CyclotronMajesty Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 This guy is amazing. I mean really really amazing... There is not one single individual that compares to the creative potential of Ben Watkins... I really love him very much. A very gifted child of music. I really am grateful for his existence on this earth. Absolutely stunning... ad infinitum np: God is god. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 what happened to Posford? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyclotronMajesty Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Dunno... but this has nothing to do with watkins... in otherwords i don't think one can compare them.... it'sa really really useless comparison... but in throw up between simon and ben i would choose the latter... probably every time..

Bahamut Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 he's great at what he does one of the few artists you can't blame for repeating himself or being unoriginal tell me other 'upbeat electronica' artists where each album and each track are so different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goa-Head Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yes, being the driving force behind the legendary JR, he's one of the top musicians. You can't compare Juno Reactor with say, Simon Posford or Astral Projection. Juno Reactor created lots of different music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time_Trap Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Ya'll have to agree though that Koxbox's remix of FEEL THE UNIVERSE is much better than the original... no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phobium Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 tell me other 'upbeat electronica' artists where each album and each track are so different 555178[/snapback] Oliver Lieb comes to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qa2pir Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Transmissions is amazing... But in the later albums he repeats himself too much. Ok, different tempos, different world musician collaborations... Melodies and feel stay much the same. Nevertheless it's all quite good. IMO!

Otto Matta Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I used to LOVE his shit until he went commercial like Posford. I still love a lot of stuff from his first few albums, and will always prize Transmissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean 'going commercial'? just because of doing some soundtracks for movies?? 555711[/snapback] But don't get me wrong, his music fits those movies very well. It's clearly his destiny. Just that I'm not a big fan of Hollywood music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindphilux Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I enjoy Labyrinth quite a bit. A much more epic sound then previous efforts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
