(91-105 albums etc that I’ve listened to this year, copied from twitter) (now with art. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8])
names and thoughts below cut
91/ KNOWER - Think Thoughts (2011)
peppy!
bright and loud!
well ok that might not be true for every track, but like. slapping those fakebrass chords feels great. shining characteristic.
---
92/ Photek - Avalanche / 101 (2011)
(i have decided to be extra harsh on dnb)
…oh its not dnb.
actually this is a case where each track is stronger than the last. i didnt rly care for "Avalanche" but "Slowburn" is hitting HARD.
---
93/ Photek - Aviator EP (2011)
i guess ive missed a few chapters of photek because this aint dnb. to my ears its hella 2011 but thats not inherently bad.
overall i just think this one's ok. it kinda looks like a companion to Avalanche/101, and...sorry but i love that one far more
--
94/ Kryptic Minds - Can't Sleep (2011)
dark! id call it ukdubstep but it clearly isnt.
peak nighttime music tho. good shit
---
95/ Floating Points - Shadows (2011)
the above is possibly the most apt word cloud for the sound of the ep.
gentle punch. sleepy even. exactly the level of chillout i need.
---
96/ Joseph Nothing Orchestra - Super Earth (2011)
joseph nothing has a melodic style that sits just right with me, coupled with a really playful ear for sound design.
im happy to see it still hits just as hard a decade after his debut
---
97/ Secret Mommy - The Mall (2011)
exactly what i remember 2011 sounding like.
clicky choppy something.
i feel like i enjoy this nostalgically now, instead of directly. like a layer of abstraction. kinda odd to realize.
---
April
---
98/ Towa Tei - Sunny (2011)
this feels like that soulful type of uh… what do you call shakatak? that thing. but towa tei.
really poppy sometimes. generally all over the place.
i'd describe it as "peak sunshine music" which is funny because the album title agrees
---
99/ VA - Attaxolotls: Amphibious Fisticuffs Anthology Album (2023) a grab bag of styles and vibes. plenty of slappers.
2 specific hilites that make me want to type exclamation marks:
"Arcadia Prime"
"Minor Infraction"
---
100/ Ryuichi Sakamoto - CHASM (2004)
a beautiful album that simultaneously embraces intimate acoustics and some of the dsp trends that ive noticed in 2004. a touch of oval, even? it's a really lovely take. im not a huge fan of the vocals but that's entirely personal preference.
---
101/ Ryuichi Sakamoto - Bricolages (2006)
remix comp version of CHASM.
surprised at how each song has a similar essence, but i unanimously prefer ryuichi's take on the tunes with rapping.
that aside, i love how unabashedly ELECTRONIC this feels.
---
102/ Asking Alexandria - Stepped Up And Scratched (2011)
vocals :\
wobs :)
yeah idk im just not vibing with the metal side.
the wob side is fun as a nostalgic romp but even then... eh.
HOWEVER: "To The Stage (Bare)".
---
103/ nagz - Good (2020)
the album lives up to its name. future music that you just don't get anywhere else.
for me this feels like a sequel to hringur, in that I think that was the last EP to make me feel like this.
---
104/ Nondi_ - Flood City Trax (2023)
incredibly shocked at how well this fits after nagz, at least in timbre. future sounds.
alternatively: it embodies the "for vibin" attitude that early 90s warp/rephlex had, but applies it to modern styles.
im into it.
---
105/ Selfmademusic - Kinema Ikon Soundtracks Remixed (2008)
shimmering, lingering electric soundscapes.
hazy, but specifically the warm summer haze that you see on urban roads.

Ein besonderer Leckerbissen!
Eins meiner liebsten Wandergebiete ist Gran Canaria. Eine bezaubernde Insel mit abwechslungsreichen Landschaften und Regionen.
Das Video zeigt ein paar meiner Fotos. Die Musik ist ebenfalls selbst gemacht.
Als weiteres Hobby spiele ich super gerne Didgeridoo. Bei dem Track hat mich ein guter Freund auf der Djembe begleitet.
Viel Spaß beim Anschauen.
