Loving the first single now for some reason My first comments in this thread were a little too harsh ! Addle just didn't do anything for me but hopefully this album will be like the scattershot bogdan we know and love but then chill

I'm sorry but I really dont care for these two tracks. Other than nice packaging this expansion really isn't worth it. I hate how Warp edges it's fans with shit like this. It's not like we have never heard these tracks before! Just like blackbox, all that hype for a 14 minute EP. Essentially these new tracks make for a 16 minute single as well. I love how afx is still in the spotlight after all these years though, good for rich

Portrait didn't do a whole lot for me back in the day. It has grown on me though! This new track is mindblowing imo

Digging Noto's other works (and have been for years now) but for some reason i never checked out this series. Your description sounds interesting. I'll check it out!

Bit too ambient, is the entire xerrox series like this?

This doesn't do anything for me. Rrose's music has always sounded very run of the mill to me personally even though I try getting into her releases every time something comes out. Same with this one.

From what I can tell it's nothing new, just remastered stuff

They sound completely different I prefer this one tbh, the nostromo remark was on point

Hahaha loved this track as well, very lighthearted

No album or collection of tracks in the world will top anything from Drukqs so I kind of agree but this earth portal is still verrrrry special

One of the best off of syro for sure. I always become euphoric when this track comes on. From the ultra satisfying beats to the beautiful melodic work and the BASS man.... one of his many career highlights

Really awesome first single for Djrum's new EP and first big rpject since Portrait With Firewood. Meaning's Edge | Djrum (bandcamp.com) Releasing November 22nd. Djrum's first release since 2019, the Meaning’s Edge EP is an introduction to a whole new world. For the artist also known as Felix Manuel, it was created in the final stretches of six rather traumatic years work. Having carefully honed his techniques and aesthetics, and learned some hard-won emotional lessons over this time, finally he began to work in a quicker, lighter fashion – and to cleanse his palate a little by bringing in a fresh ingredient: his own flute playing. For listeners, though, it will serve as an appetiser, a way into the delights and complexities of this new phase of his creativity. It’s a serious work in its own right, mind. The use of flutes – including Bansuri, Shakuhatchi, Western Classical, and synthesised all blending and blurring into one another – gives it a coherence and a sense of airiness that unites the five tracks over half an hour, however divergent their beats get. And as in all his music, Felix’s whole life is in here. Ethnomusicology studies, untold hours of DJing everywhere from the gnarliest squat raves to the most rarefied deep house clubs, explorations of his own neurological and emotional makeup, and the technical finesse of someone who is never not creating music or art, all roll into an experience that’s dazzling, delightful and keeps on giving. Just the opening track ‘Codex’ alone touches on OG dubstep, Aphex Twin-like braindance, post-classical exploration, movie themes and more. The gentle tones and melodies that rise up out of it perfectly conjure Felix’s running theme of a protective bubble that provides a sense of safety and tranquillity even as the beats and acid gurgles and spurts all around it conjure up the slings and arrows of life’s difficulties. The tone set, the EP moves through ultra-rarefied glass-like percussion in an almost ambient setting, hints of grime’s counterintuitive patterns, and even more hectic patterns influenced by Tanzania’s hyperspeed singeli style of dance music – but always with that perfect balance of chaos and control, unpredictability and protection. It rewards playing and replaying endlessly, it’s a profound and often joyous experience… and it’s only just the beginning. This is the return of a master craftsperson more focused than ever on his vision and vocation and ready to blow your mind all over again.
