Rolling techno* albums thread for people who are clearly doing it wrong

Shed LPs are a perfect example of how to do full length tech, especially the first two

I found the new Skee Mask a bit cold and clinical. Give me Shed any day.

feel like people slept on that shed record "too homogenous" yes but everything on it rips. skee mask is comfort food to me, the drums sound amazing but it's also sorta like just sports videogame music or something, shed has ~~mystery~~ about the proceedings imo

yeah I posted in the "diss hyped releases" about that Skee Mask album, bewildering critical praise

Shed is just a highly exceptional producer, the way he makes the bass rumble in the mix is just awesome.

I don't know how much longevity value it will have, but for now I'm quite digging that Pariah album.

Anyone who has not yet heard the atrociously titled 'Steal Chickens From Men And The Future From God' by the Swedish duo Shakarchi & Straneus should do so while the weather's still this good.

DJ Koze has been repping hard for it and you can tell why, although it's a lot better than his album.

i have been listening a lot of octo octa lately and i think she is a wonderful album artist. the one from last year is especially good

what's the newer thread for stuff like this? Anyway here's a Young Marco mix with lots of the Dream House stuff he has compiled lately

anyway if you like your contemporary kosmische music i can give no higher recommendation than to the new vakula on leleka, "metaphors"

That is great and seemingly unavailable. I mean it's not unavailable - it's £70 on discogs but...

yeah i grabbed mine as soon as it was on hardwax, he sometimes represses his bandura releases but rarely see leleka represses ...

I posted this on the rolling house and techno thread, but this is maybe a better place for it. The new Djrum album is very good, imo, for a crossover between bass and techno. I've listened to it a few times on Spotify so far (the 2LP is sold out a lot of places at the moment, it seems, but it's on R&S so should be repressed soon?) and it's terrific and a great, fully realized album.

The Vakula is on Spotify if that’s not too sacrilegious a thing to say

Oops actually it’s his new one, which is great incidentally

if you mean arcturus that one was available elsewhere a year or 2 ago but it rules and is nice to have it on spot

I am enjoying the new Ancient Methods album

The Ame album is a lot better than its cracked up to be.

Really miss the lush style of the Lord of the Isles LP, anything like that people want to recommend?

dj richard's dies irae xerox is outstanding

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2k6ZF4srs4

yeah it's a good un that

yeah, I've been listening to the dj richard album a lot lately.

I bought this album by Junes, it is "well vibey, mate" according to the local paper. I don't know if its a good fit for the lads that are doing it wrong thread but what is the worst that can happen?

that is lovely

the new skee mask album

oh this is quite nice, quite nice

love the skee mask album!

another track from the Junes record, this one was a reluctant bench warmer at first, but since it got subbed on its been chipping in with assists from midfield with a rough hewn yet nonchalant air of a new signing from non-league

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mtb2_ODoB2o

really like both of those Junes tracks

agree with the skee mask and dj richard praise!

bruce's sonder somatic is really doing it for me today as well

Totally, Bruce album rules. But man am I having a hard time keeping all these “weird beats” threads straight ... so apologies if this has been posted elsewhere but the airmax 97 joint is awesome

https://rezzett.bandcamp.com/album/rezzett-lp

this is really growing on me

Hell yeah, album of the year for me maybe

i love the hi-hats

https://www.thewire.co.uk/audio/tracks/stream-nkisi-s-7-directions-in-full

this one is excellent as well.

Debut Quadruple LP from Lizz is something of a mixed bag - snippets from all tracks stitched together here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPMjVL5wsOU

not keen on first half at all! But theres some gold in the second half - the tracks at 21, 25, 28 and 35 mins are all great, some familiar faces in there too

Nkisi is great. Heard one of those tracks on a mix, looking forward to checking out the rest.

anticipating this album. reminded me of huerco s and indeed, popped up on his excellent recent RA podcast

https://acemo.bandcamp.com/album/all-my-life-4

loving this, particularly title track, special, and where they at

The Nkisi album is wicked. Does that count as deconstructed club music?

Also feeling Take Me With You by Anthony Naples, some lovely chilled out deep house/ambient/dubby vibes

that's you running into a vampire weekend gig, that is :p

it's a year old mix and not an album but I've been listening to this mix I found after hearing a track by hyph11e and wanting to track down more music: https://soundcloud.com/i-d-online-1/i-dj-scintii-b2b-hyph11e

also checking out the new Lee Gamble album that I didn't even realize was coming out until it popped up on my recommendations last friday!

I've discovered this "deconstructed club" genre via RYM, and like lots of it, but its really just IDM 3.0.

fair

not a big fan of either genre but must disagree

Is deconstructed club music really a genre it seems like a weird strawman thing but idk

It just seems like there’s a lot of people doing a lot of things these days with club ways of making music, whether it’s neo breaks, fucked lo fi, or post bass weirdness ... maybe just a dialectical movement away from relentless grey tech house colliding with 90s revival? There’s no way Anthony Naples or acemo could be considered idm

otm

as far as 'deconstructed club' goes i think of the mumdance 'shared meanings' mix more than like lee gamble and PAN. someone like chevel is doing 'deconstructed club music' imo.

plus there's actual idm revival stuff now like the skee mask album

One similarity is that no one doing it would apply that label to themselves, and if they are, it's probably trash.

it's one of those catch all terms for "doing something kinda different" that misses the point by trying to fit a bunch of stuff into a demographic hole

wait i thought deconstructed club was all that "ha dance" sounding breaking glass noises stuff
