The flake period would be roughly 1995-2005 when Reznor was at the height of his fame after the downward spiral, became obsessed with one project (that became the fragile). It wasnt till With teeth that he started to get his act back together and making something that resembled music again. A decade with one vanity project to show during the height of your popularity for it in the music industry is fairly flakey.Vault101 said:Snip to respond
I have now, and you think right.II2 said:I think you'd get a kick out of Plastic Assault if you haven't heard them(?)
:O Someone else who actually knows who Jarre and Vangelis are (or, more precisely, knows of Vangelis as more than just the Chariots of Fire and/or Bladerunner OST guy)??? I salute you, friend!Xaryn Mar said:Yes but only the old stuff. Mostly Jean Michel Jarre but also some Vangelis and Kraftwerk.
Almost anything newer than that I don't consider music to be honest (exceptions are Pet shop Boys and some Daft Punk).
Although "organic" is not an antonym of electronic (or synthetic) and it annoys me when people call a record organic just because it has a few live instruments in, it's an effective dichotomy. "Electronic music", despite being such a massive field of music, is grouped together because it encapsulates a different ethos of composition and performance from traditional live music as it has existed for thousands of years.PoisonUnagi said:It confuses me how people call "Electronic" a genre of music. Does that make "Organic" a genre too?
