ElectroSoul in the same vein as Jamie Liddell, Hot Chip, etc.

Is that suede? looks nice

b'angelo, Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:45 (eighteen years ago) link

as for the lawerence rec, no he don't sound like liddell (thank fuck) but he does cover the same ground as polar and parts of t'boys in tracks like 'swap', 'happy together' etc. few things are perfect fit and tynan's net net is cast way wide anyhow.

{apal defense, Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:46 (eighteen years ago) link

do we really want this guy listening to electrosoul in that jacket?

coloma really does fit into this category though, i love their latest.

cutty (mcutt), Thursday, 9 March 2006 16:46 (eighteen years ago) link

I second the Skeletons and the Girl Faced Boys recommendation.

You might also like Chromeo and the last record from The National Trust.

if my prefs would run

polar>>hot chip>>>>>>lidell>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>junior boys

should i check coloma out?

b'angelo, Thursday, 9 March 2006 17:03 (eighteen years ago) link

do you like bryan ferry? then yes

cutty (mcutt), Thursday, 9 March 2006 17:18 (eighteen years ago) link

maybe even some of the newer Troubleman singles like:

glass candy - iko
chromatics - healer

these are kind of coming from a different place (less soul, more art-punk?) but kind of fit i guess.... i'd play them all in the same set anyway.

timbaland is not my ideal jump-off, but then i've never liked muscley guys

strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 9 March 2006 18:12 (eighteen years ago) link

listening to the new National Trust record right now and it definatley fits into this sound. Not as soulful as Lidell, but definatley in the same vein as he, polar, hot chip, JB's etc.

btw, I love ol' skool rn'b, but do we have new rn'b that cuts it? as far as I'm concerned, Jamie Liddell has created the best rn'b record in the last 10 years.

jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 9 March 2006 22:56 (eighteen years ago) link

Ermmm Mocky....on fine records. His last album was called Are+ Bee....Its fabulous in my opinion. Mocky basically wrote a lot of Multiply with Lidell. Hope this is of some use.

Ed Macfarlane, Friday, 10 March 2006 14:03 (eighteen years ago) link

"How Will I know you?" was a classic and features Lidell's vocal talents.

Ed Macfarlane, Friday, 10 March 2006 14:05 (eighteen years ago) link

It's five years old now, but I'd say that Spacek's Curvatia fits the ElectroSoul template perfectly.

Schneider TM's Zoomer and Erlend Oye's Unrest maybe? Perhaps more "indie" than "soul". Love the former to bits.

mmmm, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 00:10 (sixteen years ago) link

Are Sa-Ra, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Owusu & Hannibal, etc. a part of this genre? If so it's not so bad.

deej, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 02:47 (sixteen years ago) link

If you're thinking of what I call twisted electro funk (like what Prince should've done had his musical taste lived past 1988), here are some recommendations that I find blend well with Jamie Lidell;s "You Got Me Up" style:

The later material of Khan / Captain Comatose might make you happy. Related to that is the KAOS album on !K7, which has some Khan / Snax appearances. Snax & IanEQ also have a nice single in this vein with MANDY remixes out there. Plus there's a couple of Zwicker singles on Compost Black Label.

For inventiveness, I second the Herbert recommendation, though I don't personally feel Scale is the best work... Check Bodily Functions and earlier albums plus some Dr. Rockit stuff.

Martian 2.0?

The Reverend, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 09:10 (sixteen years ago) link

This is certainly good, but the title is somewhat misleading in that it lacks an Rn'B Twist

mehlt, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 18:38 (sixteen years ago) link

"Electro-MOR" is a better term for this stuff. If we're gonna talk about stuff like Phoenix, Zoot Woman, Daft Punk's poppier side, Junior Boys...

Hot Chip are rubbish, though.

Bodrick III, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 20:40 (sixteen years ago) link

'rnb twist' for some reason makes me think of flavored liquor drinks. >XP hated it

deej, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 20:43 (sixteen years ago) link

sorry sugary-flavored is what i meant

deej, Tuesday, 19 February 2008 20:43 (sixteen years ago) link

this is one of the most off the mark posts i've ever read on ILM. dude should have been recommended Amp Fiddler, Ayro/Jeremy Ellis, some Recloose, some vocal broken beat stuff like the Seiji remix of Amy Winehouse....but all the hating...jesus christ!
