"I respect a handful of artists not because they're innovators, it's because they're doing something different! " an innovator is someone thats doing something different isnt it ?
Anyhow i think of it this way, there can only be a handful of great amazing musicians in any realm. If everyone was 'amazing and unique' then it would be impossible for people to come up with new stuff you see.......and those that were amazing wouldnt seem so amazing. also think that what seems innovative and creative to one ears, sounds like weird shit to another.........its also what drives every musician to make music.
I purposely dont listen to much music similar to my own, its very easy to hear something and want to replicate it because its amazing. Its kind of why i write music, because you get those odd moments when you make something that blows even your own self away, and you're like 'fuck, i made this and its awesome'.
And lastly not all people want to hear unique fresh music unfortunately. Many just want to listen to music thats comfortable for them, easy to enjoy and not scary you know. I love extra weird and of course theirs the true geniuses that no one will ever sound like no matter how hard they try -aphex, sigur ros, bjork, ....3 thats all i can think of i would say are true geniuses........of course there are others........so weed through the shit....that way the gems shine even brighter when you find them.....little scales,balam acab,helios etc etc
And also, stop whining and go and imitate...oops i mean innovate ! : P

Re: Ambient instrumental albums? (42 replies, posted in General Discussion)
i second logreybeam....infact everything on TYPE is amazing.
No-one mentioned 'Helios - Eingya' possibly the greatest chilled out record of all time....
also i'd give a nod to pretty much everything on tri angle records. Not quite ambient but hey i can smoke to that shit for real ! 'balam acab' makes some of the most beautiful stuff i've heard in a long long time,
you ll also find an array of chilled out glitchy electronica at INPUJ.net
and lastly, Yasume - Where we're from the birds sing a different song. This is logreybeam and someone else, cant remember who....
i think i almost wore out my vinyl of that from playing it so much : )
