so feel free to totally ignore this rambling, as many of you are hopefully
accustomed to doing when i post this shit
but i have been sort of charting a very specific trail through idm lately
in my purchases, looking for a certain vein of sound in the idm world that
i can't really think of what to call or how to classify it
basically i am looking for rhythmically complex tracks with a dark or
ambivalent sort of vibe to them. releases/artists in this vein that i'm
describing would be :
the fear ratio - refuge of a twisted soul
(also Light Box, but Light Box is more in a Black Dog type vein with it's
melodies)
pretty much anything by Autechre
pretty much anything by Richard Devine
Vaetex - Libet Tones (Rob Clouth material is too warm melodically)
Arovane - Aarlenpeers EP (other Arovane is too warm melodically)
Aphex Twin - DrukQs (the electronic/non acoustic tracks only)
Application - System Fork
(all Application releases, really)
Grischa Lichtenberger (all)
AOKI Takamasa - Monad IX release
Objekt - Flatland (and some other misc stuff which isn't dubsteppy)
Steinvord
Syndrone (all)
Yaporigami - Drudged Torn Routine
Less so but still related:
misc Venetian Snares tracks from throughout his catalog
Speedy J - Shocking Hobby/Public Energy No. 1
Mika Vainio - Kilo
Pan Sonic - Gravitoni
Carter Tutti Void - f (x)
JK Flesh - Nothing's Free
Does this at all resonate with anyone else?
