https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVcpAqnD-u4

the dj richard album is legit

yeah, loving it

haven't really engaged with it yet but expect to love it once i do

hate to say this but dial has been on a hot streak since that double pack of efdemin remixes

I mean the "Chicago" remixes, not" decay versions"

Why has no one told me about KiNK's "Diversion" before now?

just picked up the new helena hauff on werk. good shit! very dark.

No, not yet. Both are pretty familiar sounding, especially the first. Will post what they are when I do find out!

i loooooove this album so much, so pummeling, a good companion to the dj richard album

is it just me or could moments on the hauff album pass for miss kittin at her gothiest?

storming deep house track with electro synths discovered on this week's spotify fresh finds playlist:

Dorsia - Horatio
https://open.spotify.com/track/4HDWjDQFLpzkjujgaezbnl

youtube audio link:

i'm not that familiar with miss kittin's productions except for her big hits. seems to me the helena hauff album lacks the element of camp.

levon vincent on facebook

"Techno has never reminded me so much of heavy metal as todays' era. Where has the hint of Jazz influence gone? Afro-Cuban rhythms? Still, interesting stuff these days, but can a guy get a 7th chord once and again? Why has the scene shut down all the cultural collage, the melting pot, in favor of just, angst/ angry music? Im bored."

personally i have no idea WTF he's talking about, seems to me the jazzy & soulful to dark & banging ratio is more or less the same as it's ever been, i.e. it's low but you can always find detroit-influenced stuff if you look for it. in fact i think there's probably more of that stuff around than there's been at any time since the rise of minimal.

in the comments thread on resident advisor noted ilx alum disco nihilist says he was on hardwax for 3.5 hours and found five hot records. i feel like i have the opposite problem, i was just on hardwax for an hour a couple days ago and i felt like i had turned up dozens of things i wanted

sometimes i get in such a mood that i can't find anything i want to listen to, but it's never occurred to me to blame the rest of the world for that problem

i'm bored, TECHNO IS DEAD

nice one paolo

tim i'm not sure what you see in "diversion", i much preferred the title track

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0Z-PS2WZ_k

It's the peak tune on his Moscow Boiler Room set IMO.

tbh I like the weird experimental stuff that straddles the techno / drone metal line but honestly, that's not a huge segment of the music being released and is negligible compared to jazzy/afro-cuban stuff

sometimes if you're not finding things that meet your specific tastes it's time to branch out or open your eyes to things that fulfill your needs from a different direction

OTM. Has there EVER been a time when interesting records weren't being made by someone, somewhere. That kind of Disco Nihilist (aka pipecock jr.) logic is lazy to the point of, well, nihilism, if not just trolling, but is also really narcissistic - as if music is designed to gratify your specific and immediate tastes, and the world is wrong and needs to rise to your level. But mostly, denunciation is the lowest form of critique, especially when ignorance masquerades as prowess.

Arguably worse than that, though, is the quasi-scandal (and mostly I'm talking about the RA post) disingenuously built up around it. where does "i'm bored" (and NOT "I'm bored of techno) translate to "demigod levon vincent declares all techno dead, r.i.p. all techno." I mean, who fucking cares?

"this has been a bad year for music" / "no one is making good music" = "i am not seriously trying to find good music"
forever and ever amen

it's especially galling from someone whose job is partly to find the music that's not getting enough attention and bring it to people's notice
