Re: Ladytron
They're good, but honestly way too produced. It's the same problem I have with Garbage, good ideas, great singer, and way too produced, to the point to where it sounds as clinically perfect as Nsync. Some like than level of detail, and while I appreciate it, I like the the less produced or messier productions. Goldfrapp have no built in limitations, for instance Ladytron always have some analog sounds in any song they do really (Korg MS-20 on everything), while Goldfrapp are definitely 'kitchen sink' producers.earthloop wrote:One word: GOLDFRAPP!
Alison Goldfrapp is the queen of electro pop! With Will Gregory she produces the most amazing music. She is a stunning singer ... a class above all these pretenders! I know because I have seen her live and she is even better live than in her recordings (I must also mention the band too: excellent!!!)
Am I a fan? Oh YESSSS!
Not saying that Any of these groups are bad though, I like Goldfrapp. I'm a fan of girl electro, probably why I use a girl for the vocal stuff myself.
Re: Ladytron
yeah i really like them.
unfortunately when i went to see them live the sound engineer murdered their mix. the bass was just a garbled out of control mess....totally ruined it.
it was at a festival and it would have been hard to pull a good mix initially considering the amount of synths on stage and no soundcheck but it was still a dogs breakfast 5 songs in
