if one person is interested in music, then they probably don't care
whether the music was made yesterday, 40 years ago, or 400 years ago.
if another person cares about the present only, then they probably
aren't interested in music made yesterday [or earlier].
you completely missed my point witch is that here is to mutch talk
over a very narrow field of music nameli cages and xenaxis and
stockhousens, i have never read you discuss any other remarcable
artist or genere or technique...
so based on your statement i would say that you are only interested in
the past, and not in the present...
and ofcourse i have listend to many artists and generes and will do it
in the future also, but i´m not sticking to past, but heading towards
tommorow...
and aphex was just a mere example of a great composer, if you fail to
see his briliance i doubt you can ever understand cage or some one
other...
one more thing is the lack of feedback, it was not my intent to
provoke a intence discussion, but i asumed some ppl might feel the
need to start to argue - to few did, so even if i did not express my
point very good i take it as most of you understood what i tryed to
achieve and admit that i was right...
as i´m reading from the microsound homepage one of the goals is to
discuss digital and post-digital music styles... i wonder is that not
the future gomes digital not after analog??? and dont start that
post-digital means analog again.
this list is suposed to discuss curent performances, trade new
original ideas, future cages should originate from this list and i´m
not telling that theese topics are not beeing discussed, i´m only
saying that here the old horse is beeing beaten 80% of the time and
new interesting ideas and thoughts are beeing discussed 20% of the
time...
what has happend to europe now in the post-war times, ppl are
collecting more stuff(money, belongings) and thinking less globaly
(the majority does so) and less are thinking on sience and the future
and developement, many have lost their honour for money and comfort.
the same is here, where it is very easy for thinking ppl to discuss
past (beat the old horse) rather than greate new ideas(abart form
seeing old gurus in new angles) - this is the comfort of thinking. do
sth...dont lie to yourselves
...ah what am i trying to achieve here anyways, i apologise for the
trouble and unsubscribe have all of you listend to all of the
generes and diversitiues of music out there, and trying to understand
why it is out there???
