    Profoundly ignorant. Plus you can't resist allowing PE's fantasy racism to be an original thought, it has to be "clearly influenced" by punk.

    you are still my favorite on the op-1, I wish you would make more videos though

    Thanks, Koba. It’s in for repairs, so I’m focused on the MPC for now.

    what broke on the op?

    the mpcl is monster I love that thing

    The UI board needed replacing, and since the thing is 5 yrs old, I took the opportunity and had the battery replaced.

    damn, it didn't cost as much as a new op?

    The stupidity of anyone raging against people purely based on skin colour seems to have bypassed Public Enemy and co. It’s a million miles from what MLK preached. Hatred only breeds more hatred.

    Not sure your punk influence argument stands up, either. Sure, they challenged corrupted authority and pointless tradition, but did not glorify crime, drugs, or violence against women. So if that is really where Gangstas got thier ideas, then they misunderstood.

    Quantifiably false statement about PE. PE is decidedly pro-black, in terms of economic self-sufficiency and positive community action to improve the quality of life for African-Americans, but they were NOT raging against skin color. That’s a remark borne of ignorance, which breeds fear, then hostility. Listen CLOSELY, if you can, to the whole song.

    He’s right. I don’t think you understand the genre or the music as well as you think you do. I wonder if you’d reconsider making such sweeping statements? I’m really not saying that to be a dick, I just think you’ve misunderstood certain things.

    that's crazyyyy, I thought I was going to be able to resist the op, due to the digitakt but I'm finding that is not the case. I know I'm not going to get a new one though and was holding off cause they're getting a bit long in the tooth now, but if this is what it cost to repair one after 5 years ffs that's a good deal. I thought they would surely fleece you. I replaced the innards of my asr10 once and they tried to steal my soul it was nuts.

    There will never be an OP-2.

  • kobamotokobamoto

    I don't think so either... was talking to the devs and they visually cringe at the request of a few more sample editing tools...I don't think they even want to make an op-2 no matter how successful it would be, their on their own sh*t thats' cool. I'm gonna have to find a used one at a good price. I'm trying to get a mellotron and it's taking forever to get there

    Enjoying using the one I have here. I can think of lots of other things I’d rather spend £800 on though.

    Not that shocked about the 5 year thing - iPads are nearly as much, a lot more including apps, and are pretty useless after 5 years.

    OP1’s are a bit like VW campers though, they just keep going up in price.

    This. A lot of early hip-hop was about the plight of minorities and life in the ghetto, but a lot of it was about having a good time and forgetting your troubles, too.

But when Kanye repackages it, 15 years later, it’s “groundbreaking”.

    Squarepusher especially was heavily influenced by these cats, lot of hip hop heads were into drum and bass, one of dnb's biggest influences was hip hop.

    This the correct way to do it. I'm wrong and I responded emotionally. It does not good to yell at someone that they're wrong about something, seizing the high ground and acting superior. I apologize. It's not the way to foster understanding.

    No problem with listening to PE. I certainly believe that a lot of tracks are really powerful from the energy side. And this I also refered to as a came up with the comparison with punk. For me it has the same type of rage.

    The be honest, I could be mistaken about the deeper goals of PE and what they did for the black community, but one line from Fight the Power:
    Elvis was a hero to most but he
    never meant shit to me. You see
    Straight up racist that sucker was simple and plain
    Motherfuck him and John Wayne

    What you think of Elvis is one thing, but he certainly wasn't a racist, although there are many fake rumors of so called racist remarks including the infamous 'Shine my shoes' they have all been debunked as fake. Next to that he credited black artists. Besides that he had many black friends that he treated at that time as equals which was special especially in the part the US where he was living.
    So you could turn it around and say what is PE saying about the white boy Elvis...

    As for punk and violence. Punk had a lot of sides, one was left wing political (example Crass), another was right wing racist (Nazi punks), besides you had fun punkbands (Lurkers) and of course there were de Sex Pistols themselves who invited Ronnie Biggs after Vicious commited the glorious act of suicide. So you certainly cannot say it was critique on society in punk rock.

    I feel the same kind of energy in recording of Sex Pistols and Dead Kennedy's as in Public Enemy. So hence I see clearly a punk influence. Furthermore I see this not as a problem. My point is. Everybody is inspired by something nowadays. And in the music industry there are clear rules, when you talk about plagiarize you go to court and win or loose. This whole cultural appropriation thing just goes beyond me.

    :D no way brother, the digitakt is staying til my dying days for sure, because of the digi I have no wish for an octatrack or rytm anymore....it's just the right amount of elektron in the right spot. What I meant was that it doesn't feel like the op-1 and I thought I was going to be able to get on by but this is not the case, my needs are like. puzzle and the op-1 will fit right in place.

    I've seen every Elvis movie 50 times, had every Elvis record, also had every P.E. record
    also seen every John Wayne movie over and over as well as every single Clint Eastwood movie on constant repeat
    maybe they are all racist but I've still enjoyed their art.... what does chuck D. have in common with Louis Farrakhan?
    I do believe that people can change, and I have distinctly seen a change in chuck d over the years. Professor griff racist?... I think so.... ymmv

    Yet, PE did feel the need to call two of the most famous, iconic white Americans racists, in ‘Fight the Power.’ Not sure what was going on there.

    ...Sex Pistols themselves who invited Ronnie Biggs after Vicious commited the glorious act of suicide. So you certainly cannot say it was critique on society in punk rock.

    >

    By that time, Biggs had long been revealed as the ‘tea boy’ of the Great Train Robbery, not the mastermind. A kind of reverse folk hero, for having escaped justice. While ‘No One is Innocent’ was mostly a publicity stunt, Punk critiquing society definitely happened, with several bands. Just a few songs that instantly spring to mind are:

    Babylon’s Burning - The Ruts
    God Save the Queen - The Sex Pistols
    Complete Control - The Clash
    California Uber Alles - The Dead Kennedy’s
    Shot by Both Sides - Magazine
    Sound of the Suburbs - The Members
