    Dude, they're never coming out again. I can't imagine the volume of psycho shit they probably receive from whack-jobs who think they're satanists. I just discovered that the "Seniarz" guy on youtube who uploaded some live boc stuff years ago has now disavowed his appreciation of their work because he just now discovered that they are satanists. Give me a fucking break. I can't believe people, actual grown-ass adults, still believe in religion, a big Sky Daddy who will give you the greatest present of all if you just behave, let alone what's even fucking stupider in the belief in a Devil and that people are actual devil-worshipers. Good God, we're all so fucking screwed. Between these people and (what's probably psychologically and sociologically related) the substantial conspiracy theory nuts, combined with an unraveling environment, heightened nationalist fascism, xenophobia, growing economic disparity, how could one have any hope for humanity? 

    "Yo guys: did you know they actually refer to the devil. They're clearly devil-worshippers."

    Seriously, how unsophisticated a thinker does one have to be to really believe that shit? 

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, if I were them, I'd never come out again either. Between the fans being whiny bitches and that psycho shit, I'd swear off anything public. 

    Relax, son. Relax.

    Mike sent me a papyrus scroll via carrier pigeon to tell me to tell you to never speak of him in this way again.

    Marcus burned an effigy of you and surrounded the compound with a 1 meter high wall of salt

    This can mean only one thing.  New album incoming!

    loscil - Clara (28th May 2021)

    in New & Upcoming Releases

    Posted · Edited by NewSchoolScience

    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.”

    LFO - Sheath

    in Music Discussion

    Posted · Edited by NewSchoolScience

    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.

    Well, LFO - Sheath has no thread here.

    Track 1 - Blown - is currently blowing my mind. 18 years late. I don't know why it happened, must appeared on shuffle, suddenly it was stuck in my head. Good stuff.

    Back in those days, I was like "meh", skipped over some tracks, forgot about it. Same already happened for Advance. I think LFO were "past" back then, we were on other IDM trips I guess.

    What about you, (contemporary witnesses of) WATMM? Any preferences on Sheath?

     

     

    It's all about Millionaire Dogs for me.  The only disappointing part of that track is that it's only 1:53 long ?
