Rubin Farr Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 I'm not sure if anything topped the Blanck Mass album IMO, it had the perfect blend of adrenaline, melody, and accessible pop sensibility, but there were plenty of others: Blanck Mass - Dumb Flesh Alva Noto - Xerrox Vol. 3 AFX - ODS 06-08 Battles - La Di Da Di Black Channels - Two Knocks For Yes (Mixtape) Colundi EveryOne Cosmic Neighbourhood - Collages I Death and Vanilla - To Where the Wild Things Are...

Npoess Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Think this has been quite underwhelming, especially compared to last year, only thing that comes to kind right now: Garden of Delete Hopefully Burial will release something in December to save this mess.

Soloman Tump Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Some good stuff this year. But I found more great music being released through EPs and bandcamp rather than through full albums (sign of the times I guess). Great year for EPs / 12" singles though, more so than in the past few years. Last year I struggled to form a top 10 albums because there was so much stuff; this year there may not be enough candidates.

MDF Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I've not even begun to delve into any of Mike's dump yet. So much music, not enough time.... Mu-Ziq - Soundcloud Dump Well it has a bit of everything, from his very early stuff onwards, but there is certainly a few albums worth of great stuff in there overall and I have only heard around 3/4 of it. Like you say there is too much to get through and digest this year, especially with the massive soundcloud dumps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 The one that immediately comes to mind (though not sure if it's just as it's the most recent) is the [many times aforementioned] OPN - G.O.D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr lopez Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 ^ you're just listing things you listened to ANYWAY G.O.D. is nowhere NEAR my fav. weird, lots of good music this year but very few "albums" that come to mind if I have to think of my fav I think Orb - Moonbuilding and Jlin - Dark Energy i listened to the most but if people are throwing in the soundcloud dump then by golly it would OBVIOUSLY be the 9 (!) autechre live soundboards that we have. I mean how can anyone actually compete with that???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cear Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 nope... well yes, but lots of it didn't make it to that list this is a nomination-thread after all.. right? also i misspelled Bahdeni Nami and The Gasman - Archive should be added too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I think Orb - MoonbuildingStill not heard that yet - been meaning to pick up a copy since release. Bought all their other albums so no idea why I haven't ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malaria Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 NHK - Program Fuck, totally missed this; ordering now, thanks! Jlin - Dark Energy Annnd also forgot about this one; seconding the Jlin nomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Jan Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Most of my fave braindance releases this year are series rather than stand alone releases: AE_LIVE, Colundi sequence, EODS, AFX soundcloud, Legowelts Nightwind releases and I also discovered the Sensate Focus series this year too although that doesn't count obviously. Beyond that I'd say:CN - The Derelict Kerrier District 4 OPN - Garden of Delete Mark Fell and Gabor Lazar - The Neurobiology of Moral Decision Making Morgan Ågren - Batterie Deluxe Lugubrum - Herval J.K. – GEA Russell Haswell - As Sure As Night Follows Day Elektrobopacek - La Porte Mathématique Aphex Twin – Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments Pt2 Aquarian Foundation - Mind Miniatures Carter Tutti Void - f(x) Frank Zappa – Roxy: The Movie (The Soundtrack) Doug Hream Blunt - My Name Is Doug Hream Blunt EP's AFX - orphaned deejay selek 2006-2008 Black Spider Clan - Totale Finsternis Lord Of The D - Dunstable Trax EP Luke Vibert - I Love Acid 003 Cygnus - Radical User Interfaces Subject to change, most likely forgetting a few gems here. Pretty sure that colundi takes the cake though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
