New Imaabs full-length is pretty crazy, distorted synth ambience with occasional jackhammer club beats

Great mix from one of my faves:https://soundcloud.com/factmag/fact-mix-653-shalt-may-18
I've been gravitating away from the super noisy end of things, my ears can't take it, but his choice of textures are always almost soothing, while still being distorted and mangled. (one of mine in there too, full disclosure)
Also, new on NON, I like the idea of this (apparently all sounds generated with saxophone initially but processed beyond recognition):https://nonworldwide.bandcamp.com/album/alex-zhang-hungtai-divine-weight

not to direct people away from ilx but i noticed that Patten put together this new message board that seems like it's filled with people who pay attention to this sort of stuff. kind of dissensus-y, but more critical of the Reynolds/Fisher ethos
https://forum.555-5555.org/
― austinb, Friday, 8 June 2018 00:33 (five years ago) link
imo dissensus always was really dry in how they talked about music, any personal reactions were about as deep as “this is a tune”kind of wonder what the new dubstepforum is tbh. probably... dsf

― Vapor waif (uptown churl), Friday, 13 July 2018 00:56 (five years ago) link
I like that but I don't know if at the end of the day I totally understand some of this rolling experimental electronic misfit club music. Stuff like that, part of me is like, when does the beat drop? I know how cliche that is but like, there's no reason for their not to be a beat! It's beautiful melodic techno. Throw in a kick drum for us. I see the promo calls it "DJ tools" but that's what B-sides are for.

https://nathanmoody.bandcamp.com/album/tudes-i-blue-box
bit of an older release (2017), but still engaging -
"This first volume features a very small Eurorack synthesizer, using primarily Mannequins brand modules and a touchplate keyboard. Every track is played live with no overdubs."
this struck me with its exciting timbres / energy, again, exploring modular synthesis.

https://billygomberg.bandcamp.com/album/slight-at-that-contact
Billy Gomberg makes music that might appeal to people who like Microstoria, En, Fennesz, Nuno Canavarro, et al. It's unhinged and thick with atmosphere, drifting and droning--aural latticeworks, with unusual textures, marked depth, and odd sound events. It's also calm (at times) and meditative. His more recent work sounds darker (tonally), with add'l acoustic elements coloring the fray.

not talking about specifically just a general statement about straight white guys who would describe what they like as 'misfit club music'
― macropuente (map), Saturday, 13 October 2018 04:06 (five years ago) link
not sure about the "misfit" part, but thinking the "experimental electronic" part of the title might determine the content on the thread
― braunld (Lowell N. Behold'n), Saturday, 13 October 2018 04:11 (five years ago) link
except that's also a shitty descriptor but really the 'misfit' part is exactly what frames the thread. music is social bruh and this party blows.
