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

yeah, that was fun too

I swear, every time I neglect to check for new music for a few weeks, that's the period when a bunch of releases happen.

Currently still listening to a few of the recent recommendations from the thread and checking out the new Lee Gamble and Shapednoise albums. The LG one is hitting me in a way his past stuff hadn't and I'll have to revisit some of the older cuts. Shapednoise has some good guest spots

new madteo
new levon vincent

will check out shanti celeste album, <3 <3 her show on nts

Peter F Speiss has a new double album on Pluie/Noir, only heard a couple of tracks from it so far

They’re maybe both a bit safe, comfort food style albums, but the Comit and Stenny albums are two of my favourites this year.

Absolutely comfort food but very very well done is 'Girl, Excited' by 96 Back - melodically opulent bleep techno from someone too young to remember it the first time.

new Quirke ep "Steal A Golden Hail" is wonderful (and I think more in line with this thread than bobbins)

another one on jolly discs. this has been my favorite morning music for the past few months

https://jollydiscs.bandcamp.com/album/ibiza-redux

Jolly Discs is a great label, lots to recommend

Stenny RULEZ.

been listening to a lot of stuff on svbkvlt and circadian rhythms over here

huh, svbkvlt passed me by until now, despite having put out two zaliva-d releases. i'm waaayyy into their album on knekelhuis which is prob my favorite label going

https://knekelhuis.bandcamp.com/album/kh020-zaliva-d-forsaken

https://cocktaildamoremusic.bandcamp.com/album/kris-baha-palais

kris baha's lp is also fantastic. there was some talk about cocktail d'amore somewhere around here recently, don't think it got mentioned tho

https://liesrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sex-monk-blues

last one for now, tom of england. can't decide how much i like it but it's def interesting and very much leaning into its own predilections. gives me clinic vibes at times, weirdly, a band i haven't thought about in ages

Might be a Sweely album on the way but here's a bit of afternoon bouyancy in the meantime

Project Pablo Live at MUTEK, Montreal angling for a late inclusion in my end of year faves

oh, nice!

I was there and stayed toward the front for the whole set. awesome crowd, very danceable, a++ would attend again

i am green jelly

I'm still amazed how it was an insanely chill set yet engaging enough to keep moving at 3AM

it's like the complete opposite energy of the svbkvlt stuff I was mentioning earlier!

on that tip, I'd be negligent to not mention how hyped up a slikback b2b hyph11e set was

really been enjoying the record Not Waving did this year with Mark Lanegan (aka Dark Mark). electronics + american gothic, it's pretty much like that first track on the Efdemin album ('oh lovely appearance of death') turned into a whole lp

oh it's called 'Downwelling' btw

^^co-sign. Well, except for the Efdemin reference - did not know he released an album this year so thanks for the heads up!

No need to thank me, I couldn’t actually get into it tbh other than the first song. Was pretty well received though on the whole, so maybe I’m just bad and stupid

whoa @ this record

Efdemin reference - did not know he released an album this year

yeah it's pretty good, i feel like i would have listened to it more than i did if my life were fancier, like i lived in an art museum or something

or if i had this guy's face tats

I’ve gone east for techno parties, but apparently not east enough

That Efdemin album is tremendous.

holy shit it really is

Eh, it’s alright.

i saw a really sick live-in-studio video evdemin did recently. as in watched it. wow

might be worth mentioning claire morgan's v good xlr8r mix, as she says it was built outwards from the efdemin album, which "struck a chord with how I was feeling."

https://xlr8r.com/podcasts/podcast-580-claire-morgan/

this get posted here yet? it's pretty dope, i don't usually like deepchord-y fakeass-BC type stuff much but this sounds really good.

oh nice, i love brunn.

yeah i was listening to Songs From the Beehive recently, so good. will check this out.

also i LOVE the cover art. weird why do i feel like i must change my life now

there's an opal tapes sale on bandcamp. what should i check out?

p.s. i'm into this new amnesia scanner single at the minute

the cloudface album from 2014 is pretty sweet, re opal tapes

i like this Karenn album for obnoxious techno: https://voam.bandcamp.com/album/grapefruit-regret

Has Paula Temple's album done well on year-end lists? I listen to that album a lot.

https://noisemanifesto.bandcamp.com/album/edge-of-everything-digital-album

I was just thinking about that as I started listening to this Karenn album!

uh I may have also caught most of a Paula Temple live set this year and regret not being in quite the right headspace to truly enjoy it. It was... blistering

didn't make RA's list

i didn't recognize it when mentioned but i guess i actually did listen to it earlier this year. i remember it being too… much.

the single made their best tracks list

buddy this is the thread for the wrong people

At the risk of repeating myself, Stenny RULEZ.
