markedone Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 (edited) how'd i miss this. its nonstop belt-ran belt-ers it also sounds like for this magicwire release, the pads have a bit of lone-influence, especially on bad minds and angel Edited June 29, 2020 by markedone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watmmisdead Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 watmm is seriously sleeping on this. well I cant blame you, i was too. this album really impressed me and been on repeat since two weeks. even his ambients tracks on here are great. a moment away from you is such a special track. masterpiece. have that je-ne-sais-quoi in the melodies that is just visceral to me. then this fun kinda track and the finale, what a way to finish this album. soft summer, the strings at the end, the melodies, wouah, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoid-666 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Amazing release. Also check out the last track on his most recent release if you like his Placid Angel stuff. https://stasisrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/la-man-ana-ep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be all over it but I cry when I see that the cost to ship it to mexico is as much as the record itself https://instituteofadvancedthinking.net/product/placid-angles-first-blue-sky/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully someone else has more exhaustive knowledge, but from my limited dive> The previous release under Placid Angles is also great - The Cry (1997) Ten Days of Blue (1996) is amazing, a classic ambient techno release. But sidenote; John recommends not to buy the reissue or digital from Peacefrog records, in what seems to be an unfortunate / exploitative rights-holding situation. Read https://www.residentadvisor.net/news/42370 He has lots of stuff @ https://johnbeltranmusic.bandcamp.com/releases, i woud also like someone to give me a primer. There are a few other watmm threads for recent releases, can consult those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
species8472 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 his recent delsin stuff is really nice. "the season series" and especially "hallo androiden". a collection of ambient works came out a while ago called "ambient selections" which is awesome. earlier stuff on delsin is just ok. but yeah, older stuff - the cry, ten days of blue, indio (which is being reissued this month on vinyl). he also just dropped a ton of eps all on different labels. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
