rolling frankly annoying quirked up random ass sounds glooped onto a DAW 2023

this rules, sounds like HNAS, thanks

ha, not surprised you dig it, sleeve, kewl <3

woah head over heels in love with gespensterland

it's very good!

i will contribute something new but - sorry to be sappy - i really have to say thanks to anyone who dug my record. a bit agog it even got into people's feeds somehow. honestly, i think getting a thumbs up on ilm means i can retire now ...

anyways. a bit less gloppy but two sick experimental records:

UCC Harlo - avant chamberpop/composition, on subtext (ran cap and ly treng labelmates), totally great: https://uccharlo.bandcamp.com/album/topos

Nascent scene of reverse-engineering the pop ambient series through a collapsitarian lens, is as close as i can get to understanding this, but the deleted label is putting out some interesting stuff:

https://deletedeletedeleted.bandcamp.com/album/wish <-- from 2020 but i feel that this crew is currently pretty active; here's some 2023 stuff:

definitely cross-ref with 'music that sounds like mono no aware' thread

the chuquimamani-condori (aka elysia crampton) album is the most gorgeous chaotic mess i have heard in a long time.

https://chuquimamani-condori.bandcamp.com/album/dj-e

yes it’s AOTY material. chaotic but extremely emotionally resonant and intentional.

I have no idea what the fuck this song is but I love it

wow this is something

saw them last night for NYE somehow. ended with the digital accordion heavy jam ... perfect soundtrack to the end of the year

yeah i love this.

my pal Cam Scott’s list might appeal to some of us

Nice write-up of uptown churl's record on there :)

ha, indeed; cam’s actually a friend of mine too, but a person of such integrity that I’m sure that has nothing to do with his kind and otm words. he runs an amazing music festival called send and receive that anyone interested in this thread should check out!

this chuquimamani-condori record is so friggin good, thanks a lot for bringing it to my attention!
I have heard some Elysia Crampton in 2020, but I guess now it's time for a deep dive.

yes this rules
american drift was so good, time for a relisten

this album is fucking incredible, i'm just blown away

very hard to find info about this artist online

good little meditation here, they’re fka elysia crampton

awesome thank you!!

I don't feel spiritually prepared to listen to this yet

ugh that Wark piece ruined it for me momentarily, they are a charlatan and a bad writer

random q: is this person related to Barbara Crampton?

not at all as far as i know

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/may/04/transgender-producer-elysia-crampton-bolivia-aymaran-heritage

this article is probably a good introduction, with the caveat that they seem to be using neutral pronouns these days

I mistakenly assumed the 1st part of this name was Quechua, it's Aymara, but it led to good search results for the curious

wow so much goodness

as if this couldn't get more annoying, there are two threads for 2024:

rolling "out" music 2024: daw gloops, aleatoric banditry, skronk duos, and the occasional peace sign

and

rolling false positive corporate ambient 2024
