yes, now - i didnt use the term idm, so that got rid of all
the meaningless discussions evolving around that genre. all
i want is some suggestions regarding new artists. please be
sure to exclude warp, rephlex, planet-mu and skam as i've
heard all their recent releases. some of the things i have a
high opinion of these days are artists such as: claro
intelecto, andy stott, wisp, lusine, proem, ochre - i have a
feeling that im missing out on a few essential artists.

There is a new Proem album called "A Permanent Solution"
that came out 2 or 3 months ago. It kinda went under the
radar.

And as always I have to recommend Lustmord- Heresy even
though it's not new.

Yeah, I really enjoy A Permanent Solution - one of my
favourites these days. Same with his You Shall Have Ever
Been. Both of them are considered masterpieces in my book.
I'll check out Lustmord. Please be sure to keep them coming.

The first track of Heresy makes me think of the doc from
back to the future, and hes went back in time to this
primordial age, but the car ended up in this pitch black
cavern with no exist. and he's screaming for marty. listen
and you will hear it too.

Be sure to check out Bohren & Der Club of Gore - Black
Earth, thats a great album aswell. Horror with a pinch of
jazz - they exchanged the guitar with a sax.

I always thought they sounded a bit too .. cheesy, kind of.
Like Rammstein cheesy, almost. I dunno.

I don't really follow much new electronica as there is an
overwhelming lot of it (and I have no idea where to begin),
lately I've been having nostalgic listens to the early
Planet µ releases, back when the label was fresh and
optimistic. When it released quirky, goofy stuff that wasn't
there because it was in a "hot seller" genre. Capitol K,
Frog Pocket, Lexaunculpt, Joseph Nothing, OOO, Kettel,
Bit_Meddler etc.. If you haven't already, I really recommend
checking out the earlier releases on µ, they've got far
more charm and warmth than 95% of what they release now
(Boxcutter and a few others excluded).

i dont really know, you should try turning off the lights,
lie down on your bed with your headphones on a high volume.
its absolutely horrifying if you have a bit of imagination.


and by the way, thank you for making me aware that there is
a lot of earlier music that my ears havent enjoyed yet. the
early planet mu releases is some of them. also, boxcutter,
saw him a few months ago - great concert, absolutely loved
what he did and then i forgot about it again. im going to
check out a few releases by him, can you recommend me a an
album?

Yeah, ill get that, looking forward to it actually. Its the
best feeling, discovering music you haven't heard before.
You know whats beautiful.. Bohren & Der Club of Gore -
Constant Fear.

I fell in love with Svarte Greiner lately. I don't know if
it's your cup of tea, though. After listening for an hour
the best comparison I could come up with with my limited
knowledge of the scene is somewhere between Murcof, Nurse
With Wound and some kind of dark chamber.

"I always thought they sounded a bit too .. cheesy, kind

nah, they're great... gotta see them live if they ever
should come close to where you live. Very ironic stage
performance... darkened room, with dimmed spotlights on
their hands... a fluorescent skull on the bassdrum, two
basses and double bass, dark suits, and funny dark anecdotes
between the songs... don't take them serious at all... and
check out the album Geisterfaust...

Lustmord wasn't exactly what i expected it to be - thats
both good and bad. It's definitely going next to bohren and
der club of gore. Oneiric is really beautiful tho.

Great thread. I'll be checking out a lot of these
recommendations.

Chuck - have you listened to Mouse on Mars before? They are
fairly well-known, but I decided to list them here since, as
far as I know, they've never put out a record on
warp/rephlex/skam etc. They have a pretty strange sound,
ranging from techno to just weird, with heavy analog sounds
and also live instruments in some tracks (guitar, and I
think drums as well.) I have a feeling you already are well
aware of them, but I figured I'd list them just in case.

Black Moth Super Rainbow is a recent favorite of mine. I really
enjoyed the album Dandelion Gum. Also, they did a
collaboration with The Octopus Project that was really good. and since I've
mentioned them, this album by the Octopus Project is
another good listen.

alarm will sound' is awesome. needs tightening in a fair few
places if rdj did an edit/mix you'd be creaming.

i must admit there are many parts that are to loose ..but
very often a section will just envelop me into an organic
orchestrated aphex dream world. tits like a john willams
,miles davis , aphex mash up to me...got so many great
qualities.

oh shut up freq go to bed.

Infinite Scale on Toytronic and now the Boltfish
lable is probably one of the best, least talked about, most
underated artists i can think of. right up there with Ochre
in composition value and arguably more organic and fluid.
Harmi (his real name) is working on his first full length
for Boltfish now. hopefully a 2008 release but who knows -
maybe earlier.

definatly check his two EPs out.

and then the mighty Ulrich Schnauss, if you've not
heard him.
