I don't agree with this, music from then is way too clean, and digital, to be classed as oldskool imo

Think that was the year cdjs hit clubs also, will never class cdjs as oldskool, no matter how out of date they may seem in the future

:D:D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_school

In slang, old school can refer to anything that is from an earlier era, anything that may be considered "old-fashioned". Old school refers to something that is fairly old and not very recent.

In my Opinion 2001 is not very recent, it doesn't matter if it sounds different or made with different tools. it's all about a different era.

Thats true but old school became a common reference to a specific types of music at a specific time with a specific sound for most of us old boys/girls. there are also national issues involved

i ran into similar problems with the word hardcore in the nineties.

Oldtree · 07-01-2013 5:19pm

Agree to disagree on this one Paddy. I still don't think music made on computers, using digital synths etc is "oldskool". In my humble opinion, oldskool music, was made with great hardship using analogue equipment, synths, samplers, drum machines etc. Making music these days, must seem like a doddle in comparison, to producers from that era.

Oldtree · 07-01-2013 5:53pm

it can be difficult to distinguish computer made music as excellent programs like Software Audio Workshop by bob lentini were widely used 1993 onwards. It took ages to use these programs back in the teeny weeny ram days, it works in the blink of an eye now.
Analogue equipment, synths, samplers, drum machines etc could all be sampled or recreated and give the effect of being used from a pc.

Yeah, but a great deal of artists from back then used analogue equipment on a daily basis. I even recall Doc Scott Tweeting about how lucky modern producers are, in comparison to when he was making tracks in the early 90's.

Oldtree · 07-01-2013 6:48pm

You are absolutely correct in that modern producers have it much easier than back in the 90's. I used to really enjoy the new innovations and ideas within the music that producers/artists would come up with back then. However it seems to me that a lot of imagination has sadly been lost, perhaps I would even say that artistry has been lost within the plethora that is modern music.

I think you're dead right there. Modern music (while i do like it btw), lacks that certain something, that oldskool has. Back then the music was constantly changing and evolving, at a very rapid pace (acid house summer of love '88, to drum & bass by the end of '95) and every other genre in between. It was like one giant experiment in sound, that will never be equalled again in my opinion. Modern music is way too clean as well, lacks that "human element", i suppose would be the best way to describe it. Production techniques are far superior today, without a doubt, but i prefer a track that's raw and has character, as opposed to the robotic-like perfection, of today's music.
