*'yer' not 'yet'

Good list. Gotta check out that Tom Recchion LP now.

yea that's the one I'm most curious about as well

drool

they had 12 out of the 13 on spotify so I made a playlist out of it, only missing #13 (La Haine OST)

brave new world.

thanks, dmr!

no prob

that Tom Recchion album is pretty wonderful. it's all loops pulled from old Esquivel records and mixed live, if i'm not mistaken. And considering how Tom's love of exotica had a profound influence on David Toop's book, you know he can be trusted.

the vocal tracks on that Eduard Artemiev are pretty dire. "Warmth of Earth" the title track was pretty sweet though.

man SAW II is a long record. haven't listened to that in a while.

Achh, there was this short edit/rework he did of an 80s soul/pop/something like that song with a video of this colourful comet-trail triangle or something that like that I saw awhile ago but can't for the life of me find now. Can someone link me to this please.

haha plax linked this in his chillwave thread

lots of old favs on that list. i think most of my fav recchion is on chaotica. shit like perpetual motion clock kind of reminds me of replica

loving this album. the way he uses loops sounds really fresh to me for some reason.

Not sure whether this has been posted before, but it's great:

I'm really digging Replica. I don't really know his other work all that much, but the weird loops reminds me of old kompakt stuff like Dettinger. And the stuff with piano is achingly beautiful (especially the title track). Weirdly has the same vibe as the new Drake album (sorry).

Not sure what I think of the James Ferraro. It's interesting, but kind of too silly for my tastes. Reminds me of some weird 3d animated factory videos that used to play on budget cable channels late at night accompanied by midi classical music. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

And the ford and lopatin kinda sounds like a pop album based on those same sounds. I dig them, but I don't love them.

Ha. This is the closest thing I could find to what I was talking about, even though it's not exactly what I was thinking. And tbh, it's kinda awesome.

tom recchion connection makes a lot of sense w/replica, which just makes me want to listen to recchion instead

0PN emeralds and the like should release the MIDI tracks as like a bonus download or something

Man, I listened to Replica, and I was like ~shrug~.

Ford and Lopatin, though: that's the jam.

^ word

the james ferraro record is definitely v ridiculous, more feeling out of an aesthetic than a record mb. it's so evocative - reminds me of plenty of shit like jaxon posted: windows 95 game Hover!, wii music - but retrospectively captures/redefines that essence better than any of things it's borrowing from, like some uber pure 90s corporate video muzak. all the ferraro records i've listened to have had that v strong sense of dreamy, dislocated mass-media virtuality, & it's part of the power of it, but idk how much listening i'll get out of this one. but yeah, despite the resonances, or mb because it has myriad resonances, it's kind of like nothing else i've ever heard, so you have to hand it to him

one track samples the Wii start-up noise

I like Replica a lot more than that Ferarro album though

one track on the Ferarro I mean

I, on the other hand, shrugged at Ford & Lopatin; for me, Replica's his best work so far by far.

"Child Soldier" kills me esp.--someone could (if not should) make a Latin Rascals-style freestyle edit of that.

im almost certain that ferraro lifts from the first boomblox sdtrk on that record (im sure ive mentioned this before) also from like mac promo videos circa 1998. idk theres a bunch of direct refs to stuff all that turn of the century techno-optimism, digitial new age shit

music for looking at gifs on tumblr.

i do like this though. i was not feeling Sleep Dealer at all when i first heard it, but it makes more sense within the context of the album.

"Child Soldier" kills me esp

this came up on shuffle in the car the other day and i thought it was something from MAYA at first.

yea it's getting harder to ignore the appeal of parts of replica, ESPECIALLY the first and last tracks. i think i'm still sorta reeling from the initial jarring reaction of dissonant loops mixed in with the granular synth chillage of his other stuff, but it's not that much of a departure really and he's doing it in a way that shows a real admiration for dudes like recchion and reich and all the best avant loopers.

but honestly it doesn't even come close to the last 2 records, saying otherwise is massive hyperbole imo

i can't stop loving replica. his weird stretched out tape loop stuff was always the best (see "demoral"). kind of reminds me of some of terre thaemlitz' stuff, in terms of using samples to tease emotions out of the listener in a convoluted way. at the same time, it's very "natural" sounding.. in an "office space field recordings" kind of way.

yeah replica is the bomb

this passed me by for w/e reason but is certainly of note: http://soundcloud.com/mexicansummer/shannon-f-ford-lopatin-snakes#new-timed-comment-at-190938

the b-side of that with tamaryn is nice too

just heard this for the first time. probably about 2 years late for the train. the video for replica does something weird to me.

Rifts is a really good collection. I've been falling asleep to it for the last week!

Rifts is still the best one I find

Replica is wonderful, I’ve really come around on it since initially balking at Sleep Dealer and the new direction. His best, most interesting work by a good bit imo.

Picked up 'Trans Fat' by Infinity Window last night...that's some cold shit.

had an opposite reaction to everyone else itt re: on the sampling on replica. it comes off as faux-naif and doesn't rly gel with the synths in a way i can enjoy

my take on ferraro is... kinda lol mostly garbage

new track is cool:

http://soundcloud.com/oneohtrix-point-never/song1opn

that is pretty pretty good
i think i prefer the field's deconstruction, but all in all awesome stuff

i feel like there's some sort of essay to be written about sampling/nostalgia/eeriness and the many lives of that flamingos track (which as to be one of the spookiest love songs ever btw) (i.e. American Graffiti, Fugees' "zealots", the Field track, and these great new covers)

my favorite use (09:00) :

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5855088917937778770

Has anyone written an essay about the song's critical SYNTAX ERROR?

Or maybe the song WAS intended to be about sexual objectification.

same issue w/ God Only Knows, ppl need to stay on top of that shit

been jamming this song a lot, it scratches a certain sort of itch for me & fills a little blissed out niche v neatly

should there be a post here every single time he posts anything to soundcloud? probably, right?
