I just got John Coltrane's A Love Supreme as well as Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. Can anyone here make other suggestions of great jazz albums? Never knew I would like jazz but in fact I'm enjoying it quite a bit.

Dunno if this has been done or if it will work. Same thing as the film thread, except with albums. Rule: You must've listened through the whole album recently. Don't talk about some album you had heard a year ago, or an album where you've heard a couple of tracks out of from some playlist or whilst shuffling your library. Also, it'd be nice if you gave us some sort of idea what the genre is, or what it sounds like. Anyways, here goes. Oval's Wohnton (1992): 7/10 It's essentially Oval's later glitch sound mixed with Trip-Hop and a German vocalist. As a result, it's a lot more accessible than Oval's other work. I'll have to give it another listen through.

One of the first women to make it big as a producer and DJ in the world of techno/house and not just another diva. Totally inspirational figure. She was only 56

And why not. I think we need a Drexciya thread pinned in GB as this music is the music that all need to hear. If you don't know Drexciya then you probably only like Ganjasufi and Grizzly Bear so fuck you. I'm listening to Triangular Hydrogen and my dick is rock hard. ROCK HARD. Amazing music.

~ Susumu Yokota ~ RIP 1 2

Susumu Yokota passed away in March.. Lo Recordings statement: “Yokota’s music was always completely individual, always esoteric yet never wilfully indulgent. His touch was that of a master craftsman, creating intricate musical jewels that sparkled like no others. There’s no doubt that if he had been in a position to play live concerts his reputation would far exceed many of his contemporaries. He will be sorely missed by those who value quality and originality in music.” RIP Susumu Yokota The world of excellent electronic music has lost a wonderful musician.

For some reason I've never dabbled too much into classical music asides from Satie and Arvo Part. WATMM, please tell me about some great classical pieces, old or contemporary, doesn't matter. Thanks dudes!

Does anyone have or know about the Third Shock digital releases Sampler and/or Mermaid/Manhole? The label's been defunct for a few years already, and as they're digital only, no shop that I know of carry them. Any pointers to downloadables, not streamables appreciated.

Inspired by the "what got you into music" thread, I decided to expand on the video game music discussion. There's some real classic electronic music contained in old videogames, and probably lots of things people haven't heard. I'm not really into chiptunes, or listen to that kind of 8bit style at all, but that kind of discussion would be good too. Also someone posted some sonic/michael jackson remixes a while back which I thought was awesome but haven't been able to find it again. Some of the best videogame music I've heard was from a PC game in 1993 called SkyRoads, and it was actually a huge technical error that somehow made the music better than how it was origina…

Hi WATMM, @eczem and I are launching 3OP. Artworks will use @oscillik 's stunning pictures. I'll be mastering the releases. First entries to our catalog are insanely good. 3OP001 is out September 2021. I'm trying to keep my post as concise and factual as possible, but I'm ecstatic. I'm so grateful to everyone's involved !

I'm not naming names but you know who I'm talking about. Artists that parody famous people's names by switching some letters around. Only one that ever had some working value I thought was Bit Meddler. At least that had some creative meaning. Outside of that trend there are just some that are plain bad.

Every time there's a new release there's normally a fair bit of discussion in the relevant thread, so I thought it was about time to start a general FSOL thread. Also, I just started a new blog called Fractional Difference, in which I'll be going through every release and song, in order, and looking at various things... all the facts, connections with other tracks, and my own personal feelings about them. It's going to take forever (they released 180 tracks on the launch of FSOLDigital alone), but I'm quite looking forward to revisiting the whole catalogue over the next however long it takes. So far I've done an About page which explains my discovery of the band and …
