He has this energy expressed through dynamic intense pulsating patterns that characterise his compositions ("Reichisms")... the kind of atmosphere he sets is second to none...but yea philip glass is excellent as well i reckon!

I like Reich's stuff too, what I enjoy most from Glass are his piano works and film scores.

Originally posted by Akazi anyone else tired of minimal and all that clicky, deep and wannabe meaningfull, "intellegint", pretentious music? i know i am...

I know the cosistent producers/labels out there so I know what to listen out for and know what to skip passed and i find plenty decent tunes to keep me going.

I'm more sick of people labelling everything thats produced under 130bpm as minimal, most of it's bordeline prog, I think a lot of people are to quick to bash 'minimal' as a genre (which it isn't by the way), before they even know what it really is.

bpm has nothing to do with minimalism.

if you read half carefully you'll see that's exactly the point i'm making..

Minimal to me is easy to listen to. It's more of a background music!

If you listen to it as background music you're probably not hearing what makes minimal so good...

The other TA members are right, you can't just brush off a whole EDM genre/sub-genre just because you don't like a lot of the productions. Even though minimal isn't my "cup of tea" either.

wow,, all the minimalist in here are making me sick..

personally i enjoy it very much as upfront music, altough at times it seems as if people look down on you because your joining the "fad." even after big names stop playing it il def keep listening and playing it, admitedly i prefer variation in my sets and dont play pure minimal sets everything in moderation is good.



can someone define Tech-House for me? because ive always found it difficult to classify as most sites call that minimal...

what would things like:
Mason - Exceeder
Thomas Schumacher - Rotor
Marc Romboy vs Stephan Bodzin - Atlas

come under?
