Ochre's new album is on boomkat. Check out the samples good stuff. As boomkat says, nothing overly challenging, but nice nonetheless. "Yugen" could be of Astrobotnia 4 IMO. |
||||||||

I dont like how they worded that. This isn’t exactly groundbreaking stuff, you feel you’ve been here countless times before.. Makes me not want to listen to it even though i like his music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"yugen" reminds me more of a chris clark thing. |
||||||||
|
|

Actually I have mixed the tracks from this release with the Analords. Boomkat are always using such big words for the stuff they sell, so I was kinda surprised how they described Ochres stuff. |

Ochre's album is great electronica > very skillful and melodic.... he has a more experimental piece coming out on Audiobulb's forthcoming "Intricate Maximals" compilation... we have extracted the dark side of Ochre :) |
||||||||

|
|
A darkside of Ochre? This will be worth hearing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Yes, whilst I agree it's neither groundbreaking nor really unique, it's certainly not a boring "rehash" of existing ideas. I think the IDM community is generally pretty obseced with referencing things to other tracks/artists. Rock music and pop is a lot worse for derivation IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah i completely agree with you. Once an artist does something people are right there with their ideas of what it sounds like. I even did it in this thread :p He has his own style/sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's true, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe Boomkat really doesn't want you to listen because they love you after all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My grammar is all wrongs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's greats. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's rare for boomkat to say anything at all negative about something they have in stock |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I fondly remember their bit about the . when I looked that one up, I also stumbled across , which is even worse! it helps ofcourse that I think Funkstorung is quite shit. :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
AHhahahaha! How bizarre. I would think if you are selling a product that you want to say what is positive. LOL |

They're not as bad as hard to find records, Some examples taken from gash records: "Scissor sisters release their fifth and final single from their self-titled album. 'filthy/gorgeous' is a live favourite and the perfect new year's eve record with its thumping bass line at the beginning that reminds you of a 70s blaxploitation film while meshing shears' strong vocals with co-vocalist ana matronic to great effect" "With plays from everyone worth thier salt in the trance world this latest release from rank-1 is easily the best thing since airwave" "Huuuge electronic anthem from ethan thats been played on pete tongs show nearly 6 times!!!!" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it did surprise me, but I also think it shows a lot of balls. :) |
||||||||

Ochre is great. "Yugen" and "Revolver" in particular are great trax from this album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow, i'm slow, but holy shit this album is great. i'm probably going to be obsessed with it for some time; it appears to have enough suttle detail to be quite relistenable and appreciated, yet still quite instantly likable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ochre is nice. great beats, good drumming. but i totally dislike his melodies, they make me feel lost, they have no clear direction... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
last time I listened to ochre would have been 2001. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jesus, those reviews/synopses are pretty rough hahahah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i was going to say it's a bit odd for boomkat to not say anything nice (aka lie) about something they're trying to sell |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like Autechre, I'll call myself Ochre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was good, then i narrowed it down to 3 tracks, then i realised there was 1 good song on there, which was released beforehand, sorry chris. but your sound is nice, good luck to you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
link to a sample or something? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think this album is quite nice, but comparing to other toytronic releases (abfahrt hinwil, gimmik) its a bit weak. it could make a much better EP with 4-5 tracks... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and re Boomkat - i've noticed that usually they praise the stuff they distribute/release (type, cco, morr) or something they can't go against (warp,rephlex,etc). smaller labels which they don't distribute they can put down in most cases... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you implying that ochre is an ae ripoff? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I rather enjoy the album. Some really fucking beautiful stuff. He's playing in Leeds in December. You should all come along. It'll be beautiful. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think he's more drawing attention to the fact that the words "Autechre" and "ochre" are phonetically very, very similar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, that's true, but if there was any doubt, ochre is actually a real word. Can't quite say the same thing for "Autechre" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm enjoing s'ticklebrick simphony', very good track |
