[Why does Rod Modell do that thing with his hair?]

Good question.

[Earl Grey - Death Rattle EP (Rua Sound)]

Have enjoyed what little I've heard from this producer. Should be sound

[Dostrotime [2024]]

Even though I've largely lost interest in breakcore (preferring jungle and dnb quite a lot more these days), Wendorlan has me quite excited

Kraftwerk live in Japan in 1981 promoting Computer World

[Prefuse 73 - New Strategies for Modern Crime Vol. 1 (March 22)]

Digging this, looking forward to the coming album, despite there being only a few of his albums that have really moved me. A little aimless but nice vibes

[Jlin - Akoma [ZIQ460]]

I love Jlin! One of the people doing some of the most different and arty (not to discount other artists, I enjoy their work too) things in the genre of footwork. Excited for this!

[Autechre-Quaristice]

4 hours ago, auxien said:

they’re available on Bleep & on sale in fact: https://bleep.com/release/9232-autechre-quaristicequadrangeepae

the steel case Versions are still not available anywhere (legally…) other than the bonus CD, tho

Weird that that sale doesn't seem to be in the AE_STORE but thanks for the headsup

[Autechre-Quaristice]

I am still lamenting I cannot buy "legitimate" music files of Quaristice (versions) and Quaristice.Quadrange.ep.ae

sean pls

rob pls

[Confield]

Confield is almost a quarter century old.. yes, almost all if not all the magic is retained, because it really opened the floodgates in a way even other Autechre hadn't yet done at that point.

[when it doesn't click]

I used to dislike Incunabula for quite a long time, being incredibly unfair and not fully respecting that, well, evolution takes time. I first heard Autechre almost 19 years ago now, I think? But within the past two or three years, I think I've grown to like it more than Amber which came after it, more than most other "first generation" iddumz made by people on the Artificial Intelligence series, love how distinct it is from most rave adjacent tuneage from 1993, and just dig it immensely as its own soundworld like any other Ae-lbum.

[R.I.P. Tony Oxley]

Welp, we lost one of the great drummers of his generation

(I find it really funny that one after the other there was someone listening to an album called Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere and then someone else listening to one called The Nation's Most Central Location)

[Favorite Songs Featuring Roland TR-808]

It's hard to say when there are styles of music built around these sounds. Great songs so far, though, y'all

[A few albums recently listened.]

Pandit Nikhil Banerjee - The Hundred Minute Raga: Purabi Kalyan. Does what it says on the tin. 100 minutes and 10 seconds of one of the greatest sitar players to have ever been recorded and thankfully, there's a ton of Banerjee out there to hear, and pretty well all of it, if not all of it is worth your time.


Allan Holdsworth - Atavachron. Fun but highly disposable guitar wankery from a very gifted shredder. Far from Holdsworth's most interesting playing but still entertaining.

Alexander Kowalski - Progress. Some classic early 2000s techno on Kanzleramt. I don't know if it's his best but it's a good listen if you like European techno of this era

Actress - Ghettoville. One of my favourite full lengths by Darren Cunningham. Not quite as loved as Splazsh but more than most (but maybe not all) others

Government Alpha - Affective Imagery. Japanese harsh noise done well by one of my favourites other than Incapacitants or Merzbow. Maybe the noisician I reach for second most after Incapacitants

Sogar - Basal. Superb microsound.

This is not the cover I'm used to but an electroacoustic jam session between some heavyweights named after their gathering is Afternoon Tea.

Taylor Deupree - Somi. Lovely ambient from one of my favourites in the style and an exceptionally beautiful artwork, too.

Pathologist - Putrefactive and Cadeverous Odes About Necroticism. The name and artwork say it all. Some lovely old school goregrind/death metal

[Tomorrow Will Come the Harvest (a similarly named album which is rad as fuck)]

Two musical masterminds Tony Allen (Fela Kuti's drummer and heavyweight in his own right) and Jeff Mills (of Underground Resistance and his own career, known in his radio days as The Wizard) collaborated on one incredible afrofuturist jam to end all jams. Doesn't sound like BoC's album but it kicks some serious ass.
