I want to come out in the open and confess the following:
I am absolutely not influenced by these "fathers" of EDM:
- Kraftwerk
- Vangelis
- Gary Neuman
I find Kraftwerk unlistenable, Vangelis - suitable for elevators, and Gary Neuman - a Trent Reznor wannabe without all the anger but definitely a 100% suicide music.
I was cleaning out my CD collection and could not understand how I could listen to such crap even once without throwing it out of the window.
Just thought I'd share.

The bladerunner soundtrack is one of my all time favorite scores.... That and cliff martinez's solaris score... Not really a fan of the other two. Though i am fond of depeche mode, new order, the who, duran duran, etc...
And when it comes to dance music im influenced by spooky, william orbit, react to rhythm. jam and spoon, pretty much the entire line up from guerilla records.. |

Hey. Not trying to be objective here, but how can you not possibly respect atleast Vangelis. Vangelis, while a bit crazy/wierd/whatever, he created some of the most amazing pads and synth sounds that many companies try to create in new hardware and software and he did it before MIDI was even a thought. All analog and brand new were voltage controllers (pre-MIDI controllers that used voltage changes instead of digital data). The fact that he was able to do what he did with little help from other people is way more than enough to offer atleast some respect and honor. Just show some repspect and appreciation. We would seriously be in a totally different world with synths if he hadnt come along.
Cheers,
Zac |
