Brian Leeds (huerco s.)

I have spent a lot of hours listening to his music. I made a playlist yesterday and he's released at least 7 hours of music...that is awesome.

Just listened to this track for the first time today and when the beat drops out at 0:54 and he lifts the hipass filter it was one of those clouds parting, light shining down moments, and i was like, how is he going to bring this together and then the beat abruptly thumps back into existing with a skittering autechrish hihat. fucking marvelous stuff. I love this man.

I think the first thing I heard from huerco s. was Prinzif from colonial patterns, it was posted before the album was released and it sounded so weirdly mysterious and spooky and I was v intrigued. v cool. v good.

I read hi-pass as hip-ass and cracked up

Huge Huerco S. fan, "Ragtime U.S.A. (Warning)" is powerful

listening to that rn in your honor, mate

the kick is smooth and buttery, I wanna bite it

Big fan of this dude, Verdigris Reader is what hooked me in, lush af.  The new Loidis and Pendant releases are really good too.

I sometimes stand in front of a mirror for hours practicing my enunciation of "Huerco"

Love everything he does

hell yea dude

Yeah, got Colonial Patterns on vinyl. Got into him, OPN, and Haxan Cloak around the same time, so I always associate those 3 mentally

Those Of You Who Have Never is a pretty great album imo

One of my favorite artists.  I love in particular the way he does eps, they are often have a distinct mood throughout, like self contained mini albums.  Aphelias theme, No Jack,  Railroad blues, Opal tapes' untitled, A Verdigris Reader, Regalier (esp the reissue tracklist), Loidis.  Theres not a bad one in the bunch, all are essential.

He also runs West Mineral label which has put out 3 great releases. https://westmineral.ltd/

A favorite :

^^love that one. eapecially when I first heard it because I was like, ooo, haven't heard him make a clean sounding track before.

honestly and only in private: I sink the time when the clouds open that is the wrong time. I sink best time is when cloud close again at 2:20: I sink that is the best time 100%

Don't know what it is about him, never heard a track I didn't like and I keep decent track of his stuff, but still something's keeping me from really getting ravingly enthusiastic about the dude. What I will say though is that sometimes his music seems to be exactly what I need.

Been on binge listen of his music (all aliases) lately.

Found an unreleased track that i somehow missed, apparently it was a soundcloud upload a bit before For Those of You came out.  It sounds very much like gas/volfgang voigt, which is maybe why it didnt make it on that album (also the 15m runtime).  But its some really delicious textures to get lost in.

Also I would be remiss not to shout out (again) his 24 hours from culture mix. Almost 1hr of amazing and mostly unreleased ambient.  I listen to like an album as such.

Let's bring back some of this

This song is so great

I'm not big into techno, but after I heard "Angel (Phase)" and a couple other tracks from Colonial Patterns, as a guy who is mainly interested in noise music/industrial noise, this fella has kept my attention, despite passing over his more straightforward techno stuff.  He's good at sound design.  https://open.spotify.com/album/0aZF30TPBFQq2cc5KCUz37

god i love this man

totally missed this, many thanks

i bought this one of his recently, and it's really rather good. 

this guy is crazy good. there is something so unique about his style. i imagine it is really easy to make boring ambient, yet his work always has this hazy, hypnotic feeling.

Man I’m so glad Liam’s vid is still on YT
