"I Feel Love" with a motorik beat + fuzz guitars? this is glorious

yessss

The vid's rip doesn't really do it justice. On my copy the drums are so big. Caveman style.

15-60-75 - Animal Speaks (????? might only be motorik in my memory)

so good

oh ok wow

songs with a "motorik" beat that aren't by either Neu! or Stereolab

Not entirely Stereolab-free tbh.

That is a really excellent band and this song is amazing!

Tried it (on) here:

That Motorik Beat

Glad this image is still up here. I think about it a lot.

Me too! Sadly I moved out of that flat and even though we've done up the bathroom in the new place I wasn't allowed to make it motorik ;_;

k-x-p with the muscular biz

Chrisma, "C Rock". Not sure this has a motorik beat as such but is nonetheless a Neu! ripoff blatant enough to make Stereolab blush.

clean-related, here's one of my absolute favorite david kilgour jams with the heavy eights, "waveboarder," a total surf motorik cruiser.

and to reiterate something i posted years ago, the clean's vehicle is, with the exception of the 2 side-ending acoustic tracks, straight motorik joy.

replacing a dead link from a few years ago:

blizzard, "keep a knockin'/get back/etc."

Great call on that David Kilgour album, my absolute favorite from him precisely because of that motorik groove!

Pulls on to the autobahn nearly three minutes in but then you get those Rother wakka wakkas so you know it's proper, and when the alternating Battlestar Galactica riffs hit you must salute.

help me find a thread for this but debut album Fugue State (2022) by Swedish "ambient blues" outfit Weils is simply fantastic, album opener "To Apeiron" 23 minutes of slow-motorik bliss:

excellent, extremely my kind of thing

Lewsberg are a band from Rotterdam whose sound alternates between early VU and spaced-out motorik jams and somehow never sound like "What Goes On":

Heh, mebbe that yin is a wee bit reminiscent of “The Gift.”

Corrs - thanks for that Weils heads-up. Extremely my thing!

Metabolist 'Alien on Sunday' - beautifully minimalist take on the beat, no fills, no flourishes
