well, safety scissors' album "parts water" is fucking
excellent... lots of reviews call it 80's sounding but
to me that's lazy and i think that the dntel remix is
pretty well indicative of what you're in for with
safety scissors- bouncy vocal tech pop that manages
to look at the future through an aged lens. he does
all the vocals on his own stuff, but the vocals on the
dntel remix feature the guy from kings of convenience
whom i would probably not recommend, but perhaps
that's
just me. also, if you like the more playful aspect of
of mr. scissors' stuff, you should check out the
pigeon
funk ep's. pigeon funk features a rotating lineup
that
has included/does include: sutekh, kit clayton, safety
scissors and... felix kubin maybe? maybe i'm totally
off on that. some of the safety scissors stuff does
err more on the tech-house side of things the further
back you go.
other fun things i've heard lately-ish:
dat politics- plugs plus
goodiepal- narc beacon
blectum from blechdom- tracks here and there
fischerspooner- one track in particular, called 'the
15th' which i'm almost certain is a cover of a wire
song.

dntel's live show is pretty incredible... stage
presence-wise it's pretty typical for an idm show,
though he does fiddle with a few more things than his
laptop and there is a guitarist and sometimes jimmy
sings (though he always mixes his voice way too low).
the first time i saw him, my girlfriend and i just
laid
down on the floor at the venue... not that it was
sleepy sounding, just very sensate... maybe i'm
sounding a little freaky now though...
the remix album just clicked with me tonight... i
liked
all the artists involved prior to hearing it but i
think i went in with expectations too high... anyway,
i like it now but i do wish that people had altered
the
song more... and as much as i love barbara
morgenstern's voice on her own things, i wish she
hadn't added her voice to her mix.
anyway,
gregory
