Oh sweet you're right! There's something I find really funny about buying the latest FLA from Steam. [edit]  Everyone should buy the AirMech soundtrack. [edit] Help me it's not long enough, looping it only does so much nooo Babby Sathanas fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Nov 14, 2012 |

What is the loving point of doing loving anything (especially "my own music") now that Front Line Assembly - AirMech exists in this universe. Just gently caress it all, I hate everything gently caress poo poo rear end. This album genuinely makes me angry because it's so good. This is also the second FLA album that just happens to sound exactly like how my music would sound if I actually were able to make my music sound exactly like it is in my head. Civilization was the first and now there's this and gently caress you LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEB a cyborg mug fucked around with this message at 21:03 on Nov 14, 2012 |

I cannot understand at all why the few of you find this so amazing and it makes me sad I listened to Airmech today and I think it's fantastic. But keep in mind that Synaesthesia was one of my all-time favourite acts. So any FLA that leans in that direction is going to be fantastic to me.

In an attempt to expand the bands I listen to, I saw Hansel Und Gretel recommended in this thread about 30 pages back or so. I like their sound. Even if they did get more metal and less electrical in their later albums. The part that just makes me uncomfortable is when I want to link other people to a neat sounding song over YouTube, and this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77YQ7mX80hE Is all I can find with such beautiful top comments as "deport jews from all white nations" And obvious Nazi worship from uploader SStiger1888.  Then again with a band name like that, and songs such as "Third Reich from the Sun", what can I expect?

I guess while I'm posting here I might as well ask. Does anyone have any that sounds close to the style and pace of these Skinny Puppy songs? Politikil (Current favorite), Pro Test (In OP), I'mmortal. I'm not very good at describing WHY I like them. But if anyone can see a common pattern between those songs and recommend more like them I would be happy. There's probably more songs on their other albums like those, but I haven't given them all a listen so far. It seems very hit or miss for me.

Man it just dawned on me after watching the new How To Destroy Angels video, where they are using a bunch of custom eurorack synths.. All this dystopian, urban wasteland, post apocalyptic gritty underground music is, for the most part, made with the most expensive synthesizers, VA's, effects racks and loaded iMacs that no actual poor underground street musician/rebellion could ever afford. If the economy ever does actually meltdown and crash, Einsturzend Neubauten styled industrial is going to come back into style waaaay fast.

This is exactly what it's made me realise. It's why when I go clubbing I can happily dance to it but get super pissed off by it when sober. It's about how sparingly it's used, and not to mention they've used it in a pretty non-static way. These tracks are constantly moving and shifting texture. It's fabulous, every electronic musician could learn a lot from this album.

That track, Everything That Was Before, just hits me somewhere DEEP, enough that I'm literally moved to tears by it. It has such an emotional effect on me that I just can't "not remember" that track.

I love it how you can just hear that these guys have made and loved electronic music for the last 30 years of their life. The programming is incredibly intricate and rich (just listen to the dubsteppy parts in Mech Killer, for example), the soundscapes so lovingly designed and just... gently caress

This is maybe not strictly on-topic, but it's a clip from an old BBC documentary on the manipulation of tape to create innovative music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4ea0sBrw6M You can see the full documentary here.

I'm so loving out of touch these days when it comes to the rhythmic noise & related end of things because none of my friends are really into it any more, they all prefer the really clubby stuff like Xotox and so on  (which I still like, but I miss the old days of giving Ant-Zen all of my money)Anyway, it turns out that Tympanik Audio have been releasing some totally awesome stuff. First up, here's a Stendeck track from last year's release that completely passed me by http://youtu.be/e036l5TFPQU Not quite sure how to describe it but I guess it's kinda soundtracky and atmospheric in places, if that makes sense? More downbeat and moody and sometimes less dancefloor-focussed than a lot of the Ant-Zen/Hands type stuff. There's a whole bunch of stuff like this that I've heard over the years and I'm never quite sure what to call it. Reminds me of Detritus, Autoclav 1.1 and that sort of sound a fair bit. And here's one from the latest Worms of The Earth release which pretty much anyone who likes more tribal influenced stuff (so things like T'Zolkin or This Morn Omina) should enjoy http://youtu.be/QQc5_TVzbVU
