I've just browsed through the Brinkmann in a record shop this past weekend, so I only have a first impression, but it seemed to contain lots of "micro" elements (clicky percussive filaments and so on). Would like to hear from those more familiar with this release...

God, Radioslave's remix of Le Noir's Eleny is a truly spellbinding piece of work, brilliant. In fact, my dislike of Radioslave, as pushed to disguist come Bell Clap Dance has been well pacified by this.
Oh Micro-Goth, I think I've decided you are my very favourite style of music.

And that is why I will never, ever use the term micro-goth in public.
Not that I like the term at all to begin with.

from K. Ross Hoffman's AMG review of PdP's Black Noise:
...and "Behind the Stars" brings on the grinding electro keyboards and dark, distorted vocals, recalling the "micro-goth" tag sometimes applied to his earlier work...

Is Shackleton qualified for this tag?

This might just be the saddest of all micro-goth epics [for this record, this remains my favourite music genre]

Are Fever Ray, Nicolas Jaar and Aquarius Heaven allowed in here? I have a 'microgoth' playlist with some of the songs in here and I think their sound fits quite alright.

Oh man, looking over this thread is making me reminisce about first hearing Pantha du Prince and feeling all funny inside.

xp Post some Fever Ray, Nicolas Jaar and Aquarius Heaven youtubes in here so we can all decide.

None of those really sound especially microhouse, which is of course half of what makes micro-goth what it is (and in which case you'd be hard pressed to find new examples). Of course, I'm being a total sticker, but only because you had the audacity to say I was 'doing it wrong.' Puh-leeze.

T'was joking about you doing it wrong. If gloomy, dark music makes you feel funny that's alright with me.
