http://www.aggressiveart.org/aof_files/interviews/aof_interview_extra1.htmHeh Green himself doesn't like Provision. Provision is probably one of my fave Scritti albums. He says it's too sterile, then something about what I always suspected, how it's MIDIed pretty much to the hilt. But that's what I always liked about it.MIDI meant that, you know, you could have two sixteenth notes here played by something that sounded very different from the next two sixteenth notes and you could have little - The whole thing was like a pointillist painting, you know, to use another bad painting analogy. But if the subject of your painting, if your...or you're IN, whatever, if your root is not...You know, I think 'Provision' may have had...You know, it was expensively articulated but it had nothing to say. And that was partly by design, but partly by lack of - It should have had nothing to say in a more beautiful way.but then I like soulless precise music like Uzeb and so forth so that's hardly surprising.I've finally given Anomie & Bonhomie a good listen, and i like the first 5-6 songs on it, and I like the tracks with Mos Def and his friends. One I'm going to try to learn for open mic nights... we shall see but it is sugary ear candy which is kind of what I like.LOL Green said he got back into playing the guitar that he had abandoned as the "fetishized object of rock'n'roll" (which is actually an EXCELLENT way of describing how I cringe from hearing Nickelback, or anyone going on about how music ended with the Beatles) from hearing music that was in skateboarding videos. LOL how random is that?
