Ok, following up my Crunch post, i want to give a recommended for listening
thread for you all.
First and foremost BUY CRUNCH - 1
Check out
Machine Drum - Now You Know (MERCK)
This is up there with crunch, as far as its good, but its style is
totally different. This LP is a GOOD example of how DSP can be used in IDM.
Lots of fucked up beats with rap samples and sad melodies layered. May
sound like a weird combination, but machine drum pulls it off flawlessly.
*****
Solar X - Outre X Mer
Ha, this is a bit of an oddity. It comes from Art-Tek Records, Moscow.
It was a MC (tape) only release, and released only in SMALL QUANTITIES, but
nonetheless is very good. Its from the early 90's, and it sounds like
Selected Ambient Works 85-92, but the style is different. A very good
early-ambient recording, sucks that its hardly available outside Moscow/St.
Petersburg. Although if you dig enough you will find a copy
Funckarma - Part 4
I was introduced to funckarma via a live bootleg i got off napster. It
was sweet as hell, so i got PArts 1 and 2. They sucked BIG time, and i
almost passed up on part 4. However, Part 4 is COMPLETELY different from
the other two parts. Part 4 is so stylistically different from everything
else i have ever heard, i love it completely. Vast melodies layered over
would-be idm percussion, but always drawn back to the funckarma-sound. Very
original, not anything like parts 1 and 2.
