Hey all,

I'm sure this topic has been done 1000 times and maybe I'm breaking the rules by making another one, not sure.

 

Just wanted to see what else you all listen to other than the featured artists on here. Obviously this will be a very broad topic...

 

I'm hoping to either get exposed to or expose others to some music they may not have heard yet.

 

Here are some of the things that are always on my playlist. I realize they are pretty much all from the same 6 record labels but oh well.

 

Also, if you follow any record labels other than Mu, Warp, Rephlex, Ninjatune, Thrill Jockey, or Brainfeeder I'd love to hear about them. I've heard a few things about Domino and Numbers but don't know what artists to jump into...

 

Amon Tobin

Xploding Plastix

Ceephax

V Snares

Wisp

OOO

Alec Empire

Aleksi Perala (including all his pseudonyms)

I don't listen to a lot of electronic music anymore. Lately i've been obsessed with the following:

 

Textures

Eloy

a-ha

Nik Kershaw

Killing Joke

Models

Simple Minds

 

And some others that i can't seem to remember right now. Electronic music just doesn't impress me as much as it did 10 years ago :shrug:

ah, that's other music in new york, on 4th street, between broadway and...lafayette? i should remember that, as i go there pretty often.

 

I've really been into the following recently:

 

Andy Stott

Actress

Advisory Circle

Blawan

The Caretaker

Cooly G

Cupp Cave

Demdike Stare

Ekoplekz

Eric Copeland

Focus Group

Ford & Lopatin

Hype Williams

Ital

James Blake

James Ferraro (edit: at first I didn't feel like it worked in the electronic music listening trends, but if Eric Copeland's included, Ferraro works, and goddamn is he worth checking out - i.e. Lamborghini Crystal material, KFC Flush Pipe something or other, something about P.T. Crusier Theater...just everything. Sift out what you like—he's like a fucked up, processed version of low-brow american culture at its most beautiful and surreal. Also check out Spencer Clark/Vodka Soap/Monopoly Child Star Searchers)

Joy Orbison

Lone

Mono/Poly to some degree

Oneohtrix Point Never

Patten

Raime

Ras G

Ssaliva

 

...as far as different incantations of electronic music are concerned.

I got 1500 cd's/vinyl which I have collected for 22 years, so I could go on for a long time :biggrin:

The last 8 years I have been more and more into electronic music, whereas before that it was a bit of side-interest. I think I have listened to most genres, the only one I haven't explored fully is classical. And I don't do jazz lol.

I did a phase of a lot of English punk (late 70's, early 80's), and that's never mentioned on Watmmer.

If i indulged this thread, it would be my longest post ever. Let's put it this way, it'll take me a few years to relisten to all the music I'm really into. If music evolution stopped right now I'd still be set for life.

BeerBoss....

 

What is it that's drawing you more into the electronic music? IE technicality, change in lifestyle,listening just for the sake of different music... etc.

 

And when you say "you don't do jazz" do you mean freeform jazz or any jazz? I personally don't do freeform jazz I think it's a bunch of self indulgent wankerism. However other types of jazz I enjoy immensely... IE the coltranes, labeouf brothers, etc.... There is an immense amount of technicality, soul, and stories behind the music.

As an aside, I've also been listening to Jean Jacques Perrey circa 1968-1978.. and these crazy japanese techno/rock/pop ppl YMO (yellow magic orchestra) albeit more for entertainment value than critical listening.

Ah! I love me some merzbow, good choice.

Yes, I was particularly impressed with that album - Merzbuddha. I haven't heard toomuch of Merzbow's stuff (well, he released so fucking much), but this album really made me treat Merzbow as one of the most important musicians ever. He is pushing noise to the maximum.

Also, since you said that you like Merzbow:

Flying Testicle was a band that included Merzbow and Masonna, so that means noise fest at its finest.
