Rolling weird music // time travel // unclassifiable 2021

xps i struggled to get into the spirit of the beehive album initially but after putting on the headphones for a midnight walk yesterday it really worked

insanely good album from a trio of musicians all doing great solo things as well

https://cachedmedia.bandcamp.com/album/futurangelics

this rules

love more eaze, the other 2 are new to me

dntel's been making amazing music forever (hit it big with a very popular duo in the 2000s and has been doing the right thing since then), brin's been pretty active for the last couple years doing sensory percussion stuff

this is also very good: https://colinalexanderfisher.bandcamp.com/album/reflections-of-the-invisible-world

^ liking this
front cover typeface too, looks like david rudnicks sorta stuff
will check out olenka szymonski

Glad Colin's getting some love--he's a good friend of mine and in add'n to guitar he plays saxophone in a good am't of other projects here in Toronto incl. the odd-time-sig big band I lead
(forgive the self-promo, but it's maybe of interest to get a sense of our local left-field scene here):
https://kunudusuvuntu.bandcamp.com/album/p-a-n-d-e-m-o-s-1-10

Also xp while I haven't checked out the above collab release yet, there are a handful of tracks on the new Dntel album proper that particularly wowed me: https://dntel.bandcamp.com/track/after-all

here's another really nice/strange time travel type thing: https://obligations.bandcamp.com/releases

I guess this is more of a pop record than time travel (and it's from last year) but whatever, it's cool: https://yosapeit.bandcamp.com/album/phyton

enjoying this OSR/blanche blanche blanche-adjacent mutantish chamber pop by perfect angels: https://laloi.bandcamp.com/album/exit-from-the-ultra-world

Listening to that Yosa Peit record and I love it so far, definitely fits my definition of what this thread should be for. More mutated pop, please. (Am also tempted to steal heftily from this thread for my next radio show, sorry not sorry.)

first day back to work for a while and plenty to check out in this thread

something i enjoyed in the interim

and

https://primordialvoid.bandcamp.com/album/crooner-qui-coule-sous-les-clous

These are some of the better things I've heard in a while

Re: that perfect angels record, it's really nice even tho it's mining the same sound that I feel every lazy musician is mining these days (or the past 5 years or whatever), but this project is done way better

new giant claw!
https://orangemilkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/mirror-guide

rules, not expecting it to take an acoustic/folk direction, reminds me of some of colleen's stuff

obsessed with this record right now:

https://goatytapes.bandcamp.com/album/non-g-m-o-rain-dance

New Cucina Povera record sounds excellent at first cursory listen: https://primordialvoid.bandcamp.com/album/lumme

80 minutes of microtonal vapour-tinged synths, samples, and beats from my former PhD supervisor: https://jeffstadelman.bandcamp.com/album/signaling

Interview here: https://infrasonicpress.com/2021/04/10/jeff-stadelman-interview/

Dig that, thanks!

Cool, glad you like it!

been a bit ill with the covid so lots to listen to here

first walk in a while yesterday was to this https://birthdayass.bandcamp.com/album/head-of-the-household

v pleasant

that lucy gooch album is so good!

new fire toolz is insanely sick

https://fire-toolz.bandcamp.com/album/eternal-home

Just listening to Birthday Ass and it's exactly what I need right now. Thanks nxd.

These are both weird although structurally the songs are pretty tight:
https://siliconeprairie.bandcamp.com/album/my-life-on-the-silicone-prairie
https://freakgenes.bandcamp.com/album/power-station

And there's a new Black Dice track:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYMuTj9ZMOs

love it

xps that new fire-toolz album is incredible, what a journey

I like this
https://hypnotizing-chickens.bandcamp.com/album/im-on-time

That has deep early-to-mid 2000s energy, reminds me of Gang Wizard.

Yeah, I can see '00s no wave in there. Fun stuff.

Still doing my radio show, feel like it's been long enough since I flogged it here: https://www.mixcloud.com/citybeatradio/cryptophasia-021/

That's last month's show. Got another one coming up very soon and I've been too disorganised/preoccupied/depressed to really do much listening for it, so who knows how it'll go ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've often found that it's those shows where I'd really pull it off, but when I was prepared, the show could easily go to shit. Hope you experience the same!

new tonstartssbandht is so good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPDqH9lv-Q0

<3 tonstartssbandht so much

https://sarahdavachi.bandcamp.com/album/antiphonals

adore this record, listened to it 3 times today
sleep inducing (in a good way)

Well this is the best experimental album I’ve heard in a minute

https://rancapduoi.bandcamp.com/album/ng-ng-y-ngay-ng-y-t-n-th

Oh hell yeah, that's some cool shit.

I'm pretty selective when it comes to glitchy experimental bc so much of it plods and kinda goes nowhere, but yea this sounds like it might be cool.

Well, if we're posting that kind of thing, I'll crosspost something that I also posted to the post-post-post-deconstructed thread, this new 43-track audio sketchbook from Giza's 1127— traditional Egyptian music meets club music and noise. Unsettling and unpredictable, has made me think something is wrong with my speakers more than once. https://1127.bandcamp.com/album/bedroom-adrenalean-post-kovidclub

yeah despite ziurs behind the scenes presence idk it sounded weird and unclassifiable enough to me. bass level is def ‘club’ but it balances out the treble so it’s not as fatiguing as so much glitchy stuff is

yeh the ran cap album rules
been obsessed with 'images' for the last month

it’s really good. wonder how much ziur changed the initial sound. whatever happened it’s great

tables link is fire as well

The guy's last record on Nashazphone is really good, too.

loving this

https://hyphyskazerbox.bandcamp.com/album/headache-bait

Yeah the Ran Cap record is sick.

The new-ish Crazy Doberman record is really fucking me up right now, good shit, for fans of No-Neck and the sort of free ritual music they do.. https://astraldoberman.bandcamp.com/album/everyone-is-rolling-down-a-hill-or-the-journey-to-the-center-of-some-arcane-mystery-and-the-entanglements-of-the-vines-and-veins-of-the-cosmic-and-unwieldy-millieu-encountered-in-the-midst-of-tha

feel like this new album from Tropical Trash-spinoff group Equipment Pointed Ankh is a better new Black Dice album than the new Black Dice album: https://astralepa.bandcamp.com/album/without-human-permission

Machine Girl has been a busy doggie

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGnfL-js05A

There's 3, shortly 4 albums in the Prolaps Ultra Cycle. Now drowning gloriously in the third. All on Bandcamp and Spotify. Start at the beginning tho and let the insane avant-breaks odyssey begin

glorious

Listened to part 2 of the third one just now. It builds in the most amazing way, just keeps getting better and better

Were you the one who recommended SEWERSLVT last year, imago?

I wasn't! I've not really heard their stuff but I'm willing to try it. Was at a L'Rain gig just now btw, pretty great

For some reason it seems in the same wheelhouse as the Prolaps thing.

It was RYM-boosted avant-house with an explicitly queer agenda, so definitely the right wheelhouse yeah

eureka

https://liilasounds.bandcamp.com/album/soundness-of-mind

Advance tracks on this are v good; riyl RIO/heavy jazz-rock fusion: https://cuneiformrecords.bandcamp.com/album/ur-hd-24-96

I'm enjoying Stice, apparently related to the above-mentioned Machine Girl (who I haven't heard yet). First it was the fangs that drew me in, but now I find the tunes popping into my head every day, and I don't even mind!

I have been loving the Tara Clerkin Trio EP from a couple of months ago. Trip-hoppy autumnal vibes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMAWTNZ321c

Tara Clerkin Trio - Done Before - this is my fave. It's not that trip-hoppy though

And this EP from the excellent bassæ

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jzo8wBeUT8

bassæ — d

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsIN8KVPZG4

this one from death's dynamic shroud is good

yes, superb

holy shit @ Last Minutes Of The Memory

really love that dds album
fleshed out version of my two highlights of classroom sexxtape; 'rare emoji collection' and 'side'

some gorgeous gamalan:

https://divisi62.bandcamp.com/album/malar

"Uwalmassa shape their relationship with various forms of musical heritage into technical and stylish forms on Malar, marrying acoustic sonics with a contemporary outlook that reflects their Indonesian identity; evolving, mutating, and scavenging traditions to draw parallels to dance music, and to test the adaptability and flexibility of those sounds.

Here the collective go dark and deep in their first album-length collaboration with Mana, casting long shadows and moving snake style at speed across nine tracks. Using a mix of synthetic and acoustic instruments - the texture of Malar feels enigmatic, occasionally industrial, and the result magical in its mystery and fluctuating impact."

time travel is over. choose your path and choose it wisely

rolling careerist hacks, awkward pandering, transparently manipulative thread 2022

rolling twenty-something RYM/internet stuff like hyperpop, hypnagogic pop, hexD, vaporwave, dungeon synth, cloud rap, nightcore, black midi, future funk, dariacore, seapunk, blown out anime voices, br

tbf this feels like it belongs more to the former, not being hypergarbage

Ooh, dark gamalan sounds. This is great so far.
