Underworld were probably the people who initially really turned me on to electronic music in a serious way. Both 'Dubnobasswithmyheadman' and 'Second Toughest In The Infants' are triumphs of what can be done musically within the constraint of electronic music. Deep, technical albums. The many supporting EPs that were released along side them were huge, significant remixes - many of which could have served as the main body of work for any other artist. 'Beaucoup Fish' released in '98 and was a more dance floor orientated album. Rhythmically and tonally a departure from the earlier material but still very much recognisable. Many tracks being a twist on straight techno. I enjoy a lot of BF, 'King Of Snake' being clearly my favourite track. It's not as intimate or complex as the earlier stuff, but it's not intended to be. Somewhere around 2000 they released a live compilation album/DVD 'Everything, Everything'. Stunning performances, and just a fantastic package of visual art and music. I've seen Underworld live a couple of times, and this is one of the few live recordings that I think actually does the work justice. Everyone should listen to this, I can't recommend it enough And then, something seems to go wrong. 'A Hundred Days Off', 'Oblivion With Bells', 'Barking', 'Barbara Barbara, We Face A Shining Future' are all tripe in my opinion. Soulless, shitty house music. Embarrassing actually. Listening to an old man mumble of cheesy house beats with super cold production. 4/4 modern, rubbery beats and just musically super uninteresting. Bland is the word I would use. They all sound like fucking Calvin Harris covers to me. Not what veterans of the industry should be involved with. There's a line 'Crocodile' that really exemplifies this for me, and it's something along the lines of "blood on a tissue on the floor of a train". It's like a parody of an underworld line. It's too on the nose, too straight. Too fucking juvenile if you ask me. That line was what really struck my ear. Not only does its attempt at layering fall flat, it sounds awkward and clumsy. There's many other examples of this (like 'Hamburg Hotel' being a joke at the cisterns expense) It's a legacy fucking ruined in my opinion. What went wrong? Am I missing something? Does anyone here actually think any of their later albums have any artistic merit?

Hey I'm doing a monthly hour long slot on threads* radio (they have two streams, i'm on the one with the asterisk). It's going to be electro / techno / idm and maybe some noise mixed in occasionally. First show is tomorrow, July 3 20-21 CET. I already recorded it, so here's the tracklisting for this month. And definitely message me if you want me hear your stuff and maybe play it 🙂 Tin Man - Falling Acid 4rd - 4rd J1 1C2 Tysk Raider - XOS Cool and Frank - 2 Live All in C B and R Saviero Celestri - Mental Box Thomas Heckmann - Shipwrecked Aux 88 - Time and Space XY0815 - Tool Matter Patricia - Spotting Carl Finlow - Blue Reedale Rise - And the Rain Fell Legowelt - Dumtoestand I'll follow up with mixcloud links too

Hello, Oct. 25 marked the release of my EP, Atelo, on Drvg Cvltvre's New York Haunted label, which has been home to Evol, Ekman, Ewa Justka, Loraine James and a load more killer music from the underground. Kind words from the label: "After his sensational EP last year, we are happy to welcome Itzel back to NYH! Again he sent us so much good music that it wasn't easy selecting some of it for a decent size release. This is one of those producers that constantly defies the way he or she creates music, thus opening new paths in the jungle of electronic music. Soft tingeled melodies are Itzel's machete and strange, unhinged rhythms are his looking glass. Itzel's sound is like a soft focus version of all of The Black Dog, Beaumont Hannant and B12's best tracks, updated into a 2019 sound palette. It is truly that great and that mind blowing. We can only hope for a resurgence of electronic music of this high quality!" Assuming most users on WATMM are likely fans of The Black Dog, Beaumont Hannant and B12; we truly hope you enjoy this release. Its conception was adventurous. Thank you for listening! https://newyorkhaunted.bandcamp.com/album/nyh178-itzel-atelo [embed code not working] €3 Digital Album The same day, a companion EP, Aglossia, was released -- FREE DL: https://itzzzelll.bandcamp.com/album/aglossia Best, Itzel

only listened to a few tracks so far but it's pretty fuckin' techno/acid. dark and spooky and alien so far. digitals not available via Bandcamp for some reason (but you can listen to it there). Bleep's got digitals for a decent price tho, probably up on other places too. https://bleep.com/release/143002-umwelt-superior-life-forms

Here's a 40min live set from a show I did recently. It has tracks that I've released on Sleepers Records and Florklang and unreleased stuff I'm still tweaking and hope to find a home for soon. It was for a techno / dance monthly event in Boston called Cake Factory which is a great event run by some cool folks so anyone around here should check it out. The songs should be dancey. I've been DJing a bit and the music I've been making is just trying to get folks moving. All the mistakes are intentional 🙂

just stumbled on this EP from 2017 that you can use to supplement this years bounty of groovy mid-tempo breakbeat techno / oldskool IDM. Ryan James Ford — Firepark SHUT ‎– SHUT002 16 Mar 2017 A1 Fatih Servet A2 Sitton Rehlik B1 Misled Youth B2 Rohmie Sinkt "Faith Servet" starts out with a real stripped down hardcore sound and then gets kind of acidy and atmospheric "Sitton Rehlik" kind of an ambient acid techno thing "Misled Youth" really nice trancey one with a lot of space, crispy autechrish hats and claps "Rohmie Sinkt" I like this one the best because it has nice rumbling kick drum and a nice mechanical syncopated breakbeat percussion on top and some lush pads. what else could you need. k bye

Some really nice old-school sounding dark beats from your favorite label. Skam has been killing it lately (between this and Fear Ratio). Bleep writeup: https://bleep.com/release/102442-afrodeutsche-break-before-make Break Before Make is the debut album from Manchester-based Ghanaian/Russian/German artist AFRODEUTSCHE. A shining example of Skam Records doing what they do best, delivering some of the North of England's finest industrial leaning electro. Currently holding down a regular must check NTS show and in recent years performed live on bills alongside some of Detroit's finest, Dopplereffekt and C2. AFRODEUTSCHE's debut album arrives in low key style via the legendary Northern powerhouse Skam. Musically, Break Before Make builds bridges between the Detroit techno and electro cornerstones of influence, yet this is music that views the motor city and Manchester in a similar way to the early Modern Love x Basic Channel Berlin connex. Parallels are drawn between the vast open landscapes of the spaces between both the D and MCR with a cold selection of funky radar bleep techno pulses. Beamed in with a joint love of UR, Drexciya and Mills but also the more electronic end of Factory Records, Marcus Intalex's deep liquid DNB and the early trouble at mill material of Pendle Coven and Andy Stott's Unknown Exception. Break Before Make is a killer debut album form a name we are sure to be seeing more of in the future, for now, let's keep our fingers crossed for some vinyl on this one...

Didn't see a thread for this, dropped on June 28. Been a fan since AFTRYK, and this sounds really good! https://avianstore.bandcamp.com/album/entangled

I am feeling frisky so I would like give away some copies of my latest album today to anyone interested: The album is here: https://unitshifterrecords.bandcamp.com/album/rc-707 Enter download codes here: http://unitshifterrecords.bandcamp.com/yum Download codes (I will post more if these gets used): xlne-uup7 , jea9-ev75 , f7fk-b8af , mldu-xfua , fpja-jam7 All I ask in return if you download is to add to your bandcamp collection and to write a comment and supoort it on bc if you like one of the tracks. Cheers!

Not sure this is the correct thread for a dump like this (a new member here), but I didn't find any other suitable threads, so here we go. Few of my latest tracks. If you happen to like 'em, please check out the rest of the selection as well. I also have a Bandcamp account, if someone prefers that: https://tomikokki.bandcamp.com/

Looking for some new cuts that will put me into a trance. Some examples of what I've been listening to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWtELValvt0

Manchester born Miike Hayward AKA The Teknoist has been experimenting with the hardcore end of techno/tekno for nearly two decades putting out releases with veteran labels like Deathchant, Planet Mu, Ad Noiseam, Rebel Scum and via his own imprint Ninja Columbo. ‘Maximal Techno’ is the debut album from Miike under his ‘Technoist’ moniker and his first foray onto Love Love Records, exploring the versatility that can be found in slower tempos and deeper grooves. This is by no means traditional techno however with influences taken from all over the dance music landscape - Chunky kicks, big breaks, dubby licks, raw chops and epic electronica-style melodies. A more personal affair than other work of his, this album covers a wide range of feeling from aggression to introspection across ten tracks (eleven including the bonus track!) set to move the minds and feet of heady revellers. Despite its eclecticism Maximal Techno is in essence powerful dance music primed for the party, full of rushing euphoria reminiscent of early techno floorfillers on labels such as R&S and Warp. Out on June 21st CD and digital from BC: https://loveloverecords.bandcamp.com/album/maximal-techno-2 The clip sounds pretty good. For some reason reminds me of Chordata's Smackgull, an old but short NER gem which I love so high hopes on this one.

3x12" + digital, July 19th. Sounds good! Interesting shit. Orphx, Ghost in the Machine, SØS Gunver Ryberg etc. Check it out! "Done as part as The Netherlands Institute for Sound ( Nederlands Instituut voor Beeld en Geluid ) and Vision's RE:VIVE initiative. All tracks composed out re-sampled archival field recordings of Rotterdam taken from the Sound and Vision sound archive.

First full length by I Hate Models. Will be released on 3x12" / 2CD / digital by Perc Trax. Will be out on June 21st. "From the moment ‘Daydream’ from his very first vinyl release hit big in 2016 to opening his Perc Trax account in late 2018 with ‘Spreading Plague’ I Hate Models has been building towards this moment and now it is finally here. L’Âge Des Métamorphoses is not just the debut album from one of techno’s most important new artists, but it also represents a key step forward for both I Hate Models himself and the fusionist techno scene he has unwittingly become a figurehead of. I Hate Models’ music has always been expansive and widescreen in its vision, but the 12 tracks and 93 minutes of L’Âge Des Métamorphoses push this approach far further than ever before. Each track glides between melodic, vocal, percussive and acidic sections with ease, keeping interest high without ever dropping into locked techno loops. Just like the restless DJ style that has seen him play in clubs and festivals around the globe this album refuses to sit still for a moment, constantly twisting and turning as each track progresses to its destination, far away from the point where it started. Released as a 3×12″ vinyl album as well as a 2xCD set L’Âge Des Métamorphoses is one of Perc Trax’s most ambitious releases to date. Mastered in London by award winner mastering engineer Matt Colton and with all original artwork and design by fellow Frenchman Lucas Grassmay this is a huge release in every sense and one that will go on to define the current state of not just I Hate Models, but also of the Perc Trax label itself" Preorders from bandcamp: https://perctrax.bandcamp.com/album/l-ge-des-m-tamorphoses Boom boom boom bo-bo-boom boom boom
