Advice To Clever Children



To whoever posted this URL:

Thanks!  It was a very interesting read, to say the least, Stockhausen's
comments on looping (mostly negative) and his recommendations to
several artists (Richard James/Aphex Twin, Scanner, and David Pemberton)
on pieces of his own to listen to.  I don't mean to be negative (there's
been enough negativity of late) but Stockhausen's comments sounded like
"you kids are kind of ignorant, why not listen to some of my stuff and
learn from a real master". :)

Equally entertaining were the responses from James, Scanner, and Pemberton.
All were actually well-reasoned responses rather than just "F--- off, old
fart!".   James' "why dont YOU try listening to MY stuff" was pretty good. 
:)

They should get on this list!  Imagine the kind of discourse that we would
see!  Wait, we kind of have that now, don't we?  The subscribership
already ranges from grizzled, veteran "grandpas" to wannabee me, from
guitar players to keyboardists to DJs(?), etc.

Cheers,
 
Paolo Valladolid
