How to put it, I wouldn’t know... I can’t find the words... let’s say... a rough draft.

Mustard, I didn't say it sucks, it’s just out of style. But still, Tangerine Dream, as I said above, but after 90 posts, it's good to reiterate: it's just one example among the tons of similar stuff from that period, you know. There was already Czukay who, before Can and before this album, had made quite a bit of work merging electronics and various percussions that can also be found here, there was already Shulze, (K)Cluster and others. I just find it to be one of the many albums from that time and that area, as I've already told you 80 times, but I like to repeat it to be annoying, and it’s certainly the worst one that came out.

But indeed Scanio & Calderoli are two highly comparable people, both "Italian politicians". Just as Tangerine & Organisation are highly comparable, both "electronic experimenters of German ambient-pseudonoise". Where exactly is all this difference between the very early Tangerine and Organisation? If you tell me that later Tangerine ended up in a bit too ambient and stretched-out territory to be comparable, fine, that Alpha Centauri is different, okay, but we are talking about the two albums released within a few months, Electronic Meditation & Abbozz Float, not discographies against discographies. Also, the Organisation only did this, which is a half-assed piece of work, or if you prefer, a sketch. You are the only one in the world who defends this album of "sketch-electro-experimental-sausag e noise & kraut-70". And then the mustard, come on, it's an out-of-fashion sauce.

<< in THIS DISK the ideas could have been as clear as those of the TD.>> and you see that then the comparison makes sense, right? Before they were completely different and incomparable, as if we were talking about B.B. King vs Massive Attack; now, however, the ideas of one could have been as clear as those of the other. See? You change your mind with every post, I at least limit myself to once a year.

40 to 37 for me. And with this 41. Double hit early in the morning, ò-ùh.

But you see that you take an example and change it? The issue is Organisation-Tangerine Dream, not Kraft-Tangerine. That Kraft have nothing to do with Tangerine is obvious; here we are talking about Organisation. This is a record by Organisation, not by Kraftwerk. Everything started from there, from a nice two for this draft, and a nice one for this rec that takes a record by Organisation as one of Kraftwerk, just because in the reissue the record label added the name Kraftwerk to sell it. And it’s clear that the discography to burn because you like it is a joke; I’ve told you ten times that I had the discography on cassette and I even converted it to CD... eh. However, this is just a draft, and it is a record by Organisation, very similar in style to Tangerine, completely different from a Kraftwerk record.

I never saw him live due to technical impossibilities; he was gone when I was little. The highlight, in my opinion between '69 and '75-'76, but I don't think it's a very objective view, given that he himself said that it was an experimental period where he wasn't quite sure what he wanted, and he """needed""" (lots of quotes) to surround himself with young and fresh minds. However, it resonates with me three times more than the other periods, for reasons of affinity with the proposed genre.

Metallà, if you're a good boy, I'll let you in on a secret. Alright, I'll tell you anyway: with those cheap browsers, there's no longer a limit on messages, and you can send up to 15,000 characters. But don't tell anyone.

And then I'm wary of islanders, I met one once and he was a nasty piece of work, just like you with the bandana...

Enea, but obviously that’s what I wanted: a beautiful string of bullshit. Of course, it slipped out of my hands because there wasn’t any bullshit to start with, since you’re too grounded; there’s no fun playing with you in your reviews, you care about keeping them clean. I also lost track of time, since I’m still in the office catching up on today’s nonsense. Then, about changing my mind: I reiterate for the umpteenth time, I haven’t changed my mind, I just discovered that what I thought was the best of Kraftwerk wasn’t by Kraftwerk. I gave you the example of Plastikman, and I’ll give it to you again. Plastikman, if he only did stuff under the name Richie Hawtin, I’d like it, yes, but if he was called the king of techno, he’d get on my nerves. He doesn’t annoy me because he also does things under Fuse & Plastikman. Therefore, I saw what I considered Side-Project 1-2-3 (Neu! 1, Neu! 2, Neu! 75 "3") as Plastikman or Fuse, and Kraftwerk as Richie Hawtin. Then I discovered that instead, the side project wasn’t a side project, but a schism. So I haven’t changed my mind; I’ve always considered the more extreme and faster things (i.e., the supposed side project) to be better, and I would still give 5 to what I gave 5 to, and I continue to give 5 to what I gave 5 to, but now they annoy me even if I give them 5, and I still prefer the "side project," even if it’s now called Neu!, and no longer Side Project. You disappoint me Enea, I’ve written it 90 times including examples, and you insist on this change of mind. I haven’t changed my mind; I’ve only changed my sympathy for Gianni & Pinotto, but the musical idea remains the same. If you want a change of mind – and I have tons of changes of mind every month, not just once a year, I wish the changes of mind were so few – I’ll give it to you, but this isn’t the case: I had a change of mind about Neu! 2. For years I considered it a low-profile work because having my ears full of modern Techno at that time, I saw proto-techno as flat. Then, when someone told me: What the hell do you expect from a record from '73? I had yet another galactic epiphany that I was a fool, and now I consider it the best of the three. That’s a change of mind, not what you’re saying. A change of sympathy happens very often, see Ozzy Osbourne; I’ve always idolized him since I was a child, even if his solo records made and still make me sick, he remained The Prince Of Darkness. Then he did that thing on MTV, and he became a fool. The fact remains that with Sabbath he was a prince, even if he annoys me. This is a change of sympathy, while keeping the musical idea intact. Do you want an example of music that annoys me but I don’t judge as crap? Classical music. Undoubtedly of great value, but after two minutes of such heavenly acoustic melodies, I get sleepy. It annoys me, but I never say “bah,” I believe I haven’t even commented on one of the reviews on de-b. Then, yes, if I’m asked like you did last time and it gets on my nerves, I’ll tell you; it’s not a crime. However, the fact remains that I’ve never changed my mind about Kraftwerk as you say. This has always disgusted me; the first three are this and that – even if I prefer to listen to the first three of those that came after because I prefer the proposed genre – and the others laid the foundations for so much stuff that came after. Even though I prefer the stuff that came after from other places, and that I prefer Squarepusher to Depeche Mode is something decided by higher authorities. So, I haven’t changed my mind. And this record is just a draft. And now clarity has been achieved. Anyway, if you look carefully, I discovered that I had already written the story about the Neu! CDs, but I won’t give you the link since you didn’t take the time to write the review; now you waste time reading this entire tedious comment and waste time finding the link. A fair exchange, and salami for fontina.
