| enter electronic underground (3)
been quite busy with work so haven't been able to engage in as much sput as I would have liked the past few months sadface.jpg. here's a list of electronic digs of mine so far this year though! some new and some (slightly) old. what have you been listening to? ALSO i just hit 1000 comments (only took me 7 years lol). | | 1 |  | Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith
The Kid
this album is just etched in my mind right now after seeing her perform last night. mesmerising live show and an absolute sweetheart to talk to as well. (experimental/synth/art pop) | | 2 |  | DJ Koze
knock knock
always on top. (tech-house/hip-hop/disco) | | 3 |  | Gabor Lazar
Unfold
super fun mish-mash of two-step, electro, techno, bass - in other words physical and jamming club tracks again. for fans of errorsmith and general mad drum programming. (club) | | 4 |  | rRoxymore
Thoughts of an Introvert Pt. 2
quirky engaging techno. 'Mythical Technology' will be one of my tracks of the year. (techno/electro) | | 5 |  | Various Artists (Electronic)
Flowers from the Ashes
man italians just know how to do that atmospheric techno. (mindful brooding vibes) | | 6 |  | Monolithic
Herbie
lo-fi/outsider house I occasionally feel gets a bit tedious. but gotta recognise when it's done well. really nice use of samples, lush twinkly synths and mad groovy basslines - great production all round - will be one of my singles of the year. (deep house/lo-fi) | | 7 |  | Various Artists (Electronic)
Permahigh: World Music Day
as far as club music goes, there isn't much more exciting than the assortment of bassy, experimental sounds that come out of labels like permahigh. features another stunning track from "LOFT" and a whole lot more. (techno/club/experimental) | | 8 |  | Burnt Friedman
Anthology 1980-2017
just read that burnt friedman and jaki liebezeit (drummer of Can) had a long-standing collaboration. no wonder, this is pure rhythms. (percussive, dub, ambient, techno, jungle) | | 9 |  | Tropical Interface
OM1
hit up a strong russian grime vibe couple months back. epitome of the niche is Tropical Interface's 'Orchid EP' listen for a taste of the heftiest of bangers. he's taken that sound and held it back (slightly) for his first album. (bass, grime) | | 10 |  | Moodymann
Pitch Black City Reunion
the title track. get yourself in the sun and bliss out. (house, jazz) | | 11 |  | Other Lands
Pattern Transform
a range of atmosphere here, from the eery and gorgeous opener to the almost summery dancefloor house jam that makes the third track. just an incredibly deep and rewarding listen. (house, ambient) | | 12 |  | Jon Hopkins
Singularity
not much to say about this that hasn't already been said. my opinion is that the first 4 tracks are the perfect representation of his sound and no one can really match that. kudos jon (microhouse) | | 13 |  | Kelly Lee Owens
Oleic
came across this after her incredible LP debut last year. love the dancefloor vibe - mixin those thick bouncing lows, that ethereal voice and at the end she makes it all sound so plush (tech-house) | | 14 |  | Szare
Kodiak / Translocated
some solid manchester techno mindfukery, essential 2018 listen. (techno/bass/industrial) | |
Relinquished
05.12.18 | nice | luci
05.12.18 | nice picks! didn't dig the rroxymore on first listen but i'll revisit. that flowers from the ashes comp rules, especially the closer by neel. will check 6, 10, 11.
what i'm listening to: the new skee mask lp is stunning, dreamy breakbeat makes for one of the most unique listens this year | Zeneren
05.12.18 | thanks guys!
Trying to find time to differentiate/filter all these releases that keep funnelling out. Lucid, just checked your list of recent digs lots of good stuff you can probably recommend me. absolutely can't wait for that skee mask album decided against buying it but will stream as soon as its released | Chortles
05.12.18 | mmmm some of these look like real goodies for sure. i'll probably end up listening to most of this but 5 and 7 have piqued my interest the most, excited to dive in
if you've got 3 hours to kill you should check the new LP/mix hybrid Efdemin put out, wall to wall bangers and dark, calculated vibes there. other than that, koze and a few other irregulars, i haven't been playing too much 2018 stuff though | Zeneren
05.12.18 | def recommend 7, some really cool upcoming artists that deserve your attention.
Yeah will listen to the Efdemin album, put the first few tracks on this morning the start and sounded like i'll enjoy it! | Chortles
06.08.18 | been looving 5. probably biased because i already love lucy and neel but man are the rest of those tracks fire as well. A+ broods | Zeneren
06.10.18 | listen to 11 guys | luci
06.10.18 | oh damn I forgot to check these before putting up my list. just heard 11, sweet stuff (especially Side B). on the next~ |
