i like how seasick it sounds
more twitchy cut-up filterhouse from sunareht, if you like his style you'll like this, a bit more anthemic and less methodical than previous efforts. also a bit much over the course of an entire LP, i'll admit, but some incredible moments

meant to add - that sosi posi rules, thank you. those rhythms with industrial drums and detroit chords would be my ideal form of music
― Vapor waif (uptown churl), Wednesday, 16 June 2021 18:14 (two years ago) link
Ha, nice.
NA that's very detailed & cool record, I'm into it. Kind of reminds me of that recent Amon Tobin record (Fear in a Handful of Dust). Very cinematic.

“Celebrating Sunday's summer solstice, I'm pleased to release my last productions as a THANK YOU and GOODBYE for you, my dear supporters, with all my heart I'm stopping all activities related to Smurphy forever. Sometimes in life is proper to close cycles and move on, this is my time to stop making music in this format.
Some of you know that I live with a spinal birth defect that has caused injuries on my back and other joints, for this reason, working on computers has become more and more difficult, and my way of making music and Djing is basically based on computer work.
I'm doing this release completely randomly and spontaneously for my fans only, you guys have made this possible and I wanna thank you! IN CASE YOU HAVE NO $$$ TO PAY FOR THIS, PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE AND I WILL GLADLY SEND IT TO YOU!!!
Hope you enjoy it and thank you very much for your support!!
Much love Jess!”

That NKC is very nice, thanks! I need to do some catching up myself, been sleeping on music this summer because I've been trying to avoid spending money as much as possible since I've not been making a regular check since June. I budgeted very carefully, and even with a fair amount set aside for whims, I am just now coming to the end of the money...and I start a new gig on Wednesday for a few months. The wishlist has grown a lot these few months.

Yet another full length of various flavors of dembow/kudurow type bass music from INVT, I don't know how they are so prolifichttps://invt.bandcamp.com/album/doble-carga
Also been going back to the georg-i EP on YCO a lot, it's probably my stand-out of the year for sound design.
― change display name (Jordan), Tuesday, 12 October 2021 18:08 (two years ago) link
That schaffel beat is an interesting twist. The flip is more compelling to me tho, a powerful rhythm. The podcast was a bit all over the place for me.
― recovering internet addict/shitposter (viborg), Friday, 15 October 2021 16:55 (two years ago) link
Unrelated to Air Max 97 but at the moment I'm hearing quite a few tracks that sound like this +10 bpm:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T423D-NzrkA
(If you don't want to hear 2-step progressive breakbeat from 1997 don't bother clicking. I guess it is vaguely related to Air Max 97, at least numerically.)

This latest Call Super release is fantastic. He has quite a distinct aesthetic. Thinking he was French I was going to make a comparison with the production work of Joakim but no Call Super is from London innit.
(The titles are Cherry Drops I and II. I don't know if it's a double EP, an LP or what.)

gonna register my … bemusement with the new aya, maybe I’m on the wrong side of history but the sort of post Sophie glitchy robot diva vox aren’t doing it for me, obv production is virtuosic but it’s so intensely twitchy and in your face, maybe I’m just too old …
― Vapor waif (uptown churl), Friday, 29 October 2021 12:59 (two years ago) link
I'll admit that the instrumental tracks are my faves, but I appreciate the balance and absolutely love the record, she did it. Aya has a such a clear voice through production & synthesizers, they always sound so alive and spontaneous, I can't imagine thinking like that. (I'll never get over the Turbulent Dynamics EP though.)
Tbh I'm having a harder time with the Lotic album, another brilliant producer turned vocalist. Except she's really singing, un-effected, a lot. All the songs work better in the context of the album than as singles, but it's so dense...there's a ton going on with the production, and then there are always all these layers of vocals happening on top. The back half of the album has some lovely moments though, especially 'Apart', I was waiting to hear that one again.
(really just wishing both of them success though, I know so much went into these albums)
― change display name (Jordan), Friday, 29 October 2021 16:55 (two years ago) link
oh for sure, i'm very into, in theory, the sort of pro-social transhumanist vibe emanating from european experimental-club yet pop adjacent stuff like sophie, aya, lotic and ... some others im forgetting, stateside lagging on this tip. maybe arca is sort of parallel/precursor from a more hip-hop rhythmic axis
as for that production article, mixing into waves L2! a nice reminder that simplicity in DAW music is key
clunkers and bangers both abound on this comp but when it hits its cool:
