i've heard most of those releases and they are almost all worthwhile, but
these are the best in my opinion... i've added brief comments:
quoted 2 lines Auch - Remix Tomorrow Goodbye
>Auch - Remix Tomorrow Goodbye
>Crane A.K. - Pink Eyed Pony
(these are both in the Force Inc minimal tech-house vein)
quoted 1 line Richard Devine - Aleamapper
>Richard Devine - Aleamapper
very impressive 3D sound warping from devine -- not very beat oriented at
all, kinda scary actually.
quoted 2 lines Electric Birds - Gradations
>Electric Birds - Gradations
>Gas - Koenigsforst
very lo-key stuff on mille plateaux ... EB is more beaty but the gas stuff
is great. i still prefer Zauberberg over any of his other ones but it's
worth grabbing Koenigforst too.
quoted 2 lines Kid 606 - PS I Love You
>Kid 606 - PS I Love You
>Kid 606 - PS You Love Me
(kid 606's MP releases which are decidedly more "mature", whatever that
means... more on the techno side and less concerned with mashups or crazy
breaks... PS You Love Me is all remixes from Atom Heart, Matmos, Pan
American, etc.)
quoted 1 line Machine Drum - Now You Know
>Machine Drum - Now You Know
hip-hop tinged IDM -- perhaps somewhere between Boards of Canada and
Prefuse73, very good stuff
quoted 1 line Stephan Mathieu - Wurmlock Variationen
>Stephan Mathieu - Wurmlock Variationen
excellent DSP piano interpretations on the ritornell label
quoted 1 line Phoenicia - Brownout
>Phoenicia - Brownout
my favorite phoenecia release of all, their least accessible too,
coincidentally. very tweaked sound...
quoted 2 lines Pole - Pole 2 (my favorite although all 3 are fairly similar)
>Pole - Pole 2 (my favorite although all 3 are fairly similar)
>Proem - Negativ (crunchy beats and minor chords -- done especially well)quoted 1 line Otto Von Schirach - 8000 BC
>Otto Von Schirach - 8000 BC
totally warped beats -- makes devine's "lipswitch" release seem tame and
coherent.
