i'm still waiting for dark energy to click for me. it's not as frenetic as other footwork stuff?
― flopson, Tuesday, 7 April 2015 22:01 (nine years ago) link
feels like more of a listening than a dancing album, lots of cool drum programming, but doesn't truly groove

its def more head-pleasing, like its made for you to pay attention to the patterns. a lot of it makes me think of dubstep actually, though without ever sounding like shes trying to sound like dubstep. tbh i lost interest in a lot of the stuff by footwork producers that was trying to incorporate other genres (even that made by the original chicago guys), but jlin somehow integrates dubstep-friendly elements in a much smoother, more natural way.

with this track specifically, "dubby" is quite old now, and i am not 100% keen on the other two

that 'Ahhhhhhh' track is sweet. have a hard time with this stuff, a lot of it sounds pretty raw, w/excess, like trigger happy samples/percussion and questionable flows.. i like how machinedrum has a more easily digestible, almost like, bibio/post rock take on the music. the jlin dark energey stuff sounds well focused.

So what have been the best juke/footwork releases this year? I've not really been keeping up
I have been loving Jlin's stuff though. The new EP is sick

Thanks in no small part to the Jlin and Paypal albums from 2015, my footwork passion has been reignited. Also interested int he Lisbon 'Batida' style and whatever it is Clap! Clap! is all about. Think these all inhabit a similar area of broken sample-based rhythms. Might it be worth starting a new rolling thread for this stuff (the title of this one is a bit old-fashioned now, right?)
