Yeah I've been brainstorming on the back of this beer box

no opn subforum?

good point!

trashes rephlex subforum

lol no the subforums are reserved for Artists

not rubbish

I'd pay an extra dollar a year for Ragnar to have his own (non-EKT) forum that no one else can post in, but we all can view. Also he can't post anywhere else, ever.

Noise Camp sounds fun. Should take the idea and make a summer-camp-themed collective group of noise artists who release under that name.

I like this. Workshop with your people and I'll help by checking if Angelfire/Geocities/AOL/etc are still hosting forums. Let's all report back here tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel.

every post on GenBan should be required to include nudity

so autistically WATMM to have the site owner himself come out and basically put an expiry date on the forum. that's how you build a community.

it should've become a general music forum by now. it kind of is one informally already, most of the discussion on here is not about IDM, which like most trailblazing innovative new genres had its flash of brilliance and then necessarily ended/evolved forward.

I'd hop to a general music forum in a heartbeat if it had some of WATMM's culture, leaving out the autism.

too bad everything before 2009 IS DELETED 

I still remember the furore about that.

how hard is it to run a forum anyway? surely you just pay the hosting and get some bitchass mofos to moderate. 

too bad this was the last thread of watmm 

watmm jumped the shark like ten years ago

SNARES s7bforum plx

Well, April 1st isn't far off now

Neither use/participate in social media.

 

Not the social media *you* know about anyway grandad

 

No, really - beyond Discord chat for gaming, neither one use *any* social media. They know what an utter waste of time it is. Hell, they laugh at me for using Twitter!

Would it ultimately depend on how active the Featured Artists are over the next decade?

 

(We're all gettin' old. Sheeyit.)

Exactly - I honestly wonder when (if ever) Richard will hang up his hat, fully expecting BOC to come roaring back once their kids are old enough, Sean and Rob will probably be releasing music that will take historians years afterwards to decipher, etc. I can see Tom transitioning over into classical bassist, doing small shows in intimate venues. Who knows though - look at all the musicians from the 80's still going despite their heyday being long over.

Out of all of them, I expect only Richard and Mike P to continue on with their music careers into their 60's. Maybe by then I can get joyrex.com back and start up an Aphex Twin fansite

We'll always have the subreddit though at least

(lol)
