Current bobbins

too ambient for bobbins, but its another one by python so i'm posting it here. very afx-esque imo, reminds me of SAWII

looking forward to hearing the rest of the remixes. NAFF has 100% hit rate from what i've heard

Morris Mobley - Glamour Profession

A big hello to all the steely dan coverers out there

I heard that on chewshabadoo's radio show once, it's great!

Something to pair with the Omar S/Desire collab perhaps, the extraordinary Solitude EP from Hypnotique on Bordello A Parigi -

(this might also be stretching the bobbins category a bit)

I heard that on chewshabadoo's radio show once, it's great!

Yes, took me by surprise this one. A big task to take on, never mind pull off so well!

Phil Evans - Smoovin

Airy light relief from Phil Evans, in this gut-wrenching week where I haven't felt much in the mood for music

Enjoying everything off Cesare Muraca's Uncertain Times EP but 'Phase' is hitting the spot in a "Plone go Bobbins" way

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PJIn-2q4U8

I mentioned this before, but now it's out on digital. Track of the year, imo.

Melchior Productions LTD - Ascending To Our Solitude

Off the new album, hitting home already

Melchior huh? I wonder if that's a Chrono Trigger reference

Ah no not likely. It's the only way I know that name but it's a thing outside of that

melchior is one of most distinct producers from that era of minimal, i still have a lot of affection for his sound. curious to hear his new album

Melchior Productions "The Blessing" is nearly a decade old and it's still one of my favourite pieces of dance music ever

good stuff:

I heard that on chewshabadoo's radio show once, it's great!

Thanks Nick, always good to know we have at least one listener sometimes :D

I’m going to be forward now and plug that I’m on the radio with my co-presenter Clara from 8-10pm UK time. Twitter link to info

Possibly a monstrous question to ask but: what's the likelihood of the new Melchior getting some form of digital/CD release? I can't find any reference to this anywhere yet but may be looking in all the wrong places

If it’s Perlon they don’t do digital but the albums generally get a CD release

Although since the vinyl came out last month maybe not in this case? The 3lp might be too long for a single cd. Just speculating here

It is - I got the last on CD a few years after release; not sure whether to expect a CD release for this one in the next 6 months or so? The vinyl is apparently out now but I'm trying resist re finances

there will be a rip on slsk eventually if you're a degenerate like me

I feel you technopolis. I spent too much time trying to figure it out. It appears Perlon doesn’t always release their albums on CD (including their last album release, for bruno pronsato) and typically release the cd and LP at once. Ordering a 3LP when shipping costs are fast inflating is no small sacrifice…

New Tony Price album is very good

In late 2020, Tony Price found himself stuck in Los Angeles, unable to fly back to his native Toronto because of Covid-19 restrictions. But he found another way. A former radio DJ Price knew was selling their 1981 Lincoln Continental Mark VI, so he bought the car, intending to drive back to Canada in style. He found a bag of cassette tapes—homemade mixes and radio show recordings from the late '80s replete with motorik Detroit techno, thumping Chicago house and advertisements for products that only exist in memory—stashed in the trunk. The tapes and the old car made a perfect match, and Price played the cassettes constantly during the long drive from California to Ontario.

After his road trip, Price scoured the tapes for samples, pulling together what would become his new album.

Well that’s right up my street, thanks. I enojoyed the Tony Price too.

I like the video a lot.

daniel avery - chaos energy

Dig the KH but then, I like most everything Four Tet does

DAPHNI - Cloudy (Kelbin Remix)
(that's Dan Snaith)

https://rhyw.bandcamp.com/album/mister-melt

This is pretty cool, electro around 140 BPM that reminds me of early "Croydon techno" style dubstep like early Benga, Artwork, and Skream.

I have endless amounts of time for electro that blends with UK bass stuff.

Also I strongly suspect he used an AI model called Musika for the title track's hooks, I did the same thing on an EP last year and it sounds really familiar. Although mine was nowhere near as good.

https://grrlmusic.bandcamp.com/album/honeybee

This title track is absolutely bonkers, like UK Bass music with a heavy Justice/French electro feeling, abrasive like some of the more out there mainstream EDM but super interesting sound design.

https://loif.bandcamp.com/album/plunge

Deep aquatic electro that surprisingly really doesn't sound like Drexciya, honestly it's got a bit of an Aussie psy trance vibe to me, or maybe something like Midi Milliz?

Tsundere Twintails - Butterflies

peak time tea time

love it

In one sense an E2-E4 bootleg defeats the point, but if I had dj gigs I would play this

https://omunit.bandcamp.com/track/e2-e4-edit

brand new from one of my favourite producers of late, Lindsey Wang aka Polygonia - twitchy techno with a good ear for colourful melody often of a very chinese flavour, all her stuff is gold tbh

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1VkI6p1q1A
Polygonia - Disha Shu

Catching Polygonia at The Cause on Saturday - hoping for a live set but flyer gives few clues

Oh I missed that post - how was she?

Well, annoyingly about 2 days before the night they cut off half the acts, which took away most people we wanted to see, including Tia Cousins and Jaye Ward… and stuck Pokygonia on at the start of the night, so we missed most of her set and the part we saw we were in the start-of-the-night zone so weren’t really focussing much. She was DJing rather than live and it seemed OK but the venue also had that annoying thing where the volume was low because they were building it up, so all in all no comment!

ah that's a pisser, too bad!

just done a quick raid on the apartment records back catalogue. the last thing they put out was the debut belacqua EP - some great wonky, wheels-just-about-to-fall-off techno, first track on it is this which is somewhere between the fall and the young gods 'did u miss me?':

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHE7_rhAH00
Belacqua - Gunnish (Original Mix)

Yeah it’s a really fun track that one!

I like Apartment Records a lot. Kenny Hanlon is a very enjoyable DJ too if you ever get the chance to hear him play.

Will Long: Too Much

Will Long... doing his thing

Some big tunes on this comp, but this one brings a smile to my face

I like the Francis Harris version on that Will Long record

Genius of Time - CS70 House

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbAC4W2Xxo

My friend Sakro just released this track called “walking into mirrors” probably one of my favorite bobbins he has done:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lxHQJ3tk3Q

oh wow, i heard that on bandcamp a couple of weeks ago and i stuck it on my wishlist to remind me to listen to the whole EP when it comes out. nice one!

I wont tell where the sample comes from because I doubt it’s cleared and I don’t want to get him in trouble but I’ll say it comes from one of the coolest children’s cartoons ever.

new bobbins i'm enjoying

parris - why can't rabbits wear cowboy boots

Some quality Larry Heard style house here

https://davemoloney.bandcamp.com/album/blackout-ep

yes, the Parris is a good one.

this parris ep is excellent

https://aromapitch.bandcamp.com/track/millennium-surfer

reminds me of pretty arpeggiated bobbins of the 00s, like balearic kompakt with heftier drums

brand new from one of my favourite producers of late, Lindsey Wang aka Polygonia - twitchy techno with a good ear for colourful melody often of a very chinese flavour, all her stuff is gold tbh

I had never heard of her and randomly came across her youtube channel the other day. She has a few production tips videos that are interesting if you're into that kind of thing. I like her music.
