So far I like rand vc2 the best (I've had it as an mp3 for awhile and it's the reason i bought the album.) I have only heard 4 tracks so far: 1,2,3,9
He has such simple prototype beats, but then they mutate in hundreds of different directions constantly and seemingly effortlessly.

yeah, even though i love funkstörung, i think i prefer some of their solo work better. Both are very talented and make great music.

I havn't heard chris de luca's solo work. I'm pretty sure his cd is hard to find (havn't really tried yet) but I suppose the mp3's would be easy to find and... steal, provided soulseek worked on my computer.

chris has only released two 12", but good stuff nevertheless. You can hear some samples at funkstörung.com. I guess they are working on a new album too, can't wait to hear it!

I heard they were planning an album with all voice samples, I wonder if that's the one. Yeah, I've been to funkstorung.de if that's what you meant, it's funny how they just loop a piece of the song infinitely. It kind of sounds good that way... People say he gave way too much praise to Crunch, but I definately think Crunch deserves it.

fakesch's marion is really good. i wish he'd do another album. also, check out andre estermann and aemic, which is the duo composed of fakesch and estermann.

I am just listening to it..excellent stuff..so similar and yet so different from Funkstorung stuff..the main difference seems to be the melodies..very delicate and fragile compared to the muscular and bassy melodies of the F...more glitch..always good:)..but I have the mp3 version and something very peculiar going on..the kpbs seem to be jumping around all over the place to the beat..I am on winamp..from 32 to 332 to 192..128..changes with each beat..anyone else has that going on?

rrrrgh, I wish soulseek would work! I just looked up "crunch laurel" and sure enough at least 2 matches came up on google, I've never even heard of laurel or music to sweat to.... tipper, the guy behind crunch does some quite conventional stuff too I'm pretty sure, I wonder if these albums are bassy/normalish or hyper insanely intricate striking like some tracks in "1/nullpluze". Some tracks in 1 are so indescribably good. Have you heard track 3 in otto von schirach's "8000 bc" that's an EXCELLENT track too, it's hyper intricate and insane and even has an ambient ending (the best "ambience" I've heard) I think someone else worked on that track with him too (according to the cd booklet), mr. soundwave or someone else whoever that is, I wanna hear their solo stuff...

I have no idea why it does that. I think some of their high tech gadgets totally fuck everything up, heh heh. like the otto von schirach 8000... bc, uh cd has this ring, ... like a complex oil colorful stain on it, I suppose that's some weird pattern created from all the complex data crammed as efficiently as possible in there, heh heh, plus the booklet smelled like a weird machine.

I expect the cd player to turn into a time machine or something with some of the data these madmen feed it.

I think they make better music on their own then as Funkstörung.
Chris de Lucas stuff can be really inovating at times.... Anyone agree?

Thanks colonymike!! Tooooo bad it's 12 inch though, it seems like they'd make more money selling cds. If it was a cd, I'd buy it in a second.

how is chris de luca's music? each time i order online, i want to buy his untitled ep but i always change my mind at the end. should i buy it next time? i heard it has a more hip-hop feel than fakesch.

I disagree with Sido here..Funkstorung..is still my favourite..and Chris De Luca...hmmm...I still getting used to the Unknown EP...it's very..hmm...serene...the synthwork is very lush and a tad overproduced...not much innovation to speak of..very mid era autechre..while on the three official Funkstorung releases..they have very definetly carved out a niche and a sound a mile away from the ever looming shadow of autechre...Michael Fakesch's Marion has a lot more innovation and experimental streak...Chris De Luca's Untitled EP is extremely beautiful and melodic but still severely glitched music...
a less harder edged sligthly over produced Funkstorung without the muscular bass and rhytm work or the ever present strains of hiphop..
