replies: text: I added him to the new Glitch Hop section because he's also influential there. Though he's not just doing glitch hop but also glitch in general so he (amongst others) should be featured as well somewhere else in the article. What about a "Artists commonly associated with Glitch"-section? --Fixuture (talk) 14:56, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

text: In my opinion, none of them are glitch at all! Glitch is stuff like Nobukazu Takemura's Scope or especially Oval - stuff which sounds like malfunctioning equipment, what with skipping samples, wobbly ambient-like sounds, etc. The aim of glitch music was initially a somewhat deconstructive effort involving the radical "remixing" of various sources into something utterly irrecognisable which, precisely, sounds like a skipping CD. Also, traditional glitch has the tendance to avoid drum machines and synthesizers, working only with samples, and with an enormous focus on the way in which digital audio works, and the way that digital audio processing devices are, and their byproducts, faults, eventualities, etc (i.e. glitches.) After that, some people imitated the technique without the theorical back-up, and even made variations which overlap with techno, etc. However, Autechre and Aphex Twin come from a techno background which has nothing to do with this (and actually predates Oval by some years - Systemisch has been confirmed to be made mostly out of samples from AFX's SAW II! Listen to the track "Compact Disc" - it's quite recognisably Aphex Twin's "Radiator"), and Squarepusher comes from a jazz and jungle background, so I don't think any of them are glitch at all! That's why I had deleted them... I'm sorry about not asking!
About Venetian Snares, some of their work definitely resembles a cd skipping ("Unborn Baby" anyone?), but probably not enough to warrant a mention here.  Probably; I've not heard all his work. Ours18 15:33, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not an experienced Wikipedia editor so don't think I'd be up to the job but I couldn't help but notice there's no mention of the Glitch Mob, the glitch-hop collective, or indeed an article on them. Would anyone be interested in writing one?
The problem is we have no page for Glitch-Hop. The Glitch-hop link under artist pages links to this page, which I think is inaccurate. I'm trying to right a page for Glitch-hop but I'm not the best at wiki markup. I'm not sure if other people are able to edit others drafts but if they can then I would love some help. The address for the draft is http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Glitch-Hop&oldid=567354870  — Preceding unsigned comment added by FryMonkey237 (talk • contribs) 19:51, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Glitch Mob 

message: I believe the following excerpt that was previously located on the article page to be original research:
The Glitch and Shoegaze Overlap
Some artists have mixed the occasionally harsh noise aspects of glitch with what is often referred to as shoegazer music. Artists on labels such as Morr Music fall into this category and maintain a focus on IDM beats and pop rock melodies and song structures. The two-disc Morr Music compilation Blue Skied an' Clear is a perfect introduction to this stylistic overlap; the shoegazer band Slowdive has its songs reworked by Morr artists on the first disc.
The overlap between glitch and shoegazer music also includes some artists that have moved away from the song structures and defined beats mentioned above, favouring more ambient forms. The general shoegazer style of pop rock melodies buried under layers of reverberation and distortion is combined with the precise programming capabilities of digital signal processing. Televise (ex slowdive member Simon Scott), Fennesz and Tim Hecker are three notable artists that have received critical praise for their compositions done in this style. The looped constructions of lovesliescrushing, from about 1992, demonstrated a pre-glitch sound. Later, in 2000, the band ventured into the computer realm by translating their signature four track guitar damage into an iMac to produce glissceule and voirshn, dubbed glitch bliss.  The duo Belong has also released music of this nature. In addition to comparing them to other ambient or electronic musicians, reviewers and fans also tend to mention the similarities to My Bloody Valentine (arguably the most highly regarded band of the early 1990s shoegazer movement). The primary point of similarity is the emphasis placed on the texture of the music; it appears to play as important a role as the melodies themselves. Also, see Labradford, The Night Owl Cafe Killers, or Little Glitches for similarly ambient/glitch sounds. Japanese artist World's End Girlfriend often combines glitch beats with elements of Post-Rock music.

thread_title:  Is Glitch also known as Glitch Hop? 

message: If anyone wants to delete my edit of Kid 606 as glitch you have to give me a really good reason. Is it because you feel he's not so notable? His article is roughly the same size as that of Oval's; about 5 KB's. Is it because you feel he's not glitch? Every article on the web about him references him as glitch or lumps him with other artists that obviously are glitch. What's the deal? Check out the references. Gaahh... Lighthead...KILLS!! 20:50, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kid 606 is notable and he is glitch. 

message: Glitch-hop is a new electronic music genre that is distinct from Glitch. The glitch-hop link under genre tab for glitch-hop producers links to the glitch page. There used to be a mention of glitch-hop on this page under the sub-genre category and now even that has been removed. This is comparable to having a link for Heavy-metal send viewers to the page for psychedelic rock. At least I think the Glitch-hop link should link to "this page does not exist page" since no page for Glitch-hop actually exists. I'm not familiar with editing wikipedia but I will try my best to figure this out. I would really appreciate any help.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.216.242.119 (talk) 03:06, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Very much agree. Just added a subsection for it. Really wondering why the heck there was there no article / subsection for it by now (I mean it's a relatively large genre and you'd think people knowledgable of glitch know how to use the net/wp). Btw if anybody wants to improve it there's also a french article on it: :fr:Glitch-hop. --Fixuture (talk) 15:01, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
