joshuatxuk Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Eris Drew is the only one I recognize but the article is hitting on a trend I've seen a lot lately. Surprised Octo Octa, George Clanton, Machinegirl, or Firetoolz weren't mentioned. Rave style nods and breakbeats have been embraced in quite a lot of underground releases off Orange Milk, 100% ELectronica, 100% Silk, LIES, 1080p, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hello spiral Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 Quote a redress to a scene that remained stubbornly white, straight, male and stale Author of said article ticks at least two of these boxes. I think it might be self flagellation for association with a known CANCELLED artist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splbt Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 breakbeat is the new brostep in 3...2...1... to be fair, gabriel is a bit late on the ball considering breaks have needled their way into mainstream electronica since 2017 or so... bicep i'm looking at you. glue is a pretty good track though. new sincerity is, on the other hand, probably ripe for picking now. irony never left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
