it's pretty cool how music can evolve over time...arguably kohncke's original was also a copy in bad taste so now what we have is a reproduction of a reproduction. kind of endemic in dance music ca. 2005.

I know the feeling. My guess: Hall & Oates?
I dunno. I don't find it that shameful since it happens all the time (Daft Punk, Felix da Housecat, supposedly M.A.N.D.Y. too). On the other hand I'll admit I always find it a bit disappointing at first when they rip the hook/punctum of a tune.

Pure reason must never winWe badly need new liesTo guide us across the universeAnd to give us the feast of the worldTo drive us into deliriumAnd to sing us to the most quiet slumber To warn us of the boring truth And to pity our deepest pain To rock us in bamboo-baskets Pure reason must never win
Pure reason must never winWe badly need new liesTo show us the precious of madnessAnd then to bow to usTo crown us to kingsOnly to taunt us secretlyTo hiss in our earsAnd to wipe our eyesTo fight them, who want to help usPure reason must never win
Pure reason must never winWe badly need new liesTo preserve our beautyBut to split us deep insideMuch more: To deconstruct usAnd then to touch us tenderlyTo lead us into darknessTo resign to our willAnd to bend us like soft fencesPure reason must never win
We are so light, we could fly...

i'm too old to start buying new 12 inches. i'd never listen to them. or i'd listen to them once.

CD comps kinda perfect for my active lifestyle.
― scott seward, Monday, 13 June 2016 20:19 (seven years ago) link
i'd say half or less ends up on Total comps (which contain mucho exclusive tracks.. so yeah might as well stick with CDs)
at least buy this, you need the superpitcher remix

i have listened to kompakt on spotify on PS4 before while playing my beloved Resogun. but i can't take too much Spotify sound. makes me cagey.

Made myself a couple of "German" CDs for a holiday - To Rococco Rot, Tarwater, Mouse on Mars, a few tracks from the Dial label and lot of Kompakt. Had forgotten how much joy mid-noughties Kompakt brought me. Must have a catch-up ...
― djh, Saturday, 17 September 2016 19:35 (seven years ago) link

i really enjoyed the hunter_game album.

There's a Michael Mayer collaboration album coming out on XL shortly
― Michael F Gill, Saturday, 17 September 2016 20:37 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, had seen an email from !K7 about that. Features collaborations on every track including Roman Flugel, Prins Thomas, Barnt and one each from Hot Chip and Friendly Fires.
Will probably (re)start with Total 16 and see where that sends me.
Mind you, I'm also tempted to make a home made edition of that RSD Superpitcher compilation, too.
― djh, Saturday, 17 September 2016 21:05 (seven years ago) link
The Mayer album is very mixed; each track stands up or falls over based on who the collaborator is.
― Don Van Gorp, midwest regional VP, marketing (誤訳侮辱), Saturday, 17 September 2016 21:53 (seven years ago) link
Has anyone heard TOTAL 16 yet? It's on Spotify I was listening to it yesterday and there wasn't anything that really caught my attention but there wasn't anything that I found annoying. It sounded pretty good and cohesive to my ears... will need to give it more listens to see what sticks but at first listen it might be one of their better years.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 27 September 2016 01:21 (seven years ago) link
Loving Clarian's Ankh EP. The title track feels more trance than the music suggests with the Logan's Run sample. Like a cross between Balearic Incarnation and My Name is Barbarella..

thankfully I did not read the RA review of the new Gui Boratto album before I heard it.I ordered it to make an amazon order over the requirements for free delivery.turns out that the album is crap according to RA.I beg to differ.yeah, it's not cool, nor cutting edge.it is however, a very enjoyable electronica album.in fact, I have decided to listen to this as a synthwave album. there are a lot of sonic crossovers in the use of sounds and vocals, which is probably why I am enjoying it so much.
― mark e, Thursday, 16 August 2018 20:28 (five years ago) link
It's perfectly fine. Just like the John Tejada album which RA gave an average review to.
