1982. Year I was born - dang.

No spoken word this time, just Richter. I'm glad the first one includes instrumentals as well.

some autechre moments ..

Juan pls. I need that tune.

Forgot that Nautilis came back and did a new thing.

P.E.T.R.O.L by Orbital. It's been my favourite all time track for 25 years now!

Neo Ouija's Cottage Industries compilations are among or perhaps the best IDM compilations ever released. 20 years and 10 releases, all of them essential. Hopefully 3-5 will find their way to Bandcamp, too (I have them on CD, but no-one [except me?] will buy CDs anymore, even just to rip and shelve them).

It's In Sides' 25th anniversary this year. I wish they'd re-issue the vinyl!!!

In my opinion, the original version of P.E.T.R.O.L used on the PS1 from 1995 is the best one.

It's quite an intriguing album... Considering it's a chordless group, it's interesting that so many of the melodies are presented by both horns in unison, rather than harmonizing each other. A lot of the harmony gets filled out by the bass (Stomu Takeishi - who has this killer sound), and the reverb plays a key role in the arrangements imo. I find it to be a pretty unique soundscape for a jazz album. Sort of dreamy and sinister in a way that's hard to place. The very first track is also one of my favs.
