Recommend Sick Mouthy some dance / electronic music that comes in individual tracks / singles, please

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkAoLrII0Pw

Or them, which is about as far from indie friendly dance music as you can get.

"pitch black war funk"

yeh also cut hands, regis, concrete fence, boddika, vatican shadow, russel haswell, raime, peverelist all hitting a similar vibe to the rrose/sandwell district noise + techno thing

Agreed... I find some of that Blackest Ever Black stuff to get a little self-consciously gothy/dark for my tastes and prefer the more abstract "pure techno" vibe of the Sandwell stuff, but it's definitely worth investigating.

On a completely different note: Anton Zap!

No wait that first rip clips all over the place.

Someone else tell Sick Mouthy to listen to Theo Parrish, I need to get some sleep.

I already did ;-)

sorry for gross self-promo bomb, but if you're feeling RRose, you're definitely not alone:

"vocal" by Carly Ptak from Nautical Almanac

er dunno why that is blank, trying again (and, er, sorry)

cosign on that BNJMN recommendation; also Fatima al-Qadiri.

some indie-ish electronic/dance that springs to mind and I don't think have been mentioned):
Gold Panda -- Lucky Shiner (fits nicely in the orbit of The Field, Four Tet, Caribou)
Mount Kimbie -- Crooks & Lovers (not dance at all; sort of Boards of Canada meets a bunch of the UK "bass" music stuff)
Kuedo -- Severant (might be a backdoor to the footwork stuff that dog latin has been raving about, as it's more or less footwork + Vangelis + a certain strain of Southern US hip hop; pick a track at random and you'll be able to tell if you'll like it)

probably easier for a rockist to get into compilations than DJ mixes. the Hyperdub one from '05 might appeal (I definitely think you'd like Darkstar's "Aidys Girl's a Computer"), from this year Shangaan Shake has lots of great people on it that have been mentioned itt

How industrial/new-beaty can we get in our recommendations? Are you interested in stuff like Trust, Apoptygma Berzerk, A Split Second, old-skool Lords of Acid, VNV Nation, Poesie Noire, old-skool Shamen (talking pre-En-Tact), Meat Beat Manifesto, etc etc

ack. I was trying to link RRose's remix of a Matmos track called "You" but it doesn't load for some reason. But it's out there on YouTube and if you like RRose, you might dig it.

Thanks for pointing that out, tune... Awesome.

I realise this thread came out of the discussion about how many physical album purchases people had made which in turn came out of (I think) a Grizzly Bear thread and you're addressing the issue of missing out on one-offs because of the way you currently buy music ... but I'm mulling over the idea that sometimes there's a value to not hearing stuff.

My own access to music and listening habits have changed with a shift from music journalism to an unrelated 9-5 job which circumvents listening to music in the day (unless I'm driving) but my enjoyment of music hasn't changed ... and I can actually afford to buy music now.

(Not intended to be a criticism of the thread and not a completely coherent and thought-through idea).

That said, I'd guess you'd like Diagrams based on other music I've heard/read you recommend.

looking at your list of "likes" here are some bits that spring to mind that might be up your cul de sac (on the daphni/four tet tangent in particular)

Jaques Greene's remix of "Lotus Flower" by Radiohead
Julio Bashmore - "Footsteppin'"
Floating Points "Arp 3 EP" or "Vacuum EP" or "Peoples Potential" or his remix of Four Tet "sing"
Space Dimension Controller - Journey to the Core of the Unknown Sphere on Clone Royal Oak
XXXY - Ordinary Things
Lone remix of Knight Moves by Chilly Gonzalez

this ...

Tensnake in the house comp, it's a really varied collection and also Perc's recentish A New Brutality ep which really bodes well for his next lp. Not sure if I fully understand what you are asking for but both these might please someone of a more rockist persuasion.

So did you find anything you liked Sicko?

Still need to trawl through all the recommendations! Will do so in a couple of weeks time once we're finally moved house.

lock thread

Not new but currently obsessing me and it fits the lush, sad techno vibe.

"trauermusik" is the best thing

As far as I remember the Kompakt compilation it comes off is by some way the best of the later Totals.

yup it's got "we love", "in the moog for love', "every day (could be our last day)", "rainy nights in georgia" and "berghain" on it too

I have pretty much every remix Ewan Pearson has done and yet it took me five years to hear Trauermusik. It's one of the reasons I value ILX polls - I put together Spotify playlists of all the tracks I haven't heard and stumble across beauties like this and (from the same poll) Richard Davis's astonishing Bring Me Closer, which I think Sick would also love.

he was playing with some white kids, and they call him over and whispered something in his ear, you know

I had never heard that Richard Davis track outside the context of Mayer's Fabric mix until the ILX poll. The sweeping strings in the last couple of minutes really took me by surprise.

It's so great - honestly one of my favourite dance tracks of the 00s now.

AHHH I had forgotten how amazing "in The Moog For Love" is until just now.

I preferred Total 7 to Total 8 but that track might be my favourite off either.

i suspected i preferred the other two steadycam records to that one so i went back and checked.

BANGER: like if an italian vampire porn movie decided it needed a techno soundtrack.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=186OgshfTsU&feature=related

the "get on up with" one was good too.

Steadycam!

Steadycam - Knock Kneed is one of the most descriptive names for a dance tune since 'Long Whiney' by Global Goon

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-n28zgoBbU

I think I mentally conflate Totals 7 and 8 actually, my favourites appear to be split over both. Thomas/Mayer's 'Uber Weisen' is another terrific one.

Knock Kneed is indeed another amazing one.

Loved the early Steadycam and Borrato (eg. Arquipelago) so so much.

i am rockist too but i found it tough to get into dance music thru trax/singles exclusively, despite that being in general my fav way to listen to music. and i barely like any dance albums. so many house/techno trax start off quietly with like a minute of just drums, a little bass, everything else slowly entering the mix, then eventually peter out in a similar way. it can be p exasperating if you listen to a lot in sequence. lately i'm listening to crazy amounts of dance music but exclusively thru mixes, they usually cut to the goods & expose you to way more stuff than downloading/buying individual trax ever could, i recommend check out the thread entitled "your favourite mixes of 2012, fuck"
