  1. Someone should introduce Burial to Aleksi Perälä.
  2. Listening to the Artificial Intelligence comp on Warp in '92. It's not hyperbolic to say that was a life changing purchase.
  3. This can mean only one thing. New album incoming!
  4. Marcus, I also love you like brother but cmon now, pls.
  5. The latest collection by Cascadian resident loscil aka Scott Morgan is a stunning meditation on light, shade, and decay, sourced from a single three-minute composition performed by a 22-piece string orchestra in Budapest. The subsequent recording was lathe-cut on to a 7-inch, then “scratched and abused to add texture and color,” from which the entirety of Clara was sampled, shape-shifted, and sculpted. Despite their limited palette, the compositions summon a sense of the infinite, swelling and swimming through luminous depths. Certain tracks percolate over narcoleptic metronomes while others slowdive in shimmering shadowplay, sounding at times like some noir music of the spheres. Although Morgan's compositional premise for Clara was quite defined, the resultant work is wonderfully opaque and spatial, equal parts lush and lurking, traced in fine-grained gradients and radiant silences. The album's title comes from the Latin for ‘bright': a fitting muse for this masterpiece of celestial electric currents and interstitial ether, where “shadows are amplified and bright spots dimmed.” https://loscil.bandcamp.com/album/clara
  6. Is the midnight sun series finished then? I have to know. Aleksi pls!
  7. It's a goodun for sure, and it's got some brilliant tracks, but I'd probably still rate Sheath as my least favourite LFO album. LFO's output was so great that's no bad thing though.
  8. It's all about Millionaire Dogs for me. The only disappointing part of that track is that it's only 1:53 long ?
  9. Mike, I love you like Marcus does but cmon now, pls.
  10. I’m going to listen The Disintegration Loops in its entirety tomorrow, thanks guys. It’s been a while.
  11. The first ten seconds are great, but it all gets a bit samey for me after that.
