“Environmental differences, then, including the sort that affect Black Americans, are known to have large effects on IQ,” Block continues. “Moreover, we currently have no way to quantify these effects. So we should draw no conclusion about the probability of any Black genetic IQ advantage or disadvantage.”

Best releases of the year: 2016 edition

I won’t bother writing much, because who cares what I think?

In no order:

1. Khotin - Baikal Acid (on the unbeatable 1080p)

Flavors: round, bouncy, light blue

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CpEzSJBxVg

2. SW. - Untitled (on Sued Records)

Vinyl (and YouTube) only

I’ll let the YouTube description speak for it: “Rainforest ambience, pots-n-pans broken-beat house rhythms and winding expeditions down rabbit holes are interspersed with brief dashes into pumping techno and moments of soaring weightless euphoria.”

3. Sublee - Ideepsum (on Metereze)

Vinyl/YouTube only

Excellent music to help smooth out your brainwaves if you were born with brainwaves that are a little too jangly and unsmooth oh shit this is getting personal.

4. Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith - EARS (on Western Vinyl)

Novel and naturalistic ambient jams from the west coast analog synth enthusiast.

5.  Huerco S. -  For Those Of You Who Have Never (And Also Those Who Have) (on Proibito)

Novel, absorbing cuts, a few of which made me shit my pants once or twice 

6. The Range - Potential (on Domino)

This is a pretty grand album which seamlessly weaves bits of hip-hop into really funky electronic tracks. Equally good for running or contemplating your navel...

7. Com Truise - Silicon Tare (on Ghostly International)

There did seem to be much hype over this release, but I think it’s one of the more awesome things Mr. Truise has release in the last few years.

8. Telephones - Vibe Telemetry (on Running Back)

“Balearic,” tropical tracks which helped add light-ness to the grey and cold of winter

Honorable Mentions 

Venetian Snares - Traditional Synthesizer Music (on Planet Mu) - This track is sex: https://youtu.be/tbLt0S0W5jE

Bwana - Capsule’s Pride (on LuckyMe) - Akira remix album. What! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMi3ktGF9qA

Tycho - Epoch (on Ghostly International) - I mean, it’s Tycho, so that’s always a plus.

Sasha Jan Rezzie - All My Dreams (on 1080p) - Some solid and absorbing house; https://youtu.be/CEibNHV3IFw

Elka - Chants (on 1080p) - Just more solid, PNW house vibes from 1080p; https://youtu.be/i6XzC0XiqD0

“I can still recall the exact moment that my brain started lying to me.”

I’ve rarely had any reason to try very hard to explain what OCD is like to anyone, but this article would be a decent place to start if I were to do so.

The two fictional characters I identify with most are Dexter and Eleven. That probably says something about my sense of how well I fit in the world...
