sergeantk Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I've been looking for the longest time only to come up short. If Richard is good at one thing, it's having a new sound for each release... Too bad he hasn't made anything like this one. So I'm basically looking for other artists with something similar-ish to it... For me SAW 85-92 is the only album with the true essence of ambient techno, and I'd love to be proven wrong.

ilt17 Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hmm one similar album would be hard to find I don't know any tbh, you'll rather find some tracks over here and there amongst interresting or not albums. You'll find some on Seefeel's Quique (Imperial especially), Locust's In rememberance of times past (and check some early Appolo releases, Tournesol has some good things), Cultural Vibes' ma foom bay, some µ-Ziq on bluff limbo & tango n vectif (and so early rephlex stuff of course). It depends a bit if you're more into Actium or Hedphelym in fact. That's what comes to mind at the moment I'll check for some other things later Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/66247-is-there-another-album-in-this-world-anything-like-saw-85-92/#findComment-1584325 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just what I needed Plastikman - Consumed sounds kinda like Xtal, but that album as a whole is kinda boring... I wish there were more tracks similar to just Consumed/Xtal...

xy_politics Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 "90" by 808 State is the closest relative I can think of, and easily the biggest influence on the sound of SAW 85-92. Not the expanded "Utd. State" US version but the original. Aside from that maybe try B12 "Electro Soma", the Redcell/Stasis CD, Joey Beltram "Aonox", Locust "Weathered Well", Likemind Records 1 to 4, specifically tracks by Nuron.

Macca Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 everyone has pretty much stated all the good ones I can think of immediately off the top of my head I really REALLY 2nd Susumu Yokota's album "Sakura" that album relaxes me in a similar manner to 85-92, just slightly different style of music I guess :) Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/66247-is-there-another-album-in-this-world-anything-like-saw-85-92/#findComment-1584405 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hahathhat Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 i liked album "good morning" by no. 9, though watmm seemed to disagree with me when i mentioned that. also, luke vibert touches some of the same moods.

ZoeB Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 There are a few nice ambient techno albums, most of which have already been mentioned. Biosphere's Microgravity is as close as I've heard to Selected Ambient Works 85-92, and it's great, but it's just not as dreamy and out there. Other albums which you may like but aren't really the same include Incunabula, Electro-Soma, Earth and Nightfall, Substrata, Soup, Dimension Intrusion, 76:14, From Within, Dreamfish and Phonehead. There are lots more albums I'd recommend, but they're really nothing like Selected Ambient Works 85-92. The closest I've heard to someone else sounding like Aphex Twin is probably Bochum Welt's album Kissing a Robot Goodbye, but it sounds more like, say, ...I Care Because You Do. Of course, many of us are heavily influenced by Aphex Twin, and have a similar love for those kinds of sounds. I'm spending several albums just trying to make something as nice as any given Aphex Twin album. I'm getting a lot closer to Selected Ambient Works 85-92's sound with my latest album, City Lights, but it's a good few months from being finished. Why not grab some TR-808 samples, a simple synthesiser of your choosing, and a decent reverb and delay unit and make your own music influenced by this album? I'd love to hear the results.
