I hope you're aware that Experience was derided at the time as an over-commercial watering-down of rave music filled with crap variations on Charly:

Personally I think it's aged horribly and is massively over-rated. I only play Out Of Space and Hyperspeed from it. Experience Expanded added some good tracks but it's probably the most over-rated dance LP of its day.
As for the new album, I'll take it you haven't heard any new Pendulum, Qemists or nu-rave if you think it's a "breath of fresh air". Howlett is just cashing in now. Only Warrior Dance actually sounds like it's from 1992 as opposed to what 16 year old rock kids think 1992 sounded like. |
It shares the similar Pendulum-ish rave style which they were hardly unique using to begin with; it's just so much better done and this level of quality hasn't been for so long that it IS indeed refreshing.
Personally I think Experience is much better for it's time than FotL. |

Hudson Mohawke, Kris Wadsworth, Nick Curly, Jin Choi, Alex Niggelman, Manuel de la Mare, Monojoke, Juno 6, Sei A just to name a very short list. They may not be all new to the scene but they're all good in their own way. |

Hmm some of this stuff were okish, but no way that they are "fresh" and "inspiring". Instead, you get the usual deep/tech house of the last 10 years with a bit of Deadmau5-esque style :nervous: . I mean some of the stuff are cool but they have no value out of the club context. Now ok, EThats what we were talking in that previous thread, compare every single artist yhou posted with 90s works like: Underworld-Secondtoughestintheinfants, Leftfield-Leftism or even some classic trance releases like the stuff in Eye-Q. Enormous artistic gap...
But maybe its just me getting old and growing-out of EDM :tongue3 |

No, it's you not wanting to accept the fact that new music doesn't make you feel the way old did (for some reason) and the fact that things naturally work that way. I mean my dad listens to only Beatles and Rolling Stones and says that all new music (especially electronic) is . While I wholeheartedly disagree with him, I know where he's coming from and understand that this modern music just can't replace all the memories and everything else he associated with that music of his youth. |
