Current bobbins

this is not exactly a bobbins, but ... speaking of histories ...

Tri.Al.Trip - Truffles Mayo

outdoorsy shenanigans from Slovenia

I like that one a lot.

I always think of bobbins as meaning “a bit rubbish”, probably not helped by the original "electro house bobbins” thread because, well, a lot of “electro house” really was quite bobbins.

hello party crew! as you may or may not know South Africa (Mzansi) is the world’s prime House Nation. it’s the only place in the world where six+-minute tracks informed by Mr Fingers, Chicago, acid and other house variations fill up the pop charts on the regular. did you folx even know a bobbin is a South African delicacy?

all of this to say that I’m hoping this poll I created might get the amapiano party fired up again on ILM, because we’re seriously logging… lagging behind. here’s your invitation - I hope you will all participate:

drowning in a blissful ocean of log drums and keys: 🎹🎹 amapiano a-z 🎹🎹 an ilm poll

Happy to see Sascha Funke back on Kompakt. Not micro in the least.

Tri.Al.Trip - Izistegagozda

The other side of Truffles Mayo. This one slipped past at first but I've ended up liking it as much as the other side, more of an MBG vibe on particularly in the second half once the substitutions were made

Andy Catana - Wav Encore

lil box o tricks from Vienna

I had forgotten Pantha Du Prince existed, last album I heard from him was Black Noise in 2010, but got a notification he released a new album today.

richy ahmed - bad boy

That Nikki Nair EP is out btw, the a-side is really some shit

https://nikkinair.bandcamp.com/album/renormalization-support-group

matias aguayo - el camaron (ricardo villalobos remix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs8bRgCovTY

i would break out of that ^ at either 3 minutes or 6 minutes tbh.

i wanted to say something about the richy ahmed track but wasn't sure exactly what. i guess the main thing is the interplay between the synth line and the vocal. that tension is ridden out perfectly. the rhythm track is another simple but choice thing about it.

denyl brook - tenacity ep on shall not fade has some heaters on it:

Nice minimal house bobbins from a friend:

I'm getting started on DeForrest Brown's book, anybody read it?

i don't love everything robert owens has been involved with lately, and this one is a little sappy tbh but i love the piano

robert owens, janne tavi - naked

it’s the title track of his brand new album, his first in 12 years

Velvet Velour - Show You The Door

inarguable

also by Velvet Velour, from last year

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofP38o5mCMA

Velvet Velour - Arrivederci

that Precipitation album is just the best thing, thx to whoever posted upthread

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaJeoSCMg0E

glad you enjoyed it! he also put this out earlier in the year, which i think is an amazing track:

Precipitation – Reina’s Theme

talking of japanese stuff, have been absolutely rinsing this gorgeous thing:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbrBv3QJU48
Archipelago Soundsystem - Txirimiri Jaz Tek [NC4K]

this has been a favourite this year too, seems quite underworld-esque?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgrlAjx4Smo
Maroki - ICBT1

love that Maroki. and Archipelago reminded me of this Leo Pol track that flips that same vocal (from SWV's Rain). Both put it to great use!

We all need some Heaters this winter.

I could totally imagine hearing Craig Richards playing that Velvet Velour - Show You The Door track in Fabric Room 1 back in the 00s. Not a dis :D

Room 1 feel for sure!

Get a nice pair of socks, too!

omg those socks!

possibly the wrong thread but this eden samara has really got its claws into me after a few listens. shanti celeste helped produce, kind of making me think of early nite jewel?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEU4NL8Alu4

and while i'm watering down the bobbins brand, i do like this horrible thumping new beat racket:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-w-SLnUrh0

i was in a similar spot, wondering whether to post this here. since we're posting eden samara and referencing nite jewel i think it works!

i'd never heard of yuu udagawa, randomly checked her out when i saw this single on a shop's website, ended up buying it. there's a couple house tracks, they're pretty good, the rest is rnb-adjacent electronica, also pretty good ... but something about the midtempo lead track really grabbed me. maybe the "not sure if these are good vocals" vocals that remind me of laurel halo's "quarantine"?

yuu udagawa - forever

all music is bobbins it can't be watered down

short clip from Elise Jilian b2b Farès A. @ SouPaPe _ Tunisia

Achingly familiar jaunt from a beach in Tunisia, just can't remember what it is. Or maybe I never heard it before and just like it
