This is heavily emotional. Or emotions are heavy on this one. Seems like a space opera concept but often it is rather a rollercoaster through your own soul.
Marc Romboy – Voyage De La Planète
Bracken – High Passes
Diverse electronic music on hiphop speed, with mostly broken beats, basslines, wondering and moody melodies. Could say it’s triphop.
Moiré – No Future
I like long player minimal tech-house albums like this because they tend to be a long enough run of perfect listening material for work. Not too much distraction but quite enough pumping energy.
(And this makes two Ghostly records in a row on this blog.)
Lemontrip - Fade
This is eerie techno. Like the haunted house on the top of the hill reaching out of the foggy path leading up to it. But with mystic neon-glowing steroids that turned everyone into robot werewolf mutants inside. There are black-eyed floating children on the front porch wearing white nightgowns and staring at you without any blinks as you approach. You hear the techno’s faint thumping through the closed doors like you feel your heartbeat in your throat. The doorframe illuminates with flickering light from inside. And you reach for the doorknob.
Vitalic - Voyager
Large, space odyssey, written to be epic. And not epic as in dancefloor smasher. Epic as in grandiose, travelling through space and time.
Pavel Dovgal – The Aura
Some ambient, some downbeat, some mid-tempo, few upbeat, listening pleasures, chill, peace of mind.
Soft Error - Mechanism
Electronic on a wide range from ambience to electro, but in many cases with a soundtrack and visual feeling to it.
Letherette – Where Have All The People Gone?
Hiphopish, glitchy, brainfeederish, ninjatuney. Not foreground music, not dancefloor music. Background thing but not at all elevator music.
Honnda – Diamonds in the Microwave
It’s a short thing. But it’s kind of a smash.
Max Cooper – Emergence
According to its premise this is supposed to score the universe with music from before the boom to the infinite future. Beautiful, atmospheric, inspiring.
