The techno thread

That Maurizio rework of Lyot is so good.
That reminds me of CJ Bolland too, but Ultra mentioned R&S already.

jrkhnds · September 17, 2015, 2:29pm

you’re right, of course! got mixed up.

vogon · September 17, 2015, 3:31pm

DiegoSapiens · September 18, 2015, 2:01pm

feeling a bunch of new ones

i like the electroid vibes on this one. not overly retro either (well at least as “not overly retro” as electro can sound like)

http://www.redeyerecords.co.uk/vinyl/66229-code-is-law-008-mørbeck-t-r-i-p-s-
nothing groundbreaking but really well executed imo. definitely better than other contemporary hard techno blawan-by-the-numbers stuff out there

https://hypnus.bandcamp.com/album/zodiac
cassegrain mixes on this >>>> the rest are pretty forgettable tho

pole on point as always

mark fell, spaces and arad mixes off this >>

guess this would be more “idm” than anything but fuck it. heavy af and it’s james ruskin + mark broom so
also related, their ep on skam’s new sublabel kasm https://bleep.com/label/5269-kasm

herva’s track off that planet mu 20 years comp

nothing new but still p good for that sort of dusty analogue style. he was booked here like last week but cba to go

helena hauffs’s album sounds p promising tho i didn’t give it proper listen yet

AxeD · September 22, 2015, 6:55pm

Two in there that I haven’t heard yet so will definitely check those out.
And yeah Hauff’s album is well worth it. A dark take on that classic electro sound.
Some of it kind of reminded me of DAF and Charles Manier.

jrkhnds · September 22, 2015, 8:47pm

Super Future Kid is so sick. Really nailed that jacking techno vibe.

ultraspatial · September 22, 2015, 10:42pm

anyone else bored with the whole 130/livity w/e uk type techno?

still rate the productions like mistry so far has been on point and alex coulton’s tempa stuff is killer imo but a set or mix of that stuff is either too much (beneath’s shows are too boring) or with loads of bait former “uk bass” producers that jumped on the next thing http://electronicexplorations.org/?show=alex-coulton

as for livity, i think the novelty wore off by now imo.

maybe one for unpopular onions

AxeD · September 23, 2015, 10:33am

I was never a huge fan, but there’s still some great stuff coming from that corner imo.
I just got the new Simo Cell and I think that’s really something else. Think it still fits
in that category even though it’s not going to be on Livity

I’m not very familiar with Alex Coulton. Alex Cortex on the other hand…

ultraspatial · September 23, 2015, 10:39am

personally i don’t think that record’s doing anything different

AxeD · September 23, 2015, 10:45am

I thought that Soko-ban track sounded quite fresh, but yeah there’s probably stuff like it.

Have you heard that preview of the new Ansome on Perc Trax?

ultraspatial · September 23, 2015, 10:56am

nope

jrkhnds · October 1, 2015, 9:22am

new Acting Press up on redeye.

Rediscovering Umek’s stuff under the Zeta Reticula alias especially:

AxeD · October 14, 2015, 3:06pm

I’d say that’s electro, but yeah the old Umek stuff is pretty good.
Like pre 2005 I think.

BananaClips · October 14, 2015, 8:36pm

talking about livity, what do you guys think about the new kowton release?

jrkhnds · October 14, 2015, 10:49pm

meh.

it’s not that this stuff is boring, it’s just - where did all the dubbyness go? recent productions were all superclean, where as the quality making these plates interesting in the first place was their grittyness. (this applies to the new kowton aswell)
