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

Count me in for loving Kush Jones and DJ Swisha, but not really being on the DJ Python train

sick OTT satirical shit

this slaps hell yeah

“Mastered by Russell Haswell” oh you don’t say

dj python is fantastic, all of it

i mentioned this in the reconstructed thread (sorry) and its from late 2019 but new ramzi is so good, better than python imo (not to be hierarchical)

Lol at the reply post that turns it into an actual minimal techno tune

of course, matmos has already done this _and_ performed it in concert

over 2,000 reviews of the album on rym and yet the pitchfork-industrial complex only gave it a 7.8! shameful

with due respect to drew and martin, how fast we forget hurra torpedo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMi_Bu4PesA

well i for one had never heard of hurra torpedo. (honestly it's a struggle for me to remember matmos, i'm old) hurra torpedo remind me more of amoebic ensemble, even though technically amoebic ensemble only had one member who played pots and pans. you can hear him in the earlier band space heater at the beginning of this video:

hurra were an aughties hit for me; their touring schtick was to source appliances at every stop because they utterly demolish whatever they're "playing". It's energetic!

stunning 2020 update of nebulous artificial intelligence / ambient house vibes

I will be sure to check this thanks.
Love the Ex-Terrestrial stuff too - just made a CD comp from some of his Bandcamp 12"s.
Jamie Tiller's been playing quite a lot of this early 90s influenced house / techno on his NTS shows. Great stuff.

really like the ex-terrestrial album paraworld . gets sorta saw85-92-ish at times.

ANF is the shit too!! TIP

Thanks for the tip on Jamie Tiller. There's so much good stuff on NTS.

I hadn't realized Robag Wruhme released a new LP last year. Parts of it sit well alongside some of the new ambient house stuff without any obvious 90s signifiers. Other parts (Volta Copy) get a little too sugary for me. Maybe the laziest way I can praise it is to say it's the equal of Thora Vukk.

Really hitting the spot right now, thanks.

Regis - Hidden In This Is The Light That You Missed

Arg. You get the idea though...

[not sure what I've done wrong there tbh. Any thoughts appreciated]

(not sure what you did differently, may just be youtube being a butt)

Thank you!

Is this the thread to talk about the new Rival Consoles?

works for me. I've played it a couple of times but was kinda distracted in both instances. I think I like it?

Just digging in. So far it's a bit "safe" for me. He's always walked a line between the kind of more krautrocky experimental electronics techno that I like (think Border Community) and the kind of pretty easy listening hotel lobby electronics I don't like as much.

Yeah that’s a fair description; I tend to have the same mixed reactions to his work. Actually my favorite recent thing he’s done was a single earlier this year that didn’t wind up on the new album. It’s wobbly, low-key piano piece: https://open.spotify.com/album/46HYCYxZJjjl2DYPnWBCIC?si=OEXyIIMaQymdlLGBVj-2nQ

Shawn Rudiman's Conduit album is hitting the spot today

it's a bit "safe" for me

I'm very generous in my appraisal of post-elevator music of this kind, but with Rival Consoles, it's hard not to expect more. He should throw a wrench into his own formula more often.

Nathan Fakes album in the other hand is killer. People talk about it as his return to techno, I don’t really go to techno clubs much these days but other than having beats don’t see these tracks as club bangers. They’re wonderfully messy krautrock IDM or something.

Love the Nathan Fake album so much

really? damn, never rated him at all

anybody feeling the INTe*ra album? I’m a huge Acting Press fan but can’t really get into it for some reason

https://www.phonicarecords.com/product/intera-aqueduct-acting-press/165889

I was definitely not paying attention to the sky was pink era Nathan Fake and James Holden but the stuff those guys, and Luke Abbot and Wesley Matsell have been doing the last few years is pretty great though some go a bit too modular experimental music for my taste.

:) :) :)

hell yeah

that's great, lotsa bounce

d. tiffany & dj zozi r doing it rong
https://planeteuphorique.bandcamp.com/album/phase-ur-reality

I am always down for d tiffany.. thought dj rozi was one of her aliases

it is IIRC ! :)

has there been any discussion of andras' album joyful in this thread? warm, lived-in deep, verging-on-ambient house for headphones.

favs are "honeybird" and "poppy"

"Live Forever" is the one for me off it but it's such a warm, dreamily excellent album

WOOOOOOOWWWWWWW at the D. Tiffany / DJ Zozi album
