In this sweetened half-dozen selection, p1nkf1re distinctly catches brittle moments of IDM, electro, breaks, braindance, and, more importantly, has fun with it. It’s the nostalgic sound of bygone days, brought forward to current day levels.
Tag: Braindance
µ-Ziq :: Grush (Planet Mu)
Presenting an array of emotive tunes that show how delicate and sensible Mike Paradinas’ way of composing music, which not only emanates positive and rather light approaches in music expression, but makes a statement on how electronic music can be graceful and yet intriguing.
Fluorescent Grey :: Smelted (Katabatik)
The closing piece feels like a culmination of all that’s transpired as “Everything Is Turning Into Steam” scrapes up all the pieces in a slanted braindance/jazz assemblage and allows this release to explore a new chapter in the experimental electronics scene.
Morakh :: Helix (Mestnost)
Encompassing distant field recordings, nostalgic IDM from a bygone era, and the bewilderment of how sound can alter one’s emotions, the plethora of positive grooves on this recording are endless.
V/A :: We Are Reasonable People (Warp) — 26 years later!
A memorable snapshot of an era which many longtime Warp aficionados think of fondly as representing the very pinnacle of the label’s musical prowess, and for anyone wishing to delve further into Warp’s back catalog, a handy list of every WAP (singles and EPs with catalog numbers from 1 to 99) and WARP (albums with catalog numbers from 1 to 55) release up to that time was included inside the compilation’s CD booklet.
Duran Duran Duran :: Supernatural Beast City (Woodland Creatures) — exclusive “Calcium” stream
Supernatural Beast City is a potent combination of pummeling drum and bass and fragmented sounds and is a top choice from Duran Duran Duran’s extended catalog.
Caramel Chameleon :: Compact Demons (Nottetempo)
There’s a sense that Caramel Chameleon is building up a head of steam. With each release, the Italian artist is further honing his sound as he crafts ever more intricate melodies and structures.
Cory Mills :: Cory Mills 1983-2024 (EC Underground)
A unique collection and audiovisual retrospective that goes a long way in commemorating Cory Mills’ memory.
Multiples (Speedy J & Surgeon) :: Two Hours Or Something (STOOR)
Two pillars of ’90s techno, Speedy J and Surgeon, team up as Multiples to give birth to, indeed, almost two hours of discomforting and rather challenging rhythms.
±vMcÇ :: err051-v-mcc (Clean Error)
The degree of abstraction in ±vMcÇ’s work is astounding. Warped glitches and breaks splatter across the terrain, gathering heavily processed found sounds, braindance components, and arcane rhythms into a disorganized muddle.
