this whole slyngshot ep is killer! thanks for the heads up!

That Pessimist sounds dope, thanks for the heads up.

Slyngshot is nice, though not really where my ears are at right now.

not my style but what a jam

Very much so.

Different genre of not my style at the moment, but I used to drop this all the time at parties in the mid to late aughts. Another MJ sample, made crowds go mental.

that one's going the disco house section of my onenote notebook lol

i wonder if mj will still be canceled on dance floors after corona eases up

sorry these are not 2020 bobbins related thoughts

Direct or indirect MJ references are all the rage in Nigeria this year:

naming songs after him...
dressing up and dancing like him...
making songs that sound like him...
interpolating his melodies and videos...
and... naming songs after him - sorry Angola, you got there first

well, not really, if we go back far enough

posting extremely late to say i love when people get mad at a song ... forces me to take a side ... in this case I listened to the song & it was the very act of his dislike that made me like the vocal sample ... could have gone either way tbh. But in this case I think its exactly the 'annoying' vocal sample that makes it hooky & memorable for me. Annoying stuff rules! Except when it sucks

like how many bajillions of minimal techno songs this board has put me onto over the years and i don't think i've ever really heard a song lean on that particular vocal tone before ... wow finally something stands out enough to annoying the table is the table!! thats a point in favor (no disrespect specifically to TITT in this instance)

*to be annoying to

I'll take the cheeky BS of Marc Houle's Techno Vocals over that big-room crap any day.

oddly enough i always thought of marc houle as the one of the leading exponents of "annoying noise big room minimal" (the others being audion, switch and simian mobile disco)

lol that thing you just posted is terrible

it was a huge anthem in ibiza / berlin!

yeah the lead is annoying af but those crispy swinging claps that come in on the 2 and 4 after the drop are so nice

and i still play audion's "mouth to mouth"

Lol I’m never posting links to anything in this thread.

But I am really sick of the clean reverby techno that just sounds like it’s made for bomb disarming scenes in Tom Clancy movie adaptations or something... probably sounds better at Berghain or something. I know I’m probably the last person to care.

It just sounds like a piss take to me. Who am I to argue with the masses!

my thing with big room techno is just that big concrete dance clubs / sex dungeons with funktion one sound aren't even on the menu for a rich person right now. i mean they were always off the menu for me. and i'm over wanting to go to one anyway. it's just not attractive to me right now. i'm thinking of ostgut ton, i'm thinking of a recent ellen alien / matrixxman boiler room set i saw as an example. ellen was playing that kind of thing and it just looked so silly to me over streaming audio; i'm sure it would have been amazing in a concrete sex dungeon. idk what i'm really saying, sort of being randomly critical i guess. i still enjoy anything that anyone posts to this thread on some level.

it's sort of like i guess i'm rooting for that sound to brighten up a little bit (from halfway around the world). like i'm rooting for most of the air-tight burning man 'deep nature' sound to fracture into a million little pieces and turn into something with some life in it that isn't wallpaper music for graphic design execs.

maybe i'm just mad i can't go dance anywhere

"deep nature" sound?

i'm definitely mad abt that

both on your behalf and mine

haha i mean like anjunadeep type stuff

that's what 'deep house' means in utah

oh interesting never heard that term

lol I actually really like that Marc Houle track

i made it up but i mean

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4MdHQOILdw

it's all slow-mo footage of the ocean

yoga house

yes ty

namaste

lol

ugh

now i need to blast some Cenobite sides to clean out my third eye

burning man didn't happen this year! celebrate the small victories

new laksa on timedance out this week

frankly most of it is too weird for me (150 is the new 130 apparently?)

but this one should play nice with your hessle and livity records and maybe even your blank mind and principe ones too

that one is much more fun imo

join ussss tombot

Rolling (post-)Reconstructed Club Music 2020

the Audion one I love is "The Pong"

I'm really excited to see how lockdown and not-going-out affects dance music production, that sound map is talking about does sound great when you hear it out but it's not really the same when sat by the window waiting for the world to get back to normal

can't believe i posted the bobbin of the year yw yall

Sorry to interrupt, Bobbins crew, I won't be here long.

I just wanted to ask Karl - that Peder Mannerfelt track you posted, I think that's the one that people are having such extreme reactions to? What *is* that?!?!?

I genuinely think it's amazing, and I want to hear more things that are like this, specific thing! It honestly sounds like being inside the engine hall at the Kew Bridge Steam Museum when all of the Beam Engines are in steam, and pounding away, the WHOMP of the beam that shakes the whole hall, the WHOOSH! of the pistons, the chattering of the pumps or the bobbins or whatever the individual engine is powering. It is the most machine-like thing I have ever heard outside of YouTube videos of "Germany's Most Giant Engines" and it is total audio stim and I want more.

(*I know nothing about genres or bobbins - the only other things that give me the same stimming sensation are Dustin Zahn - Stranger To Stability (Len Faki Podium mix) and maybe bits of Koenig Cylinders - Carousel. Can we have a thread maybe of "techno that genuinely sounds like being inside a Beam Engine"?)
