Glenn Wilson - new sound.

**eyes without a face** · 11-07-2005, 10:11 PM

i agree

i got into hard techno thru Glenn's work and ive not gotten into a single artists work so much since, certainly not in the hard techno domain anyway, which is alot different now to when i first started digging it

sounds a lot housey to me especially with the female vocals, which isn't a bad thing. for it to be revolutionary he's have to start doing something new, Glenn's stuff still doesn't have interesting percussion - it doesn't have to be off-beat but he could do with some of the range shown by lables like Hydraulix, Highball, Nerven, Hörspielmusik, Kiddaz...

you are joking, right?

**The Overfiend** · 12-07-2005, 02:45 AM

He's all jokes apparently.

**The Overfiend** · 12-07-2005, 05:57 AM

Bottom line is that I see the point Mark is trying to make, which is does not anyone see Glenn breaking his own mold. Regardless of his past material, which is still hotter than most peoples catalogues. He is coming with it and pushing himself in a different manner, whilst still being himself. He's a stand up guy, and is very pedal to the metal. I got the utmost respect for him and his new approach. Recognize the real.

**eyes without a face** · 12-07-2005, 08:41 AM

why would i be joking?

when i got into hard techno there was no one like Wittekind, Amok etc etc about, i got into hard techno years before anyone like that came along and to me hard techno is different now to when i first picked up a Wilson record about 7 years ago

no one's saying they dont get Mark's point, just not everyone agrees with it, which is allowed isnt it?

in terms of musical presentation and forward thinking there are others pusing the boundaries ahead of Glenn as it were, he's a ****in awesome producer but does he need us to all tell him everyday on here? i think not, we all appreciate his work and love it, which is the point surely? il keep buying Glenn's records regardless of wether i think they are chaning techno or not

Good statement!

**slavestudios** · 12-07-2005, 12:34 PM

actually, i think there are a lot better producers than Wilson.

i used to dig his heavy work, but like so many, the more releases, the softer the edge...

jus like Ignition Technician...

i used to love Planet Rhythm & Template, but after a while they all softened & seemed to jus meldinto one genreic loops sound.

maybe his new work is something else, but for the last 3 years, every 12 has just been a loop with a break.

what about some links to this 'new sound' ?

**slavestudios** · 12-07-2005, 12:37 PM

i'm suprised at eyes being such a fan..

Wilson, while skilled, is easily outdone by many producers imo

and i'm sorry, but this is nfact..

glen is a nightmare to book. misses something like 4 out of every 10 shows ?

sorry. not on.

**MARKEG** · 12-07-2005, 01:32 PM

well, everyone's well entitled to their own opinion, that's what we're all here for.

but nope, i'm sticking to mine. and eyes, i certainly didn't make this post to tell the geezer how much i like his sound cause i really don't need to lick someone's butt publically. my comments are purely made as an observation of his latest work. take that whatever way you want but to me it's intendend to create a thought provoking discussion. which it's done.

job done ;)

**eyes without a face** · 12-07-2005, 05:47 PM

haha it wasnt aimed at you Mark dont worry, i know he's a good friend of yours regardless of your love of his music ... but come on the post was a bit "what do you think of?" then when we gave our opinion it was kinda "well u must have ur head somewhere else then" etc etc, know what i mean? some think its the future, some dont, some are halfway inbetween...

its all rocking so thats what counts surely, tis gravy! :lol: ;)

**dirty_bass** · 12-07-2005, 06:21 PM

The future of techno is more than one man.
A general change of attitude as to what "is" and "isn`t" techno these days would be a start.
In a digital age where we are spoilt for choice of information/entertainment, and our attention spans get shorter. We become more self centred, and it seems to me, as a whole, people (in techno) are focusing in more and more onto one sub sub sub sub genre and latching onto it as their favourite almost personal sound.
DJ sets by up and coming DJ`s seem to be very bland and focused on one level of energy, and one sound (one beat, in some cases).
Truly a more open mind (and ear) is needed to absorb new sounds and methods and to take techno out of it`s increasingly narrow tunnel.

errr

in my opinion, that is. ;)

**eyes without a face** · 12-07-2005, 06:36 PM

only just saw that surprised at eyes being a fan haha

my tastes have changed dramatically since i got into techno, for a few years i was all out hard or nothing, but now its pretty much the other way around as over the course of 7 years ive learnt what else is on offer and what really is me as it were

but i still love hard techno when its done right, both production, dj sets, live sets

Come on I see what's different, I think some of the lot of you are being negative on purpose, and as far as ass sniffing, Glenn and Mark are friends, and I happen to be cool with dude also. If your boy does something different and tries to break thier own mold, and comes with it in the process, you usually tend to give em props for it. Not be snide and get all uptight and say it's good but you didn't bring world peace. Stop with the negative snub shit already, remember the whole one family thing concept that Klien and Burkat were talking about, this is directly related. Might at well kill the baby before it's born then wonder why techno is hurting these days. Everyone is a critic no ones a medic, think about it.

**eyes without a face** · 13-07-2005, 09:03 AM

where the hell is anyone being negative on purpose? we've all pretty much said we absolutely love Glenn's work and there's not a single person who doesnt realise that without Glenn then hard techno probably wouldnt be at the stage it is now

im sure some people on here just read what they want to read at times, really, no one's snubbing him whatsoever in the slightest, if snubbing him is buying copies of his records when they pretty much hit the shops then hey, Glenn, ive been snubbing you for 7 years now man

**The Overfiend** · 13-07-2005, 10:07 AM

you're so vain
you probably think this post is about you
dont you
dont you
dont you.... :roll:
