The following are ongoing Ebay auctions:
Alder & Elius ? Parental Advisory (Skam) IDM
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=925899868
A Skam single featuring ?music created by Justin and Jesika? which was in
turn given titles like ?Bionic Vagina?, ?Digital Toddler? in a pleasing
enough lo-fi electro with found vocal sounds (crowds, movie dialogue,
obscene hip-hop toasting) context.
Diskono ? I?m So Bored With USA Vol. 2 IDM
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=925894409
Scotland's Diskono crew cram Kid 606, Brindle Spork, Andre Estermann, and
other lo-fi electricians together on the blue vinyl ?I?m So Bored With the
USA Volume 2? seven inch release. A fine collection of surealism/noise
art/post-dancefloor elektro on this 9 tracker.
Mellowtrons / Meat Beat Manifesto Skam IDM
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=926126964
A Meat Beat 12" on Skam? Both of the tunes on this release are slow with
dub-y bass lines, lots of blips and bleeps, some short atmospheric
interludes, weirded out intro and outro spoken samples, etc.
"Bittersweet.." is more bass driven with a heavy, distant beat loop. It's
good, but a little dull in comparison to the flipside. "Not Playing God..."
has a more upfront beat and more depth: scratches, samples, squelchy
keyboard lines and floaty atmospheres. All in all a decent 12?.
Aphex Twin ? Windowlicker 12? (Warp) IDM Skam
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=926130186
?Windowlicker? is curiously foreign and familiar, at once a stunning track
in its own right. A strangely Aphex take on soul the rhythm is a complex
melange of irregular anti-percussion and straight 4/4 electro, yet the
harmonized voices lovingly smeared across the body of the track are
incredibly seductive. The second piece, named with an indecipherable
mathematical equation, is a fantastic drum 'n' bass derivation, avoiding
most of the valueless excesses of the drill 'n' bass era yet with a
similarly destructive approach to music as we understand it, its agility and
dynamism is awe-inspiring. ?Nannou? is simply beautiful.
Isan ? Digitalis (Liquefaction) 12? IDM
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=926403235
This release follows the duo's exceptionally well-received 1998 LP
Beautronics on Tugboat. Seven new tracks that have similarities to Aphex
Twin, Boards of Canada and Add N to X. After five singles and the
aforementioned CD, this is probably their most polished work to date.
Thank you for reading.
