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

No need to thank me, I couldn’t actually get into it tbh other than the first song. Was pretty well received though on the whole, so maybe I’m just bad and stupid

really been enjoying the record Not Waving did this year with Mark Lanegan (aka Dark Mark). electronics + american gothic

whoa @ this record

Efdemin reference - did not know he released an album this year

yeah it's pretty good, i feel like i would have listened to it more than i did if my life were fancier, like i lived in an art museum or something

or if i had this guy's face tats

I’ve gone east for techno parties, but apparently not east enough

That Efdemin album is tremendous.

holy shit it really is

Eh, it’s alright.

i saw a really sick live-in-studio video evdemin did recently. as in watched it. wow

might be worth mentioning claire morgan's v good xlr8r mix, as she says it was built outwards from the efdemin album, which "struck a chord with how I was feeling."

this get posted here yet? it's pretty dope, i don't usually like deepchord-y fakeass-BC type stuff much but this sounds really good.

oh nice, i love brunn.

yeah i was listening to Songs From the Beehive recently, so good. will check this out.

also i LOVE the cover art. weird why do i feel like i must change my life now

there's an opal tapes sale on bandcamp. what should i check out?

p.s. i'm into this new amnesia scanner single at the minute

the cloudface album from 2014 is pretty sweet, re opal tapes

i like this Karenn album for obnoxious techno: https://voam.bandcamp.com/album/grapefruit-regret

Has Paula Temple's album done well on year-end lists? I listen to that album a lot.

https://noisemanifesto.bandcamp.com/album/edge-of-everything-digital-album

I was just thinking about that as I started listening to this Karenn album!

uh I may have also caught most of a Paula Temple live set this year and regret not being in quite the right headspace to truly enjoy it. It was... blistering

didn't make RA's list

i didn't recognize it when mentioned but i guess i actually did listen to it earlier this year. i remember it being too… much.

the single made their best tracks list

buddy this is the thread for the wrong people

https://iliantape.bandcamp.com/album/itlp05-stenny-upsurge

At the risk of repeating myself, Stenny RULEZ.

love the new Madteo. Even though I was mishearing the voice as saying "Eccles Cake" rather than "Acting Fake" on Evol On it is still an ace track.

lol i finally got some new some techno i like

planetary assault systems - plantae
whips ass

asc - realm of the void
weird dank trippy all-computer beat music, compelling

stellar om source
hardwax says it's electroclash reminiscent. hella fun. arty in a good way.

oh that's stellar om source - i see through you (ep not an album !!!!)

Steve Hauschildt - Nonlin Just perfect chilly night drive Ambient with a side of retro IDM

Rolando Simmons - Summer Diary One ep subtle microtonal squelch

There’s a copy of that Hauschildt album in my local thats pressed on liquid-filled vinyl. Half tempted by it but I didn’t actually enjoy it as much as some of his previous ones. Will give it another whirl though

Whoah never heard of that I might have to try to get a copy, id say it’s maybe less of a cohesive album than some of his other ones, but it has some great moments to me. but I love all his stuff.

seconding madteo very emphatically

http://velmondo.bandcamp.com/album/moon-gazing

Ambient A-side, clompy beats on the second that remind me of the gentler Opal Tapes stuff. Apologies if this is the wrong thread, I have no idea what I'm doing.

would you say you're clearly doing it wrong, though?

always

considering what to title a thread of svbkvult and related cross-dance genre ephemera:

new RA feature on svbkvlt
https://www.residentadvisor.net/features/3604

Not to dissuade you (the more threads the merrier), but svbkvlt/genome would fit great on the 'reconstructed club' thread imo

true! not sure how a previous post I'd made ended up here

i've been enjoying the newest aleksi perälä album

The one he released yesterday? or the one from the day before that?

ha this is the first thing i've heard from him so didn't know he was super-prolific. i'm referring to "resonance"

It's good yeah.

What is the list of super-prolific super-high quality producers whose albums all have a similar aesthetic (music, art, titles)? Aleksi, Autechre, Steve Roach ...

I don't think the albums Perälä released as Ovuca or Astrobotnia have a similar aesthetic to his recent material.

i really liked one of his records from last year, but that was probably ten albums ago now

fair, I guess I only got onboard around the Colundi Sequence. Wasn't even aware Astrobotnia was him.

The Astrobotnia records didn't have any credits, and for a while there was a rumour that they were actually produced by Aphex Twin himself, but they were by Perälä. The fact that "Astrobotnia" is a pun on Ostrobothnia, a region in Finland, should've been a dead giveaway.

definitely doing it wrong here ... the 20YearsOfOptical comp from a few years back is astounding. at the time the knock on techstep from my friends was how boring it was, haha

this can't be right but ... no one reviewed this? except for like one guy on discogs?

This came out in 2016 but I think defo merits inclusion here.

Pavel Milyakov - Yalta

Ah, crap. I forget that linking to playlists doesn't seem to work here, or at least that I haven't figured out how to do it.
