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prix_Ars_Electronica I've got a video of them sitting in the audience together.

Schlitze Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Still no idea what this thread is about. Some kind of 'Price Is Right' game show for musicians? They go on TV and guess the prices of stuff to win a prize of $145000 and meet the Swedish royals. Uhm ok, yeah. i'm sure RDJ would be really up for this :-I Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/78538-aphex-twin-for-the-polar-music-prize/#findComment-1997340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zkom Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 I guess it's supposed to be a sort of "Nobel prize of music". Kaija Saariaho was the winner this year. She's not too bad.

Amen Lare Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 This is for lifetime achievement judging by names. Prize for grandpa's.
