Replica is just a totally different beast, imo, barely sounds like the same artist (apart from some aspects of the sunsetcorp stuff).

when the synth choir comes in during "sleep dealer", it just kills me. Just this little subtle thing that evokes so much emotion. And then the playful flute sample that comes in... Delightful.

The RvNG album with opo, james ferraro, laurel halo, and daniel borden is really really lovely as well. More in line with the rifts/returnal stuff

Been thinking of checking out that RVNG record but the presence of Ferraro is like walking through a field on a pleasant day only to slip on a dog turd. Is his contribution suitably minimal?

everyone plays pretty chill on it. he doesn't get all "wacky" or w/e if that's what you mean.

those chords that come in at 1.15 are so so so so creepy

All my favourite electronic artist have or are releasing albums this year. I am so looking forward to this.

Really disturbing video.

yeah....

Only heard less than 5 minutes, but...album of the year?

going to rule

i am preemptively enjoying the uncomprehending disdain with which this will be met in many quarters. i am really excited tho, lopatin is the only person i really trust to occupy some post far side virtual, post vaporwave space

the song and video certainly seem more "post far side virtual" than "post vaporwave" to me

sounds like video games

Disappointingly and surprisingly like FSV. I'll still check out the record though.

vaporwave

Disappointingly and surprisingly like FSV

worried me but I'm into this

also, he's done stuff in this style before: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cseTX_rW3uM

(video might be more disturbing than the new one, depending)

not sure i'm getting the disturbing aspect of the "problem areas" video. was troubled by drywall pringles tho. good track in any event. more interesting and evocative than anything on fsd.

and thanks for the "meet your creator" clip, lukas. wonderful and new to me.

if ppl weren't paying him attention in 2012 then I wld highly recommend his 'remix' of i only have eyes for you which is my fav thing he's done

Real post-vaporwave shit

been watching this video on repeat for the last 3 days - so queasily mesmering

this has leaked.

This is messing with my head in the best possible way.

Have you guys heard this old Alan Braxe remix?

haven't listened to the new one yet. but in general, i've been obsessing over rifts, returnal, and replica. does anyone have an opinion on the earlier releases? he's got so much stuff - full lengths, cassettes, weird comps, singles - what's essential?

In my opinion those three are the most essential ones, as each represents a different style. I don't know much of the other material.

The new one is quite... New. Less washes of noise, more crisp and sparse a sound but all over the place nonetheless. Some tracks remind me of Fennesz, some of Autechre, in terms of shuffling sounds in a hectic collage way, but it's very OPN. Oh and there's a lot of organ! And 'Zebra' contains the most beautiful single sound I heard all year. I don't go gaga over a single sound often enough.

Sorry for this vague stuff, only heard it twice today and not on headphones, but it is exciting yet again.

i cannot recommend enough CHUCK PERSONS ECCOJAMS VOL. 1

want to hear this: http://www.discogs.com/Chuck-Persons-ADD-Complete-Box-Set/release/3942206

never heard anything by him that wasn't worth listening to at least once. (ok i guess i was lukewarm on that mix of the Clinic album.)

there's some good stuff on his collaboration with Tim Hecker, like Vaccination.

Z S have you checked out Games / Ford and Lopatin?

are the wayslow edits around anywhere?

these are cool

http://www.discogs.com/Skyramps-Days-Of-Thunder/release/1652017

i've never heard any of that!

Me neither! Taking note of all these recommendations, thanks guys!

games' "heaven can wait" vols. 1-3 are good. echojam mixtapes.
the KGB Man tape is cool too. "Demerol....."

i've heard ford & lopatin exactly once, and never listened to games at all. i need to get on this shit!

'Strawberry skies' is amazing, used it in loads of mixes.

Laurel Halo on the Vox for Strawberry skies IIRC.

Yeah, it's her. "Shadows in Bloom" from the same EP is also great.

what's that sound in zebra you're talking about? the silver wool kind of voice that pops up at a minute in?

very much enjoying this new one

Ha! Wile that is great, the sound I meant is the first synth stab that starts off the song, the first sound that kicks it off and is repeated throughout. If I'd knew my chords I would have been able to tell if it was a C or a D, but I mean the first sound, synth stab. It's so crystal clear a sound, living with me eve rain s I first heard it, and I just can't get enough.

Skyramps is dope and Games is pretty good too.

Never heard the Skyramps one before. This is really beautiful, perfect for Saturday morning.

I was just about to post how much it sounds like Mark McGuire, turns out it's a collaboration with him.

Is the new album streaming somewhere?

Skyramps is terrific

Where can I hear some Skyramps?

i'm slowly making my way through the recent recommendations, but this is particularly excellent:

probably would have been my #1 album of 2011 had i been with it enough to know if it back then
