Ma infatti Tim Hecker le zampacce le ha allungate pure su Aurora.

Tim Hecker è il riferimento per questa roba, comanda lui. E Oneohtrix Point Never.

Why should we feel bad for what we've done? We still got the taste dancing on our tongues.
Re: Musica Elettronica (topic generico)
Silenzio, parla Aphex Twin.
The title SYRO is pronounced “sigh-ro” and it is a made-up word one of James’ children came up with.
Of the several albums he’s been working on, SYRO is the “most accessible one.”
He’s not behind any of the SYRO fakes on YouTube but he has seen them: “I saw the first one that got up, it's got like 26,000 views already, so obviously there's a lot of incentive for people to do fakes. It's like, ‘Shit, I should have put the real one up there.’ I can't put it up yet, though, can I? How much do you get paid for a YouTube thing?”
SYRO features unintelligible vocals from James, his kids, his wife, and his parents.
On Kanye sampling Drukqs’ “Avril 14th” on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’s “Blame Game”: “Is it a sample? I actually don't know what it ended up being in the end, I'm so slack. I know that he tried to fucking rip me off and claim that he'd written it, and they tried to get away with not paying. I was really helpful, and when they first sent it to me, I was like, ‘Oh, I can re-do that for you, if you like,’ because they'd sampled it really badly and time-stretched it and there was loads of artifacts. I was like, ‘I'll just replay it for you at that speed if you want.’ And they totally didn't even say ‘hello’ or ‘thanks,’ they just replied with, ‘It's not yours, it's ours, and we're not even asking you any more.’” [laughs]
SYRO’s track titles mostly reference machines James used to make the album.
He’s currently making new music with electro-mechanical instruments including MIDI pipe organs, a Disklavier controlled piano, and computer-controlled percussion.
On the Kickstarter campaign to distribute audio files of his unearthed Caustic Window album, which exceeded its goal by more than $50,000: “The whole thing is just really touching. When they reached that goal on Kickstarter and it kept going up—people just wanting to give it money, even though they didn't need to do it—it's like, ‘Oh wow. Humanity is nice after all.’ Fans were just so happy to get it, fucking hell. I've got thousands more like that at home. I should release all that stuff as well.”
On his resemblance to Spanish politician Pablo Iglesias: “He does look like me a bit, doesn't he.”
The limited-edition version of SYRO will include an extra track printed in ink on heavyweight cardstock: “I tried it a few times, and it sounds like noise, but you can hear music in there, somehow.
He still DJs anonymously: “The good gigs are always the smaller gigs. The few I've done recently, just for fun, totally anonymously, were so much better than a normal gig. The soundsystem's usually shit, but it's really nice when nobody knows who you are.”
He confirms that he was the artist behind the much-rumored-about Melodies From Mars album, which was made circa 1995 and has been circulating online for years: “There's a really bad copy of it on the net. I think I gave the tape to Warp, so one of those fuckers leaked it years ago. I actually went back and re-edited it, because I almost released it again, but then I got distracted again. Each time I go back to it, I realize there were loads more tracks. So it started off like a double album, but I think it's about four albums' worth. So it's really hard to pull together. I just need Warp or someone to come around and say, ‘Come on, let's fucking get these things out.’ But they don't, so it's just up to me. And nobody else hassles me.”
James’ five-year-old son recently taught himself how to use a music software program that he downloaded off Pirate Bay and even uploaded some tracks to Bandcamp.

L'ultima frase
Bello come sia riuscito a farsi valere contro Kanye West e compagnia plagiante. Di solito è sempre il pop a vincere: troppi soldi a disposizione, troppi avvocati.

Re: Musica Elettronica (topic generico)
C'è un sacco di roba che magari starete pure ascoltando ma di cui non se ne parla. Vi faccio un riassunto dei miei ascolti electro 2014
Actress - Xoul EP: di ghettoville se n'è già parlato e neanche tanto bene mi pare di ricordare. Ebbene, questo ep ha delle tracce strane assai ma interessanti. L'atmosfera è unica e sinistra
AnD - Esoteric Systems: Va be' a parte per i nomi delle tracce in stile M5S è un bel disco con suoni industrial stra carichi e disorientanti
Vatican Shadow - Death is Unity With God: ed ecco un altro discone industrial di oltre due ore. No, questo è troppo anche per me. Non sono riuscito a finirlo. Premio a chi lo ascolta tutto d'un fiato
Claro Intelecto - Stanza: Un ep che non ha neanche suoni troppo sofisticati ma dei grandi beat. Techno spaccacervelli
Clap! Clap! - Tambacounda EP: non lo conoscevo ed è diventato il mio nuovo idolo, l'italianissimo clap! clap! Groove impresisonante, una buona dose di hip hop, l'africa, la sabbia e gli sciamani. L'album esce a settembre per la black acre
Fhloston Paradigm - The Phoenix: bello quest'album hyperdub. Riverbero come se piovesse. Alcuni momenti sono un po' noiosetti
German Army - Jivaro Witnesses: questi pubblicano praticamente un album al mese, non si capisce niente della loro discografia. E' talmente strano da risultare quasi fastidioso. Rumore, voci pesantemente distorte e dissonanze. Ogni tanto, proprio come in questo brano, se ne escono anche con un uso intelligente dei synth
Hercules & Love Affair - The Feast Of The Broken Heart: Evviva, è estate, si balla. Disco house/nu-disco, bello bello e mai banale
GusGus - Mexico: Un mix di house e elettropop. Ma che parlo a fare se li conoscete già, i vecchi dischi sono intoccabili. Questo brano, un po' malinconico, un po' retro, un po' frocio, è la colonna sonora dell'estate. Stupendo
Ntogn - Grimoire: Demons & Sorcery: Non so cos'è né come si pronuncia. Mi è capitato di ascoltarlo ed è frutto di quel matrimonio oggi molto alla moda fra esoterismo e techno. Interessanti le derive cosmiche di alcuni episodi, come nel caso del serpente cosmico
Millie & Andrea - Drop The Vowels: Va be' c'è pochissimo da dire. E' il risultato del lavoro combinato fra Andy Stott e Miles, praticamente il top del top
Rainer Veil - New Brutalism: altro sporchissimo lavoro firmato modern love. Suoni rarefatti as usual. Piace agli stessi che hanno amato Andy Stott
The Field - Cupid's Head Remixe: i remix dell'ultimo The Field. Fra i partecipanti Vatican Shadow, Barker & Baumecker e un impressionante Tim Hecker che dopo aver ascoltato questa traccia è diventato praticamente il mio artista preferito di sempre, ecco
Poi si spera che Aphex Twin riesca a spazzarli tutti via

fra l'altro, pare che questo sarà il primo pezzo
l'Aphex Twin 1992-2001 era avanti a tutti gli altri di (almeno) 10 anni. il dubbio che ho adesso è... ce l'avrà ancora questo vantaggio? per quanto il tizio sia alieno, io... boh, non lo so. anzi, ho paura che si possa essere un po' fossilizzato, un po' chiuso in sè stesso. per carità, non dubito della qualità in sè, sulla fiducia gli do già minimo un 80, ma... per l'originalità? come si rapporterà, per esempio, a Oneohtrix Point Never? o Flying Lotus?
cmq, fatevi un favore: se non l'avete ancora letta, leggetevi la notizia dell'album sul sito della Warp

sì ma questa che riporti è di un dj-set, non è affatto detto che sia un pezzo del nuovo
