It’s precisely for this reason that I haven’t actually listened to this album anywhere near as much as I’d want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah kind of shitty. But a lot of Gerard’s stuff is limited - sadly the reason I’ve missed some. That being said...this is a phenomenal album worth the $$. Also have tracked down digis for regular listening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
species8472 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 i got the vinyl but does suck there is no dig. there is an excellent rip kicking around if you look in the right places. would be extremely happy for a repress of convextion self titled. long overdue.

whosebrian Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Digital would be nice, the pressing on the second batch was subpar. As a result I just listen to the rip instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphology - Urania's Mirror Soul Oddity - Tone Capsule (maybe not traditional electro) Elektroids - Elektroworld Cygnus - Radical User Interfaces (EP) Photodementia LP Lowfish - Memories Are Uncertain Friends Agree on the Dopplereffekt. And of course any Kraftwerk or Model 500. ...off the top of my head. I'm sure I'm missing a ton. Or just track down every ERP remix/one-off/ep while your at it. They are all good.

dcom Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I have to admit that although I have most of Hanson's discography I get very easily bored with ERP, the sound is so self-similar on these albums that they get relegated to background ambience.

The album material doesn't have as much variance as the EPs do, Hanson's production values are on point but in general his sound is very safe compared to some more adventurous electro producers. ERP is almost always recognizable as ERP, but I couldn't for the life of me name most of his tracks if you played them to me.

kuniklo Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 No digitals means I ignore it. Sorry there’s just way too much great new music coming out right now to leave any room for that kind of elitism or arrogance. I won’t even bother to look for a rip. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I feel you and generally feel this way as well. It’s just annoying as a fan who does not want to dust off a record player not to hear this music. The shame of it is that it is an excellent album, so I still listen to my rip regularly, rather than lossless files I should have got for shelling out for this 2LP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pulled the albums from the shelf and gave them a thorough, mindful listen: Hanson's production values are dotting the i's and crossing the t's, and he's firmly in my category of top electro producers. Nevertheless, on Exomoon almost all tracks have the same/similar bass sound he's been using and re-using for ages, and the bass patterns and chord progressions have enough in common to be well nigh interchangeable; the percussion sounds and patterns, too. Afterimage has more variance, though the bass sound and basic patterns make an appearance on a track or two there as well. I'm not saying that he is making the same track over and over, but there is certainly an oft-used recipe he varies. These things make his sound instantly recognizable, but to me, many of the tracks blend into one. Edited December 13, 2020 by dcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear what you are saying about the similarities between the tracks - but the same thing could be said for many electro artists. Anyway - props for giving an extra listen.
