Picked it up this morning

IMO track ratings

Guess what I picked up today.

The long awaited/anticipated/shrouded in rumor Random Access Memories.

Daft Punk are back and with a sound that is rooted in their signature style but at the same time they are bringing a lot of new things (or old things back) to the table.

My impressions of the album is that its clearly not based on samples but rather a beautiful myriad of organic instrumentation along with several fantastic uses of vocoding and talk-box vocal processing. There also is some super danceable huge analog leads that pepper this album.

My favored tracks from 1-13 (One being the most favored)

Giorgio By Moroder
Instant Crush
Doin’ It Right
Lose Yourself To Dance
Contact
The Game Of Love
Give Life Back To Music
Within
Beyond
Motherboard
Fragments Of Time
Touch
Get Lucky

To say this album is Disco, House or Funk I think is an understatement its something else, something new… something I will call: Electro-Orchestral Future Love-Funk

This album is a mature progression from DPs previous works. Its a breath of fresh air but blowing from the same place in the sky. I think that most people who have been fans of DP from the beginning will have little to nothing complain about from this masterfully crafted album.

Tame Impala being pretty freaking amazing covering Outkast’s ‘Prototype’ with their own flavor. Beautiful playing and vocals. I have played this at least 20 times already. Thank you muchly Triple J.

As I said in a recent post I have fallen in love with the musical stylings of Mike Parker

So much that I decided to put my own stylings into once of his quite dark minimal tunes. Essentially its just a bootleg but I quite like how it turned out. Hopefully the ‘Broken Strobe’ concept comes across quite clearly in this mix… but each to their own.

Give it a listen and check out the original here

I’m to busy with Game of Thrones to be posting anything … however new music in the ears over the past couple weeks.

Ive actually finally managed to catch up with the new Van She album several months after it came out :\ Im liking this new sound a lot less kinda dank electronic rock and more synth sounding almost Cut Copy style refrains. Alas it is a summery sounding album for my current winter like weather that is usually spent listening to more colder sounding electronic artists.

Also on the agenda: Northeast Party House a Triple J Unearthed indie dance band from Melbourne that has made it big enough to have tangible albums in store. I wont lie.. this album was purchased on impulse because of how cheap it was and without looking I thought it was going to be essentially four to the floor alternative house music, also the album art is pretty swanky. Over all the sound is pretty nice actually perhaps something I would liken to the love child of an acoustic session of Art vs. Science and maybe Bloc Party or the The Whitest Boy Alive

Another person I love primarily for their mind and secondly for their music. Thom Yorke is a freaking superhero. An hour long podcast of just him and Alec Baldwin talking about anything and everything.

At the start of the week WNYC aired an interview between Hollywood actor and radio presenter Alec Baldwin and Atoms For Peace and Radiohead frontman, Thom Yorke.

In their hour-long conversation, Thom talks about his relationship with his bands, politics, stalking Ed Norton and how Atoms For Peace began as: “An excuse to go on a jolly to L.A. and hang out.”

I have only recently become a fan of Autechre, I stumbled across them when I was searching for more Aphex Twin or Empty Set to listen too, so I was quite pleased to hear that a new album of theirs had just been releaced a few weeks ago. wonderful mind bending IDM packaged in a two disc medium ^^

Reel to reel alchemy.

Four tape machines and one man a whole lots of looping, delays and reverse delays make for a smooth minimal techno live performance.

This blows my mind to no end.

Laurent Bisch alias Fingers In The Noise is an electronic music producer, oriented to ambient, dubtechno, and sometimes experimental.

Im in the middle or rather %40 complete in rebuilding my music library back to how it was in 2007-8 (meticulously organized and indexed to within an inch of its life). Of course there have been several new additions that have hung out in different archives and .cab storage. I pulled out this ep today to re add to the monolith that is my music collection.

The Morning Benders

Japan Echo EP

A disaster releif EP. %100 of all profits made from this small collective would go to Japan to aid in its recovery from quite horrific earthquake in 2011. It is a remix ep and never having heard of The Morning Benders before I can only appreciate what they did in trying to help in any way that they could.
