he gets laid more often than Aphex Twin

i don't know who those people are

those pic links dont work for me baja

ok they do now

dude in plaid = Markus Popp, from Oval
bald dude = Hans-Joachim Roedelius, from Cluster

(your pics don't work for me either, just so y'know)

both of whom get laid more often than the Aphex Twin.

um. they work for me but only if i click on the address bar and hit "enter"

if i had to judge from that photo i'd say markus popp gets laid exactly never.

morelike anal-ize, amirite?

all of the little phrases this board uses are so cute.

The answer to this question is nerds.

And that's not a knock.

I want to be where the BoC are in that picture, right now.

Outdoors clothes/countryside pictures are always cool. Obv there is a sense of dichotomy being played with there: futuristic/natural etc. The continuing notion of folktronica I suppose. BoC like to hide their faces a lot. Autechre dude on the right is looking into the future, dude on the left is looking at you i.e. the now. I wd like to go walking with these guys and just hang out, like. The Autechre picture is about roots. The BoC pic is about margins or borders.

Wow he was hot as a young man.

LL Cool K

So those huge machines that make us think retro wd be signifying the PHUTURE in the early 50s when that was taken. And Karlheinz looking out into it again. I think Aaron Funk might be skitting the "look into the future" pose. His zebra and starfish are cutely surrealist tho.

Actually I think the photo's from 1964... which would be "Telemusik", NHK Studios, Tokyo... guessing here

Mixmaster Morris:

How old is this guy btw? The above pic is presumably a newish one, but I remember seeing pics of him in 1993 or 1994 where he already looked old.

Okay, according to Wikipedia he was born in 1960, so I guess at 33 he would've looked old to the 14-year old me.

young stockhausen: i would totally hit it

today i realised that i'm a geek.
loving these photos on the thread despite not knowing most people pictured.
also this is probably the reason why the latest Thomas Dolby live DVD is just so great.
one of the extras is Thomas giving a tour/explanation of the kit he has used for his recent tour.
gadget overload.

so, here's another ..

I love that fact that I know these people's work, but I have no idea who they are from looking at them.

(expect rodelius, I met him after a concert once, nice man... Is black dude w. hat Carl Craig?)

(sorry i'm not doing any analyzing, just posting)

black dude w/ hat is dj spooky

am0n FTW

Autechre dude on the right is looking into the future, dude on the left is looking at you i.e. the now. I wd like to go walking with these guys and just hang out, like. The Autechre picture is about roots.

nicely done

that mixmaster morris pic is frightening. i had no idea he was so old

Whatever happened to Oval?

i don't know why but i am comforted by the fact that Mixmaster Morris hasn't given up the drugged out early 90s hippie-futurism schtick. <3

Whatever happened to Oval?

The machine fetish pics are always a little bit like the archetypal guitarist's pose with his weapon pushed into the camera, but at the same time Jelinek and Micronauts guy are slightly consumed or enwombed by their gear. Is that really what Basinski looks like? Not at all how I'd imagined him. I like that he's looking slightly bemused by the box in front of him like "WTF do I do with this?"

Maybe with the guys pictured without instruments there is some slight suggestion that the music, or their essence as music-makers, is outside of the actual machines themselves. Like primarily their music is a Platonic Form that happily exists prior to making or recording it.

I like this thread. They are mostly good portraits, all else aside. I've wallpapered the Stockhausen.

lol doing something dirty and primitive in a cave. Nice colours. Jon is looking into the future or playing video games. What do hand scrawls say? "BAD"? "Phiend"?

"ban"?

Anyway, young Stockhausen, o_O!!! HA CHA CHA

These are the three promo pics that came with the new Pole album, Steingarten. They're kinda weird, I've always thought of Pole as a very urban-sounding artist. I guess Steingarten has a bit more "natural" sound to it that his previous LPs though.

It's a pity Photobucket doesn't allow me to post bigger versions of the pics, but I can tell you he looks quite happy or bemused in the last two.

Also re: the first Murcof picture. He looks like a combination of a young Fidel Castro and Suge Knight.

Superpitcher http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:G48DwCBz0SDoHM:http://www.resonatormag.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/superpitcher.jpg
It's too bad I don't have any good photos of myself on my computer, because Superpitcher and I have a tendency for dogglegangerism.

DAmn, picture doesn't seem to be posting, well it's this and the two pictures don't even look as much alike as I once thought, so whatever.

Oh for chirssakes, nevermind.

Tom D: that Silver Apples picture! Really beautiful!

compare & contrast w/mayer, now there's a smug looking rictus.

Kind of interesting you should mention that, because When I saw Theo Parrish DJ in the summer, I found him to be exactly like Michael Mayer, who I saw like a month before.

I'd never heard him DJ beforehand, or otherwise really, so correct me for an shortsightedness, but he mixed just like him, doing really quick 4-16 bar fades and just working the knobs for the 8 or so minutes in between. Also, the records also kept skipping, to which Theo kept making these absolutely great ridiculous faces like he had bit into a lemon or something. Interestingly enough, more or less the same thing was the case when I saw Michael Mayer, just without the funny faces, but they seemed to take the same attitude to DJ'ing.

That's my unnecessary anecdote.

i kind of hate how handsome matthew dear is.

Villalobos looks like Adrian Brody in the beach shot. If those are in Chile then they are presumably taken in the Atacama, home of totally radical telescopes and lagoons: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atacama_Desert

yea i was wondering if it was the atacama. i just didn't see any water when i was there. but i think there might be other places in chile/atacama that look more like the villalobos photo.

he does look like adrian brody in that photo.

Hmmm. Yeah, maybe. It does have a coast and lakes though: http://www.atacamaphoto.com/atacama/atacama-6.htm

you're right. those photos are amazing, btw.

i don't know what i was thinking... i even went to a coastal town! (iquique).
