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

Anyone listened to that three hour Prince of Denmark album?

Yes, for most of the last couple of weeks, and also going back to his 2014 mix, which is of a similar vibe. 8 has a lot of pretty incredible moments, particular in its last third. Everything seems very simple, almost simplistic, but the things that are going on behind his beats are often gorgeous. Three hours means you're going to get some ordinary stuff too, but the structure of the entire set makes a great argument for it building to something, and that thing is great.

Kangding Ray - HYPER OPAL MANTIS

could never really get into this guy before but this one is doing it for me

I was into not the prior album, but the one before that? Solens Arc, maybe, I'd have to check

Hyper Opal Mantis did not really click with me on first listen like previous albums (Solens Arc, Automne Fold) did.

Seems like this thread's the only one where there's been a bit of talk on Helena Hauff's music, so I'll paste the good news here: A Tape to be reissued by Dark Entries!. Also, her shows for BBC radio are fabulous. Of course.

ZULI - Numbers
Blondes - Warmth
Garry Bradbury - PANSPERMIA PLUS (puts the * in techno*)

dauwd - theory of colors is the thing in this category i've listened to the most this year. no surprises but it's got a nice light touch

enjoying the new saul cooper quite a bit, love the woo-ish vibe the clarinet brings

been listening mostly to other sorts of music this year, but have loved all these (sorry if painfully obvious choices):

Call Super - Arpo
Arca - Arca
Shinichi Atobe - From the Heart, It’s a Start, a Work of Art
Marie Davidson - Adieux Au Dancefloor
Juju & Jordash ‎– Sis-Boom-Bah!
Visible Cloaks ‎– Reassemblage
Actress - AZD
Blondes - Warmth
Dauwd - Theory of Colours
Jlin ‎– Black Origami

probably a bunch of other stuff i'm forgetting

Marie Davidson is awesome

Oh also...

Karen Gwyer ‎– Rembo
DJ Python - Dulce Compania

i want to hear that dj python

shed's new lp is very good, as usual. gets a little hands-in-the-airey

Co-sign Marie Davidson, Blondes, and DJ Python

some good 2017 techno* EPs for people doin it wrong

Roza Roza ‎– Sadok Sudei
Ancient Methods ‎– The First Siren
Schwefelgelb ‎– Dahinter Das Gesicht
Mark Du Mosch ‎– The Red Hour

this Ilian Tape comp is great:
https://www.discogs.com/Various-A-Decade-Ilian-Tape/master/1165657

i highly recommend anything by Stenny or/and Andrea

I screwed up by missing most of an Ancient Methods live set because I had seen a lot of techno that week and opted for big stage spectacle
they were playing before or after Orphx, I forget, good combo

Chloe - Endless Revisions

i recommended this in bobbins but industrie and zartlichkeit by the german artist moon is a v good album of drexciya-type electro with the odd house touch here and there.

I didn't hear what everyone else heard in that DJ Python I guess.

Here are 2017 records I was into that could conceivably fit here:

Arca - s/t
Suda - Hives EP
Air Max ‘97 - Vessel EP
Fatigado - Sanzala
Masaacooramaan - Drum Fission
NKC - Tincture
SHALT - ʃælt
The Newcomer, Earth Motivation
Mana - Creature
Thoom - Blood and Sand
Thys - Tetris, Mon Amour
Ziur - U Feel Anything?
M.E.S.H. - Hesaitix

And probably that new Equiknoxx record.

whoa love the DJ Sports record

The Errorsmith album kinda rules in a low key offbeat way

the Errorsmith is great.

Tresor's Dreamy Harbour comp from last year is really good, i recommend

new thread covering stuff in this vein in 2018:
Rolling Experimental Electronic & Misfit Club Music 2018

^^ no

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

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r50dBMjhqvU

that's just one side off a double 12" btw

Sorry you don't like my thread tlg ;_;

I like the mallet percussion on that though.

haha i *do* like your thread i just believe in scene balkanization and internecine sub-genre warfare 4eva

(j/k I don't care where people post, I just wanted somewhere to put the music I've been listening to that didn't seem to fit anywhere else)

xp lol

it even bothers me there's a house and techno thread, would much prefer to split into house thread and techno thread, and then divide up house thread into different cities in the US and europe and beyond, and then divide those up by bpm, let a hundred (thousand) dance threads bloom, but sadly not enough posting to support that

Haha, I don't agree but it's a beautiful vision

i also think (much like idm) "experimental club" has become its own thing beyond just any club-rooted music that is, um, experimental, i.e. i think it's a great thread for the breaking glass / gun shot noises type stuff (which, don't get me wrong, i really like) or other post-grime post-footwork type stuff but i felt weird dropping this vakula in the middle of that

Did you hear that De Leon EP?

https://manarecs.bandcamp.com/album/de-leon

whoa that's awesome!!!! i would never have thought about crossover between gamelan and capoeira but when you think about it makes total sense. no vinyl, tho? ;_;
