House & Techno Bobbins 2017

feel like we should have a lo-fi house thread but not sure why

i need to know if it's ok to like this stuff (only half kidding)

Like, one of house music's best features is its functionality and that function is to sound great on the dancefloor. To deliberately make a track sound like shit just seems like hipster fetishism at best

bah essentialism
ilx has been through all this before on the hipster house thread surely, but i think maybe certain 'raw' house/tech visions of detroit/chicago led to the extreme lofi these guys are proffering, but yeah these new tracks probably don't have enough BOUNCE/dynamic range to rock hips adequately... these people probably are hipsters that like early industrial music and stuff though..

i'll just leave this here...

765 tracks of Raw / House / Lo-Fi / Acid House

I have, and love, some old Trax stuff etc that sounds like it was pressed on a digestive biscuit but this stuff ain't that

ha for sure! the stuff i like (such as the No Moon track i posted), goes for a more FACT home listening vibe

we can put a lid on this can of worms if it's good, i didn't mean to track dirt in the temple

That No Moon track isn't bad at all, I also loved stuff like Torn Hawk and Eleventeen Eston a couple of years back but they didn't seem intended for the floor

not at all, eleventeen eston is more like instrumental hall and oates demos or something

House and Techno bobbins should be any <i>good</i> new house including all sub genres imo.

Got a copy of this finally

Any ideas on either of the records Francesco is playing? The Paris one I think mightn't be easy but the Montevideo one seems like it shouldn'tbe too hard. I don't know what either is and they might be better off on the bobbins of the past thread but one of the moderators said that thread isn't accessible to most people, something to do with TCP/IP whatever that is

I reckon we need a "Can you ID this House record played by a Romanian DJ" thread?

True thread Balkanization!

and Francesco is from Italy!

A charming ephemeral wander through a copse. lightweight feelings

I totally missed this Second Storey album, it's got some really inventive tracks:

how difficult that production style makes mixing w/ vinyl

I'm curious what you mean exactly?

I'm sure you're right about how it sounds on a system. I wouldn't call myself a fan of the lo-fi house thing but I like the over-saturated, over-compressed textures as a deliberate aesthetic choice. Probably better for headphones.

just that when the sounds are smeared out it's difficult to beatmatch accurately

I was a bit on the fence about this Arseniu track at first but its wormed its way in, seems very reminiscent of something but not sure what!

Not sure if this Romar has been posted but it's nice

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Mz5gceWiNE&list=RD9Mz5gceWiNE

Seeing him tonight!

there's a bit more of that Hodge remix on his RA podcast

No headphones and I am working in a cabin so there are only laptop speakers but its sounding good, from Cap

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUK8JwfTwlQ

love to listen to perc tbh

Glad to see the newest LOFT release getting well-deserved love from RA:

I haven't been that keen on what I've heard of Triptil but this has a throwaway charm, records that mention the moon have a slight head start too

This is consistently the least spotify friendly thread but for those compiling your year-end lists, this playlist includes all the available tracks on this thread, organized roughly chronologically in order of mention:

ILM's 2017 Rolling Electronic Music Thread Spotify Playlist

welp, going to be another winter of home listening for me. not complaining when it's as gorgeous as this:

I heard this serene record from Takecha drifting across from the away end, what a charming crows they were

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

as well they might be, 2-0 up they are, with this one shimmied in right after it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bmWgLjtj0k

i got that first takecha on vinyl earlier this year

SO DOPE

i like heckle

also i like that label in theory though it always sells out by the time i get around to it

i'm a big fan of heckle's "voices and visions" and "trema" EPs

has dj different - manhattan drive been posted yet? it's a stunner

Maybe just for the first part:
