i posted it in general banter because the afx forum is full of weirdos so some people never go there. also it has nothing to do with aphex twin. if i was a mod i would have moved it instead.

this is thread #4 tho

meh. it's a good thread so far except for you moaning. i discovered omar souleyman, some other people discovered shangaan electro, and we all had a nice chat

If you liked the Shangaan in this thread and it was your first taste of African styles, you should check out some of Shangaan's relatives:

stop posting so many threads

For the past 6 months i've barely listening to music because i think i tried to go further into IDM, stuffs like jynx or kettel which i found pretty boring.

Now I think i'm gonna head toward "world electronic music", way better.

*listens to leh jani for the umpteenth time*

you gotta to admit that those synth riffs are mental

let's travel to china now

i just knew you were gonna do that

i don't post so many threads. i tend to be more of a thread responder.

i've been travlling to africa, brazil and cuba recently. i've tried to find some good chinese "zen" music but i don't know where to look. like really quiet improvisation on string instruments.

my favorite of my travels is fela kuti. i would like to hear more music like his

actually, listening to zombie kicked off a strong desire for me to find more "long grooves" of any form. krautrock type stuff

juana molina is good

Yeah, Fela Kuti and krautrock are two of the best things about the 70s.
