soft sad techno

i like blindhouse enough but that one is pure sweetness in a sad way

i cant think of any letters in russian that look like an "R", there is a "ß" but thats backwards.

Phantom Ghost - Nothing Is Written (Tobias Thomas & Superpitcher Mix)
Raz O'Hara - This' A Beautiful Day (Mathias Schaffhauser Mix)
Quarks - Du Entkommst Mir Nicht (Lawrence Remix)
Chelonis R. Jones - I Don't Know
RJ Project - What Colour Is Love (Red Jerry's Monkeyhouse Mix)
Alexander Kowalski - Lock Me Up (Sascha Funke Mix)
Dennis Desantis - Promotion of Vice (Alexander Kowalski Mix)
Carsten Jost - Uccellini
Gus Gus - Remembrance (neuromantic avant la lettre)

: )

Extrawelt - Zu Fuss
Miss Kittin - Happy Violentine
Plastikman - I Don't Know
Villalobos - Easy Lee

Laurent Garnier - Go To Sleep
GusGus - Detention

Ah, don't cry little robot boy, everything is going to be alright once we reboot your mom. :(

YESSS!!!

Alex Smoke - I Don't See The Point

in fact Slam's Nightdrive cd1 is 77 minutes worth of this stuff (okay I'll stop mentioning that thing now.)

nice and slow

And a really good and slightly different one, like italo-rock-techno

Jennygoesdirty-Amoreux Solitaires (Aswefall Mix)

You'll have to think of her while you listen tearfully...

Anyway wanted to add:

Light In Darkness - YMO
Computerlove - Kraftwerk
Desire - 69
Electric Bedroom - Alter Ego
These Days - Petter

There was also a track on Movin' Melodies from 1995 that from memory had a very sad anthemic melody over a kind of HiNRG rhythm but I don't know its name...

HI FREAK... HI FREAKS

hi freaks; HI

I liked most of the Kiasmos album ok, but when things pick up near the end it gets rather messy and unnecesary loud imo, that was a bit of a let down. It's nice, but nowhere near as good as Lawrence or Pantha du Prince.

Agree Kiasmos gets a bit too loud too soon - I actually like the later tracks a lot, I would just have preferred the more relaxed atmosphere to last a little longer #chilloutroom4lyfe

Tried some Lawrence but it just doesn't emotionally engage me at all.

I can only think that you are listening to the wrong Lawrence ...

I started to dive into Lawrence but grooveshark locked up and broke my browser so I'll queue it up again. I was really enjoying it (maybe one track before it quit)!!

i checked out a bunch on youtube and felt the same as ledge, it's really nice but felt a little too slick or hotel lounge-y for me.

i often don't understand what you are looking for in electronic music, J

anyway "the night will last forever" is one of my favorite winter albums

i just have a real weird relationship with four-on-the-floor dance music, i don't listen to much of it. lush & pretty is good, but the stuff that really clicks tends to feel 'raw' and tactile in some way.

Lawrence is so good in the winter.

maybe it's the house basslines that undercut the staring-off-into-the-distance vibes for me

Roman Flügel - Planet Zorg.

The title somehow doesn't suit this track.

Roman Flügel's whole album is a treat, hadn't heard it till last week, addicted now.

I don’t know if this is the right thread for this kind of thing... but this Boreal track is all I want to listen to right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMNlCYLDkhE

"the red line" is literally the best dub techno track ever

yes it is

the like/dislike ratio on that red line YT is impossible

Ric y Martin, “Teiwass”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzN_bCXSQV0

it’s always so good when Ricardo’s latent Depecheness emerges so explicitly like this

sorry for consecutive postings but this Dandy Jack / Sonja Moonear track is wonderfully forlorn dusky street lamp vibes

I...really don't get the "soft" or "sad" from the Dandy Jack track. At all.

this track is for me the definition of soft, sad techno.

it sounds very melancholy to me in a wistful, pensive, James Stinson interstate truck driving at night kind of way but whatever I’m heavily depressed so

maybe not so soft but i hear the melancholy in it for sure. the synth lead does fade in and out like street lamps floating by on a highway

how about this one, "Niji" by Denki Groove

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqT8t6OSNrM

very Orbital-esque, almost like a direct sequel to "Halycon". it's one of their most popular tracks though amusingly enough they never did anything like it again
