ooh, now that's an enticing description
never heard of the artist and the label doesn't ring a bell but excited to listen!

the reason I don't listen to much that challenges me any more is because there's too much stuff that just seems custom designed for me to enjoy
― lukas, Friday, 4 December 2020 23:52 (three years ago) link
maybe that's why i can't get into the new andras album even though i would like to

That Pretty Sneaky LP is pretty amazing, and had it been nominated for the EOY poll would have made my list.
― octobeard, Monday, 18 January 2021 03:46 (three years ago) link
Yeah I probably should have nominated it, I figured no-one else had listened to it...
I only discovered this via Tim F's end of year list, but it's great too: https://boomkat.com/products/pilgrimage-048a244b-2c27-4f51-babc-b0116ddfb77c

yes! so good right? the chanting vocals that come in at the end of βamuletβ sound familiar but iβm not sure what they remind me of, maybe something from pure moods
― karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Wednesday, 10 February 2021 03:07 (three years ago) link
I totally agree! Bizarr is tremendous. Thanks!

i need to go back to that record, i really liked the organizatsiya album last year which i've only just realised is on the same label:

d. tiffany & dj zozi r doing it ronghttps://planeteuphorique.bandcamp.com/album/phase-ur-reality
What is it that makes this so good?
― lukas, Friday, 26 February 2021 21:33 (three years ago) link
not feeling nu progressive / trance. i wish i liked d tiffany more. maybe i'll fall in love with it a few years late like i do w/ everything else lol. ok this "mtv (reality vocal)" has a nice breakdown.

xp tbh i'm not big on that record. but i do think much of it would sound sick slowed down 25%+
my fav jam from them is in a slower tempo

maybe this should go on the melbourne --> vancouver thread but I really enjoy how this general spiderweb of interconnected artists / sounds manage to take in trance, progressive/early-orbital, hardcore, breakbeats, jungle, basically anything that was going on between 1992 and 1999 (including uk garage at times) in what feels like a quite open-minded / open-hearted way - as if the unifying aesthetic is less some particular sonic brief or even some kind of ideological position other than "wow the 90s would have been a great time to go raving".
― Tim F, Sunday, 28 February 2021 22:49 (three years ago) link
which, tbf, is how I heard that stuff as a baby raver in '98. as far as I was concerned all these separate scenes were part of one single giant scene (sort of a sound multiverse that I imagined in my head at 3am back at someone's place after the party.)
― lukas, Sunday, 28 February 2021 23:16 (three years ago) link
how do we feel about fred again...? i think his new release 'actual life' is just a compilation of singles and ep tracks he's dropped since last year, but it holds together very very well as an album imo. he's great at telling these stories through sample collages, mixing in some really powerful emotion. the beats still knock, too.

Check out the Carcass Identity EP on Phase Group if you want some sort of industrialish vibes

Is this the right thread to talk about 9128 style techno? I guess that would be mostly labels like A Strangely Isolated Place, Affin, and Silent Season. I'm really enjoying the newest Toki Fuko release, "Human Design", which is I think coincidentally the one song without spoken word ("coincidence", because I don't mind the spoken word stuff at all).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjtKRdsQqhE
The whole album is kind of hypnotic, contemplative and at times eerie, and kind of feels like it fits into some kind of continuum with Donato Dozzy's "K" and Seraphim Rytm's Aeterna, as albums that can lull me into a slightly disorienting late afternoon nap.
― beard papa, Friday, 30 April 2021 00:29 (two years ago) link
really nice, wasn't aware of 9128, thanks for sharing
― karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Friday, 30 April 2021 13:48 (two years ago) link
Wow that Toki is beautiful, looks like I've got a rabbit hole to jump into. Thanks!

whoa yeah
― ciderpress, Monday, 3 May 2021 13:34 (two years ago) link
This Toki Fuko album is fantastic, thank you - I listen to a lot of 9128 style stuff, but this totally passed me by.
New Skee Mask is predictably great on the first couple of listens (itβs long, though!).
― toby, Saturday, 8 May 2021 11:02 (two years ago) link
ooh a new Skee Mask - will have to check that out.
― calzino, Saturday, 8 May 2021 11:04 (two years ago) link
that latest AceMoMA album A Future is another good one I've been blasting out today.
― calzino, Saturday, 8 May 2021 15:54 (two years ago) link
the new Skee Mask, AceMoMA and the new Lawrence release "Birds On the Playground" - this is three albums I've had on heavy rotation for the last couple of days now.
― calzino, Sunday, 9 May 2021 10:20 (two years ago) link
acemoma is a home run imo.
― John Cooper of Christian rock band Skillet (map), Sunday, 9 May 2021 16:28 (two years ago) link
adding to the chorus for that toki fuko record, it's extremely great and I can't stop playing it. picked it up + the artist discog on bandcamp friday. everyone I've shared it with has been really into it too.
similarly, I've lost track of silent season releases the last few years. did I miss much?
oh and, anyone familiar with the heavenchord catalog? super prolific. I go back to this track pretty regularly but have only quickly scanned thru some of the others:https://coldtearrecords.bandcamp.com/track/cosmic-revelation
the spotify discogs listing looks like an endless well of dub/ambient/techno/field recordings...
― (β_β?) (original bgm), Sunday, 9 May 2021 20:54 (two years ago) link
I've been a bit underwhelmed by Silent Season's output in the last few years, it might just be me.
― calzino, Sunday, 9 May 2021 21:56 (two years ago) link
I listened to new Daar and Owl releases on SS last week and it isn't much special.
― calzino, Sunday, 9 May 2021 21:59 (two years ago) link
yea, I also stopped following because the quality seemed to be dipping...
― (β_β?) (original bgm), Sunday, 9 May 2021 22:51 (two years ago) link
The new Skee Masks is β¬18 EUR or more on Bandcamp. For the digital release.
I'm on my first preview listen and I'm really into Stone Cold 369 so I'm probably gonna do this, just a little shocked.
― lukas, Thursday, 13 May 2021 17:37 (two years ago) link
it's basically a double album is how i thought of it
― ciderpress, Thursday, 13 May 2021 17:41 (two years ago) link
ha I hadn't scrolled down enough to see it was 18 tracks.
― lukas, Thursday, 13 May 2021 17:45 (two years ago) link
i am absolutely obsessed with the skee mask record

i"m excited to get into it, going to try to listen later today :-)

how different is it to the last one? I thought that one was really, really dismal
― boxedjoy, Monday, 17 May 2021 21:17 (two years ago) link
i really liked the last one but this is way less desolate and more confident and maximalist in every way, with a really consistent atmosphere that, like compro, feels like a sound sculpture of the album art, a dense lushness defined by thickets of percussion
