joshuatxuk Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Out tomorrow on Erased Tapes Really digging this guy, dug Howl and all of the EPs that followed. Fits the same niche as Jon Hopkins, Daniel Avery, Floating Points and 00s era Border Community stuff for me...i.e. not overly experimental or leftfield but too discerning to be mainstream.

Lada Laika Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 This is nice stuff, agree with the Jon Hopkins comparison. Makes the wait for his upcoming a little more bearable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Member Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Yeah, it's nice. An amalgamation of trendy sounding stuff, but I'd be hard pressed to name the artist if I didn't know it was Rival Consoles. It's not bad or anything, it's just a bit bland?

joshuatxuk Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 It's not bad or anything, it's just a bit bland? The criticism of blandness is fair. At times, it's soy boy techno perfectly sanded off for NPR and BBC bumpers. No bite or verve. However, he really hits on some magic for me on the whole. yeah this - hopkins, floating points, and daniel avery hit the same niche. it's very clean and almost too well crafted, but as I said earlier but sometimes it just hits me in the feels. otherwise it's stuff that makes for worthwhile background music - worth checking out but often not in my shortlist of yearly favs this track from last year has the same effect - all of his stuff is great, not a fav album or anything, but this one track just fucking pulled me in for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuatxuk Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 guys I listen to stuff other than this, in fact Rival Console and his peers are a bit out of my usual zone do I need to start a Rephlex deep cuts thread or something oh wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
species8472 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 didn't do much for me. kind of sounded like a jon hopkins copycat. well produced, and should tick all the boxes, but left me bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
