Daedelus - Bespoke

Amon Tobin - ISAM

Instra:mental - Resolution 653

2562 - Fever

Sandwell District – Feed Forward

DeepChord - Hash-bar Loops

 

Also.. I would like to add that this year has been really dull in terms of music to me. I like the releases I've mentioned, but there's nothing that's been really that mindblowing to me.

does anyone else think ISAM kind of maybe sucks man balls? and I love tobin.

 

i love Tobin as well. one of the artists that got me into electronic music.

but after countless listenings i just can't find anything that grabs even my attention.

 

edit: talking about ISAM, of course

 

Heh, it's the first album of his that's really grabbed me off the bat, though I've only ever heard select tracks off his older albums. Never understood the hype until now. It seems most of my favorite albums end up being the ones the majority of fans and critics are lukewarm on, funny enough.

Got to say I haven't been bowled over so far this year.

 

I have Heckers Ravedeath but it's not my summer vibe so haven't played it much.

 

Radioheads King of Limbs is great and I mean to get Fucked Up's newie. But tbh Battles Gloss Drop is a favorite so far.

Beastie Boys - Hot Sauce Committee P2

Radiohead - KOL

 

Two albums I actually paid money for the physical CD.

 

Everything else has been mining prior years for shit I missed - in particular Olivia Tremor Control - Black Foliage. Christ what an awesome album.

Not nearly as good as last year for music, which was probably my favorite year for new music since 2001, but this year has had some solid releases. Here are some of my favs, I'm definitely moving away from IDM and Dubstep and listening to more "poppy" stuff lately.
