I know the Bip-Hop Generation v1 has been around for a few months but
i've only had a chance to get into it recently. Marumari's warm
ploding 'a girl i met at the rest stop' is a beautiful start. The
next highlight is the muted melodic noodlings of Schneider TM with
their 'kptm b diskursive.' The comp then takes a microsound direction
with three sterile minimal tracks from Massimo & Goem. Next comes the
Ultra-Milkmaids with unique oscillating stutter-tones accented by
accoustic & processed guitar. The comp finishes returning to the more
idm-friendly sounds with two rather manic tracks from Phonem. A nice
collection of tracks bringing together artists i would not have
expected to see on the same compilation.
On Bip-Hop Generation v2, the trend of experimental meets idm
continues this time bringing togethers artists like arovane and
b.fleischmann with more experimental artists like kohn, wang inc, and
warmdesk. The v.2 starts with two darker introspective tracks from
b.flesichmann highlighted by the gurgling electronics of 'under.'
next is a fantastic 10-minute epic from arovane called 'plecq' that
just overflows with melodies. After arovane, bip-hop newcomer
Warmdesk delivers four tracks complex electronica at times similar to
phthalocyanine other times closer to senking. Kohn follows with three
short pieces/loops and a dreamy analog track entitled 's-for hubert.'
Wang Inc also delivers a few short pieces/loops as well as the
clickety melodic 'three note melody' and the very
"paris-at-4am-sounding" 'sadness for the number.' laurent pernice
winds-down the comp with three very different styled tracks and Wang
Inc finishes with a repeat of two of their short pieces/loops from
earlier in the comp. Another solid edition to the Bip-Hop Generation
series that, as it's predecessor did, should appeal to a wide range
of experimental electronic music listeners.
