the wolf müller & niklas wandt album is fun, kind of splits the difference between the 'tropical drums of deutschland' comp and schulte's bufiman stuff

I hadn't realised that Schulte and Bufiman were the same person but it makes total sense

Great mix from one of my faves:https://soundcloud.com/factmag/fact-mix-653-shalt-may-18
I've been gravitating away from the super noisy end of things, my ears can't take it, but his choice of textures are always almost soothing, while still being distorted and mangled. (one of mine in there too, full disclosure)
Also, new on NON, I like the idea of this (apparently all sounds generated with saxophone initially but processed beyond recognition):https://nonworldwide.bandcamp.com/album/alex-zhang-hungtai-divine-weight

not to direct people away from ilx but i noticed that Patten put together this new message board that seems like it's filled with people who pay attention to this sort of stuff. kind of dissensus-y, but more critical of the Reynolds/Fisher ethos
https://forum.555-5555.org/
― austinb, Friday, 8 June 2018 00:33 (five years ago) link
imo dissensus always was really dry in how they talked about music, any personal reactions were about as deep as “this is a tune”kind of wonder what the new dubstepforum is tbh. probably... dsf

I like that but I don't know if at the end of the day I totally understand some of this rolling experimental electronic misfit club music. Stuff like that, part of me is like, when does the beat drop? I know how cliche that is but like, there's no reason for their not to be a beat! It's beautiful melodic techno. Throw in a kick drum for us. I see the promo calls it "DJ tools" but that's what B-sides are for.

https://nathanmoody.bandcamp.com/album/tudes-i-blue-box
bit of an older release (2017), but still engaging -
"This first volume features a very small Eurorack synthesizer, using primarily Mannequins brand modules and a touchplate keyboard. Every track is played live with no overdubs."
this struck me with its exciting timbres / energy, again, exploring modular synthesis.
