Dreamtrak - Odyssey, Pt. 2 (A. G. Cook Remix)

two years pass...

New PC Music compilation announced: https://pcmusic.bandcamp.com/album/pc-music-volume-3-2

I'm pretty excited for this. IMO, the previous two volumes (especially Vol. 2) are some of the best bubblegum bass/hyperpop/etc. out there.

ufo, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:19 (six months ago) link

new Hannah Diamond!!

imago, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:23 (six months ago) link

working with David Gamson an unbelievably great idea

imago, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:25 (six months ago) link

oh wow i had no idea, gotta hear it then

ufo, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:34 (six months ago) link

gamson has had the weirdest career, he shows up in so many unexpected places

i wish he'd done a whole album with kesha

ufo, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:54 (six months ago) link

aw that would have been great

this is ample recompense tho. all fantastic but 'affirmations' is so, so good

imago, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:58 (six months ago) link

gamson reminding mr tundra that perhaps he didn't quite invent hyperpop

imago, Friday, 6 October 2023 11:59 (six months ago) link

oh lol kesha even has a writing credit on one track here

ufo, Friday, 6 October 2023 12:04 (six months ago) link

omg I didn't notice!

imago, Friday, 6 October 2023 12:07 (six months ago) link

I'm still coming down from the release party last night. HD told us that Want You To Know was written from an unfinished outtake from a Kesha album that Gamson had worked on and it's a huge thrill to have it on her album having been obsessed with (the Kesha track) "Stephen" back in the day.

thought this place liked pop music. ah well

imago, Sunday, 8 October 2023 10:16 (six months ago) link

I do! Well I like PC anyway.

assert (matttkkkk), Sunday, 8 October 2023 11:47 (six months ago) link

I like both. But don't like posting on here that much right now. And that's fine / and here's why

the world is your octopus (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 8 October 2023 12:42 (six months ago) link

fair enough. this album is incredible anyway. great pop music. good job hannah diamond

imago, Sunday, 8 October 2023 13:15 (six months ago) link

Gorgeous record

nxd, Sunday, 8 October 2023 13:34 (six months ago) link

yeah this is a really wonderful record. her human vocaloid schtick is still pretty goofy but she's making pure pop here, working with gamson was such a great move

my only complaint is i wish it were just the slightest bit bolder around the edges which is a funny complaint about a pc music album lol

this is the kesha demo that became "want you to know"

ufo, Tuesday, 10 October 2023 15:06 (six months ago) link

haha, in a way i love that it's not adding much new but concentrating on just being an incredibly well-constructed and thoughtful labour of love, so much obviously went into this

imago, Tuesday, 10 October 2023 15:08 (six months ago) link

the hannah diamond album is so wonderful

five months pass...

As someone who has only had a passing interest in PC Music over the years but has got more and more into the stuff I have heard, can I just say, “Wow” to most of this thread. What a wild and stupid ride full of dreadful opinions.

Chewshabadoo, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 12:19 (four weeks ago) link

It's great, isn't it?

imago, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 12:22 (four weeks ago) link

I mean, I would like to point out I probably said loads of daft rubbish myself in amongst generally being on the RIGHT SIDE OF MUSIC HISTORY, lol

imago, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 12:24 (four weeks ago) link

I think I first started proplely posting on ILM to talk about Hey QT, it was a bit of a tough start!

Reading back to the start of the thread, the main problem is people assuming that the whole scene was based around multiple layers of irony, kind of a staggering misreading. Even in 2014 it should have been clear that the core of the movement was this love of the texture & feel of supposedly cheap late 90s pop and appreciating it in a playful, experimental way. The 90s were of course a time when everything was suffused with irony, usually in the most tedious way possible, so I guess it's understandable to be suspicious if that's where you started out, but if people can't give the benefit of the doubt to any new genre when it comes along, then that's just sad.

Think there was kind of a sea change when SOPHIE came out with It's OK To Cry.

Christ, I was an objectionable fucker back in the mid 10s. Not completely wrong but oh god

imago, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:29 (four weeks ago) link

i think trap queen is awful & boring

this is the single worst and wrongest thing i posted itt tho

lesson: don't read old posts, ever

imago, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:30 (four weeks ago) link

the thing about pc music is they put out brilliance and garbage in about equal measure so basically everyone was at least kinda right

ufo, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:35 (four weeks ago) link

like gfoty... lol

ufo, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:35 (four weeks ago) link

you leave my queen alone!!!

imago, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:36 (four weeks ago) link

nxd, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 13:45 (four weeks ago) link

I will add I have definitely posted many of my own awful and bad opinions on this borad back in the day, hopefully not too many the older I’ve got :D

Chewshabadoo, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 14:01 (four weeks ago) link

GFOTY is/was good, Secret Mix is a brilliant piece of music, and Don't Wanna/Let's Do It.
