Yeah, Senni was actually broke for most of the time he was creating this type of music and running his own label. Being so persistent in spite of his music being labeled like this or like that (but actually minimalistic and fresh, with beautiful ornamentations), is really inspiring. Him becoming big enough to be picked up by Warp records, was just the tip of the iceberg at that point in his music making career. He was already a fully formed and respected guy in the electronic music scene.
Lorenzo Senni's synthesis work is more than a preset though isnt it. Thought he had quite a bit of mastery of his JP8080 and uses some great subtle modulation. I assume he's talking about his pre-WARP stuff, because after that he has more complex arrangements
@@TRaddcliff it matters if you want to describe someone's music and process accurately. I think it's worth noting. But yes the point of art not needing to be "difficult" to be good i agree with and that's the main takeaway. Just saying there's a bit more to lorenzo senni's music that's all
@@ritedI could care less what goes into it. I hate when people post what they use to make music or give it some long winded description. Don’t care. All that matters to me is does it click with me. He may have been using descriptors others have used to describe Senni’s music to illustrate the point. Who cares. You like or you don’t
@@rited not really cuz they don’t tell me how they do it. Let me clarify a little. There’s a difference when someone is asked how they did something vs someone who posts a track with full descrip of what was used. That descrip is a way of selling the music. Rather than listen to it for what is, it gets listened to for what was used. Introducing a bias to how you hear it. It could go both ways. You may like or dislike some gear and that will influence how you hear it.
Yes, low effort has nothing to do with personal taste. But its also shitty when marketing is taken for the actual attributes of a piece. Y'know? Sometimes the piece is not necessarily that good or iconic, its just well marketed. You shouldn't confuse marketing zeitgeist with your own taste. Not to say they cant agree either. AND i also understand that in the end that's kinda what many arts are in a nutshell: marketing zeitgeist (physical distribution power) that gets adopted by people. Half money, half love.
No shit dude. I suck super bad. Wasn’t trying to sound like anything, just how it turned out. But I agree…ain’t gonna happen. Thanks for pointing it out tho 👍🏿 I don’t set out to make anything, I just goof around and record it. I don’t know how to make actual tracks either…just the loop I post. I’m no musician by any stretch. I don’t wanna be anyone/anything. That’s fucking lame. I just want to like one thing I do before I die. You should hear the shit I don’t post 🤮
@@goldenfurniture123 Hey man, thanks again for thinking I'm trying to sound like AFX, I appreciate that. I'm just trying to not sound like shit. Havent achieved that goal to date.
Yes, once you start evaluating music by the complexity of the composition instead of enjoying it as it is, you're just distancing yourself of the sincere experience of listening to music. You either feel it or don't and that's it
I know a fair few oft these are sort of remixes of known boc tracks, but for the other sounds - imagine it is a glimpse into their unreleased catalogue. Gives me hope for more music ONE DAY! One can only hope (sigh)
All sounds are loops from past websites in order of when they were live. Going back to their first website. I wouldn’t say remixes, so much as looped samples. Some from released stuff, some not.
While effort is hugely correlated with sounding good, it is not necessarily causally integrated with the making process itself. You still have to get off your ass
