Memory keeper. Mostly music and movies, plus some series and video games. Obscure darkness meets pop culture glow.
I am not the avid Gary Numan fan but this is a great album even if there is nothing outright special about it. Good moods of industrial-rock-electronics, not foreground music though. (And probably the most terrible album cover typography of 2017.)
Discogs says it’s techno and house AND modern composition. I cannot really say, it is many things with mixed beats, more slow than mid tempos, some basses but more pianos, few vocals but rather instrumentals. It is nice music, some tracks great even.
It’s like Portishead remastered with a more current sound. Has weight.
Nice and smooth. Good for work and chilling.
In a way the most accessible Four Tet so far, sometimes odd mostly for the house beats, but still magical like always.
At times experimenting ambient, other times beautiful modern composition, and then some noisy downtempo.
Power noise with rhythm and weight.
Stumbling upon this record was like listening to Nid & Sancy’s Talk To The Machine for the first time, or the first run with We Love’s self-titled debut, or the first hearing of Digitaria. Gems of electronic music that are not groundbreaking per se, not necessarily famous or hyped, but give me an intimate touch from the first time we meet.
Synth electro, heavy influences of Carpenter.
IDM infused with some glitches and breakcore beats and jungle rythm and dub. Surprisingly powerful, exciting.
