The Caretaker Everywhere at the End of TimeThis album is amazing, especially stages 1-4, not so impressed by 5-6. I will probably never ever sit through this again though.The Field From Here We Go SublimeThe Prodigy The Fat of the LandTheo Parrish First FloorTrentemoller The Last ResortUNKLE Psyence FictionVessel Queen of Golden DogsWilliam Basinski The Disintegration Loops I0-15 minutes, interesting, 15-30 mins kind of boring, 30-45 mins okay this is pretty cool 45-1 hour, okay this hum and acceptance of reality and the emptiness of existence and time is bringing me to tears4.0 excellentA.A.L. (Against All Logic) 2017-2019Aphex Twin Drukqs4.3 - Points off for being bloated as hell, but points added for having amazing tracks like Vordhosbn, Jynweythek and Mt Saint Michel.Aphex Twin Come to DaddyHighlights are obviously Flim and IZ-US, the rest is not too shabby, Bucephalus has some amazing drum programming. Autechre Tri RepetaeBellaire Sunset BalladSuper fun and energetic album with an exotic feel.Bjork HomogenicBoards of Canada The Campfire HeadphaseFirst 5 songs are great, rest is kinda meh. But its BoC so obviously they get atleast a 4. Caribou SwimCom Truise Galactic MeltHas a purpose, serves it well, points for being ahead of the synthwave explosion that dominated the mid-2010s.Crystal Castles Crystal Castles IIDaft Punk DiscoveryDepeche Mode Violator4.3 - Album is growing on me. Policy of Truth and Blue Dress are amazing. Depeche Mode Black CelebrationAs with most DP albums, Gores ballads are sandwiched inbetween the foundational tracks and I always think they drag the album down. Black Celebration, Fly on the Windscreen, Stripped, Dressed in Black and New Dress are enough to warrant this atleast a 4.3 though. Emeralds Does It Look Like I'm Here?Extrawelt Extra Welt Hits 2005 - 2020Soopertrack, 8000 and Neuland are highlights here and some of my favourite techno songs ever.

Squarepusher Hard Normal DaddyTalaboman The Night LandTears for Fears Songs from the Big Chairgrew on me alot grew on me alot grew on me alot alot grew on me me on grew alot gru on gru alot gru on mi mi The Future Sound of London LifeformsThe Human League Dare!The Knife Deep CutsSome obvious classics but the basic ass production leaves alot to be desired. Thievery Corporation The Mirror ConspiracyUnderworld dubnobasswithmyheadmanGreat melodies and hooky, great synthwork, super well produced but... a little safe maybe, I cant really think of any moments that wow me or that I want to go back to, and way too long, STITI will always be my favourite. Whitehouse Bird Seed3.5 greatAndreas Tilliander World IndustriesAndy Stott Faith in StrangersArca KicK iiiArca is a genius at what she does but she often stumbles into the problem of demanding alot from you without giving you much fun while listening, there is alot of cool ideas here but its so close to giving me a headache too. Wish she wouldnt be afraid to strip back and lighten up a bit. Sometimes music is the silence inbetween the notes.Arca KICK iiFirst half is great, kind of loses steams in the middle, and that Sia song is so mid and totally out of place, first time I have been truly dissapointed with an Arca song.Astral Projection Trust in TranceAutechre Draft 7.30Avicii TrueBarker UtilityDisclosure SettleA bit too safe and accessible but not too daring which makes it quite dull after a few listens, you get some clean and solid garage, house beats and alot of great features and thats about it. Help Me Lose My Mind will always be nostalgic to me though. FKA Twigs LP1Goldfrapp Black CherryHoney is sweet and drips slowly, but I cant have an entire jar of it at once. Black Cherry is a heartbreaking and wonderful song though full of regret and nostalgia.Hudson Mohawke ButterJessy Lanza Pull My Hair BackJoy Orbison Hyph Mngo/Wet LookLotic HeteroceteraMat Zo Damage ControlMax Cooper Yearning for the InfinitePerpetual Motion is the standout track here. I just think the rest sounds a little run of the mill glitch-wise and not engaging enough. Mount Kimbie Crooks & LoversSuperb production but ultimately nothing more than that, I understand this albums importance and influence though. Edit: Growing on me. NOISIA Outer EdgesOneohtrix Point Never Garden of DeleteForgoes the brevity of Replica in an attempt to be unique, I find myself coming back to only a handful of songs. Ezra, Sticky Drama and Animals are the highlights. Portishead DummyRustie Glass SwordsSurph is ultimately the only thing I will come back to here, points for overall uniqueness though. Ryoji Ikeda SupercodexSecond Woman S/WCool stuff but a bit cold and underdeveloped, hope to see these guys expand on these experiments more. Sophie Oil of Every Pearl's Un-InsidesAbrasive, mechanical and groundbreaking but ultimately a chore to listen to. If she wasn't taken away from us so early she would have improved alot I'm sure. RIP Sophie. Suzanne Ciani Seven WavesTeebs ArdourThe Bug London ZooThe Flashbulb Kirlian SelectionsKirlian Isles II is one of my favourite songs of 2021 but the album as a whole is pretty much just decent. Benn Jordan has an awesome Youtube channel though that you should check out!The Prodigy Music for the Jilted GenerationVoodoo People, Poison and Speedway are amazing and forever classic but the rest is quite dated.3.0 goodActress SplazshQuite inconsistent, some gems like Hubble, Always Human and Purrple Splazsh but also quite a few disappointments.Airhead & James Blake PembrokeAmnesia Scanner TearlessAphex Twin Selected Ambient Works Volume IINumber 3, 7, 19 are great, but definitely my least listened to AFX album. Arca KiCk iRiquiqui is awesome but on the whole it falls apart. Deadmau5 For Lack of a Better NameYes, this album was important for developing my taste back in 2010 but as a whole its very underdeveloped, it has very little actual material.Djrum Portrait with FirewoodHolly Herndon PlatformIglooghost Neo Wax BloomSo much going on and so dense that it basically becomes impossible for any song to stick to your memory, alot of white noise metaphorically speaking. Kornel Kovacs Hotel KokoNOISIA Split The AtomSkrillex Scary Monsters and Nice SpritesIn retrospect... I mean, it certainly has its stand out tunes, unfortunately the mixing and sound selection is quite atrocious. It may have sounded like something new at the time but really he just took already existing ideas and sounds from artists like Justice, Noisia, Deadmau5 and Rusko that sound way better than this. Not to mention that it spawned the demonic child that is brostep. I cant give it an average because it definitely jumps out the speaker even though it does so mostly in a kind of annoying fashion.Steve Aoki WonderlandThis album is hilariously bad, the only reason I dont rate it awful is because its also hilariously fun.2.5 averageBicep Bicepugh, didnt impress much at all, will it give a few more spins and see if it grows on meBooka Shade MovementsBurial UntrueThis never connected with me much. I think there are way better garage/dubstep/bass albums and artists. FaltyDL HardcourageFlying Lotus You're Dead!Forest Swords Compassionthis sounds embarrasingly alot like trailer music for every video game out there and I cant stand thatFred Again.. Actual Life 3 (January 1 - September 9 2022)Heres a rundown on the problems with this artist/album 1.this style is not new or innovative, in fact its played out, 2.There is no texture or love put into the sounds here, its just very sloppy sound selection 3.There is barely any interesting arrangementHuerco S Colonial PatternsJam City Classical CurvesKaskade Strobelite SeductionLaurel Halo DustMono/Poly Golden SkiesPantha Du Prince Black NoiseRabit CommunionScorn Evanescence2.0 poorCamellia crystallizedFront 242 Front By FrontItal Tek HollowedNitzer Ebb That Total AgeSoulwax Nite Versions
