Between this and the new Tim Hecker coming up, it's going to be a fine fine winter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah actually, these guys both make good winter listening. Rich and indulgent like fruit tarts and liqueurs. |
||||||||
|
|

I see what you did there. |

Glide is the best music i've heard in a long time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
really moody stuff this is.. i love glide, and some others :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fennesz is quality |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
vacuum and glass ceiling are prolly my favorites along with glide and black sea. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Heh. I downloaded the album on friday, but "saved" it for the hangover today. I've listened to it twice, and it's a wonderful album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
glide is just perfect |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks for the recommendation |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is sick as hell. is all his other stuff this good? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why isnt there more discussion on this.. its so amazing :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought i offended people for asking about him... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey yes most if not all of his stuff is great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, check endless summer, venice, cendre & his tracks on the Spire compilations ---> touchshop. |
||||||||
|
|

In some circles (academic / music critic geek?), they say Fennesz's "Live in Japan" is the greatest live laptop performance ever. Not in a "Hey I use Abelton Live and check out my pre-recorded beats inside Buffer Override" sense, but in a "the computer is a viable instrument" kind of way |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
PS - Album of the Year? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I played this a couple of times already, it's good but not sure what all the fuss is about with Fennesz. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Listen to Endless Summer or that live in Japan gl0th mentioned. This new one, I dunno. I like the sounds. Compositions are too maudlin for my taste. This will work better live maybe. He's awesome live. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I did listen to Endless Summer, it's better than the new one - but hardly "amazing". Fennesz gets too much praise, he's just an average artist made to look good by a welter of shit electronic artists who are only making music because it's cheap and easy. |

*whips off hockey gloves, starts punching Barcode in the face* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I must agree with Barcode. I like Fennesz, but he's really not that different from all the other guys in the noise/ambient/experimental/glitch scene. He's made up to be some kind of a missing link between laptop music and high art, which he simply isn't. The praise Endless Summer receives is just ridiculous. If anybody wants some more reference, I've got all his stuff on slsk. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There are few releases in the ambient experimental vein that are as good as Endless Summer. The ridiculously under-appreciated World Receiver by Tetsu Inoue comes to mind, Mirages by Tim Hecker, maybe Geir Jenssen's Cho Oyu (Tibetan field recordings) (but I don't like his usual stuff as Biosphere so much) |
||||||||
|

ask yourself, whats so difficult about getting a bunch of samples, then some fuzzy synth noises, and layering 6 or 7 over eachother 0 adding a stack of reverb. any cunt can do it. sometimes fennesz pulls off something decent, but for the most part it's boring, tuneless, linear,, unlistenable garbage. and people are too easily fooled by it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe you prefer to watch Tom Jenkinson walking on his hands with sparklers jammed in his ass while he juggles live piglets with his feet. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
HAHA, what Jenkinson does to the minds of the weak with his bass is indeed much much worse. Now, I said that I agreed not knowing the extent of Barcode's despise toward Fennesz. I withdraw my endorsment. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
barcode is probably on to it best |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Can someone get a bunch of samples, then some fuzzy synth noises, and layer 6 or 7 over eachother, adding a stack of reverb, and then upload that here? I love that shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sounds like the next xltronic vibes. Do people still do that crazy vibes shit? |
||||||||
|
|

Genuine LOL |

This album is brilliant. I've always liked Fennesz but been unable to really listen to his music. Those massive gurgling bursts of deformed plucks are heavier than death metal. This isn't just granular synthesized guitar, there is much more there now. Coherent composition and alien textures. The desolate, decaying landscape in the last track blows my mind and Glide is better than Alva Noto's entire Xerrox vol.1 which it is similar to. It might be the best fuzzy drone album ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you people freak about this and yet refuse to have a hafler trio listen? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Barcode, you either get it or you don't. And by Getting it, I mean getting something FROM it. It's the same with all these artists that don't make instantly recognizable music. Anyone from Autechre to Alva Noto... It's hard to explain exactly why one enjoys tracks, but for me, this album just sounds amazing and has deep moods. i don't take into account how difficult it is to make it, or how he made it, I just listen to the sounds. I've begun to really appreciate that "white noise/static" type sound ever since I heard Xerrox, and Fennesz pulls it off awesomely on this album. Either way mate, nobody will like everything, but at least give it a chance without all this prejudice and all these 'prethoughts' I didn't like endless summer as much either. |

elusive unzips and *whap* lays his hafler sausage on the table. CREDIBILITY, BITCHES |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Who refuses?! I have been listening to a lot of Kill The King lately. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the hafler trio is much better/different |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like both H30 & Fennesz. yeah Barcode if you know a few cunt who produces some music as good as endless summer, please let me know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The FACT is, I'm being deliberately argumentative. Howdya like that shit? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You just lost the game. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fennesz has more to do with oval or microstoria than h30 imo. it's all experimental ambient/noise, but not the same school to my ears. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the fact you somehow stated that jenkinson is a shit bass player still keeps you a bit ignored in this thread, my friend |
