  1. Just a piss-take, standard forum fare, but it virtually flash-banged me to seething rage - I had to take a deep breath, mouth "fuck you" silently (so I don't use it as a reply), and let it pass.
  2. A random comment made me seriously consider - for several milliseconds - immediately and permanently vacating WATMM.
  3. A13, Unxplored Beats. Follow the names, follow the sub/superlabels, find lots more. These are some of the labels I obsessed over when they were fresh, I have them all.
  4. BTW there is plenty of previously released and new material (25 seconds is an album of new music, Dat Tapes a collection from the archives...) available on Connective Zone's Bandcamp, including some of the early tracks from releases mentioned above. Very highly recommended.
  5. Massive 42 track charity compilation with all proceeds going towards Mind, a mental health organization in the UK. Music from top of the line producers like Cult 48, Keiss, exm, Roel Funcken, Min-Y-Llan, Repeat Eater and more. Highly recommended.
  6. IDM-tinged electro for various moods. Recommended.
  7. Musicians Generate Every Possible Melody and Make it Public (Medium) I follow a wide array of different genres and styles, but compared to all music that's available and being produced it's a minuscule slice - there is always new music, styles and modes of expression available to explore. I find this is always true even within the limited spectrum I've chosen to follow. Seeking absolute novelty, something that's never been done before, with no precedent, is a fool's errand - how would you even recognize it if you don't know how it's produced beforehand? How would you know no-one else hasn't encountered it before? How do you know it's unique or not? Why is it important to recognize and be recognized as someone who recognizes it?
  8. Some trips end, some are forever, some flash back. Acid's never not cool and you can always drop it, whatever you're spinning. It's one of the Infinity Stones of electronic dance music, it's the Tesseract. Like I wrote here -
  9. Classic reissue from Delsin, originally released on Headspace sublabel Emoticon almost two decades ago; Connective Zone's earlier releases were on A13 and Unxplored Beats - which, like this reissue, are highly recommended.
  10. A four-tracker of dreamy acid tech-house, techno, electro and breaks - but alas, vinyl only. Recommended.
  11. Free download SC release, glitchy and crunchy bass-heavy electronics. Recommended.
  12. Makes me want to check out if it would mash up/blend/mix with Digeridoo, the remix (4m45s) would fit nicely within (7m11s) the longer track. The BPM difference is quite big, though. It's a nice remix, definitely level up from the Sophie one.
  13. The only time ever Vincent Price performed the rap part from Michael Jackson's Thriller live.
  14. Nobody expects the middle-aged Finnish electronic music enthusiast - GET THE COMFY CHAIR! I've mentioned MLO a few times before, e.g.
  15. There's some nifty tracks in there. Recommended. Oh, and if you need a Bandcamp release id for an embed, create a bookmark with the URL javascript:window.alert(JSON.parse(document.getElementsByName("bc-page-properties").item(0).content).item_id) and add it to your bookmark toolbar; when you're on a Bandcamp release page, run the bookmark and you'll get the id on a popup where you can copy and paste it to the embed's input. It'll be even easier if you use TamperMonkey or something else like it, maybe if I'm bored I'll enhance that by copying the id straight to the clipboard.
  16. Necromancing because there's a fourth run of the box set available, edition of 100.
  17. A concept album spanning from ambient through electro to techno and some downtempo electronics. Recommended.
  18. A new Tescon Pol release, sounding nice based on the taster track. Recommended, check out the previous one, too.
  19. MLO is one of my long-time ambient favourites from the early 90s, I especially love Io. Music From Memory continue their Virtual Dreams series with this compilation, highly recommended.
  20. Beats, breaks, drums, and bass in various dancefloor-friendly forms. Recommended.
  21. The preview tracks sound interesting, but I'm waiting for more; if you liked the latest Shackleton, you'll like this, too.
  22. The longest I've had to wait to get a copy of a certain (albeit second hand) record - to date - is over 12 years. A bit over six weeks? Pfft, amateurs.
  23. Facebook Dangerous Individuals and Organizations List (Reproduced Snapshot) [The Intercept] Facebook Praise, Support and Representation Moderation Guidelines (Reproduced Snapshot) [The Intercept]
