Experimental Electronic Music
Reference to Difference was made when Ken Ishii’s musical ability was beginning to take root and bloom, a time when music was shifting into something new and unheard. A release of the annals of electronic music history, lovingly, and thankfully, revived.
In this carnival of music, with an unreliable narrator as your guide, listeners are liable to move from one attraction to the next, thrilled by the slight menace and delighted by the cotton ear candy.
A show that’s been in the making for well over two decades, two hours dedicated to the most minute of the vinyl formats: seven inches! Robbie goes deep digging into the seven-inch shoebox and comes up with a glut of gold from far and wide.
Sentiment Series Vol.12 is an entertaining little EP showcasing some pretty strong techno tunes. The major point of strength of this release lays in the fact that each tune offers its own approach.
Two highly acclaimed figures of IDM, downtempo, synth, and post-techno music join forces to release a puzzling album of hyperactive grooves and hypnotic pulses seconded by soothing ambient moves. The thematic background leads the listener into the modern-era of cycling and in particular the Tour de France’s epic sport adventure.
Heiki Sillaste draws on his industrial roots while riffling through ambient, electro, house and techno. He selects elements from these varied genres with such a discerning ear that his compositions are never cluttered nor crowded.
Fragile X’s audio work is a delightful discovery, as demonstrated by Halcyon Maze in particular with Iceland’s prolific IDM, electro, and techno imprint Intellitronic Bubble.
This LP is as good as current “greatly inspired by classics” IDM gets, because Seph rebrands the dusty futuristic aesthetics of acts like The Black Dog or B12 to turn them into incredibly polished and smooth soundscapes, creating tunes that now sound like they come from 3024 just like the classics did when they came out thirty years ago.
The ten tracks on offer have been meticulously remastered, breathing new life into the rich range of elements Paap originally employed. This dusting down accentuates the influence of Detroit on the record.
A punishing foray into splintered experimental post-industrial fragments gone awry.
Now, for the first time in nearly thirty years, the archives of this pioneering platform have been opened. The result is a seven track album: Time Sensitive: Unreleased Sounds From The Otherworld Archives.
