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

everyone listen to topdown dialectic

somehow I missed the first topdown dialectic album until the new one was announced

now I must say: listen to Brad. it's good

octo octa is great btw

new baltra album is good house* album

I dunno if it counts as * or when it came out but this NHK yx Koxyen "Doom Steppy Reverb" is ~~✓¥∆~~

I implore you to check it

Not sure what genre it falls under but Barker's Utility is great. Where artists like Lorenzo Senni have left me cool, this just hit the right spots. Wish the tracks were longer though, each could be it's own 10 minute exploratory jam.

yeah otm really nice but way too short

Yeah 'Utility' is a great work album

I might wonder why, after all the fanfare for "String Theory," Mandar's 2017 S/T album never got any attention. Except the reason seems obvious: they gratuitously put it out on five 180g discs. That said, it is classy minimal house at its finest.

idk really where this goes but it's great and has Mark Fell on it: https://33-33.bandcamp.com/track/oglon-day-1

another one: https://tomaga.bandcamp.com/track/bandiera-di-carta

Does Anthony Naples's Fog FM count? It's pretty damn good.

I much preferred his last one, with the memorable Midnight Cowboy sampling interlude and I can't remember the name of it!

actually it sounds p dope, just haven't listened to it much.

Take Me With You was the previous one

that's the one, it went missing when my last pc died

i love fog fm; amazing album. I should try Take Me With You for sure!

has anyone heard this Afrodeutsche album Break Before Make out on Skam? i copped one track, HIAEA, that's growing on me.

An enjoyable trip-hoppy throwback with environmental overtones:

building bridges is so good

Check out the Tribe of Colin album on Honest Jon's. Minimal repetitive tracks that sound like they're all made with hardware (I don't care whether producers use hardware or software but still) and get gradually more fucked as they progress. Some of it's the kind of outsider house/techno that sounds like it could be on LIES, some of it's more dubby and some of it's more grimey. RIYL Actress, Hype Williams

Lovely packaging too

Apparently he preps parts, puts them in the SP-404 (which is not known for its quantization), and records live takes. That's a cool way of doing things, especially since that machine is so associated with post-Dilla/lo-fi hip hop beats (almost makes me wish I wasn't selling mine).

Tribe of Colin album is indeed great. Thanks for the heads up!

Listening to samples of the new Shanti Celeste - looks like she's got this album thing sewn up. Recommended.

https://shanticeleste.bandcamp.com/album/peach008lp-tangerine

this is fucking great, thanks for the heads up!

omg hell yeah, i love her

chips and cheese on the big toast

!

‘sesame’ off that shanti celeste record is really hitting the zones

a bit UKG i guess

yeah the shanti celeste record is the real deal

thanks for the Topdown Dialectic rec, oh my god that is so my shit

yeah, that was fun too

I swear, every time I neglect to check for new music for a few weeks, that's the period when a bunch of releases happen.

Currently still listening to a few of the recent recommendations from the thread and checking out the new Lee Gamble and Shapednoise albums. The LG one is hitting me in a way his past stuff hadn't and I'll have to revisit some of the older cuts. Shapednoise has some good guest spots

new madteo
new levon vincent

will check out shanti celeste album, <3 <3 her show on nts

Peter F Speiss has a new double album on Pluie/Noir, only heard a couple of tracks from it so far

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZRrhMS5xbg

They’re maybe both a bit safe, comfort food style albums, but the Comit and Stenny albums are two of my favourites this year.

Absolutely comfort food but very very well done is 'Girl, Excited' by 96 Back - melodically opulent bleep techno from someone too young to remember it the first time.

new Quirke ep "Steal A Golden Hail" is wonderful (and I think more in line with this thread than bobbins)

another one on jolly discs. this has been my favorite morning music for the past few months

https://jollydiscs.bandcamp.com/album/ibiza-redux

Jolly Discs is a great label, lots to recommend

Stenny RULEZ.

been listening to a lot of stuff on svbkvlt and circadian rhythms over here

huh, svbkvlt passed me by until now, despite having put out two zaliva-d releases. i'm waaayyy into their album on knekelhuis which is prob my favorite label going

https://knekelhuis.bandcamp.com/album/kh020-zaliva-d-forsaken

https://cocktaildamoremusic.bandcamp.com/album/kris-baha-palais

kris baha's lp is also fantastic. there was some talk about cocktail d'amore somewhere around here recently, don't think it got mentioned tho

https://liesrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sex-monk-blues

last one for now, tom of england. can't decide how much i like it but it's def interesting and very much leaning into its own predilections. gives me clinic vibes at times, weirdly, a band i haven't thought about in ages
