Electronica - what are you listening to?

[cybot]

My one and only Biosohere Lp. Wasn't that impressed last time I listened.

Sorry to hear that Cybot, however Dropsonde took me a while to get used to as well, however I do like the second last track "Sherbrooke", it kind of grew on me!!

Strange how the album cover art is different on my version when compared to yours!

Yes Adrian it is strange alright! Your version is almost twice the length of my single Lp version believe it or not. Must listen again to Sherbrooke....Anyway the recording is pretty low on the vinyl so it's hard to appreciate something like this that has rhythm. It's almost begging to be heard on headphones to be fully appreciated.

Listened to ............ Johann Johannsson... Englaborn.



Very subtle, almost melancholy..

Beautiful album....Has a new one out at the moment called Copenhagen which I believe is supposed to be ok.

Took a bit of getting used to, however some nice tracks...

Currently Enjoying.....Loscil ... Triplepoint

On vinyl...Features David Sylvian on first track. Sounding like an outtake from Manafon.

Nice choice on the first one John. I have it on vinyl and love it. I've heard some of his other stuff with Emeralds and hated it because because of it's derivitive 'cosmic' tendencies....
I hope you're familiar with the label it's on as it's a fabulously diverse label. I have loads of vinyl stuff from this label and save a lot by ordering direct from it. Have you heard any of the vinyl only Jim O' Rourke albums (Old News series) or even his partners Peter (label owner) and Fennesz albums like In Stereo and particularly the live in Japan (sic) In Hell (Fenn O' Berg)


Meanwhile I absolutely love this Lp, horrible sleeve notwithstanding, simply because, even though it still suffers from the same tendencies as the above albums, it's done tongue in cheek.....

Thora Vukk, ........hmmmmm, not really impressed.....still trying to get my head around this one...
