Caught Ken Ishii play in LA last weekend and that party was stellar. Tons of good bookings around there and I'm kinda jealous of what they have going on. I feel pretty blessed to have gotten to see him and DJ Nobu play in the same year. Some of these legendary Japanese DJ's never seem to go stateside.

No one seems to be posting anything in this thread so I'm going to shitpost some nice music. Recently got my tape of Exhumation from Under Molnet, a split by offworldcolonies and Rohr Sha: https://undermolnet.bandcamp.com/album/exhumation Good minimal techno. In the same vein but with more ambient stuff is the album June by Acronym: https://northernelectronics.bandcamp.com/album/june It came out last summer but I still can't stop listening to it.

Has anyone listened to Boris Brejcha? He's kinda big in the local scene, saw him last Friday and thought it was pretty great. Around these parts they put him under "Minimal Techno" though he sounds very different to what uno.mannschaft posted above. Not sure what style he would fit in, or if there is anything similar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsfVs1T11mA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiBMrQFF_3Y Try Hard Pill fucked around with this message at 02:38 on Jan 15, 2016 |

I don't know if there's any specific genre attached to that style of music. When I said minimal techno in my post above I was thinking that it's techno and it's minimal, not that the sound of those records is representative of some genre called minimal techno. As for the tracks you posted they have got that Harthouse sound that incorporates elements from techno, house and trance. It reminds me of what Richie Hawtin plays in his sets, but I haven't got a good name for the style of music.

This Pinch mix hits a wide spectrum of those sounds: https://www.xlr8r.com/podcasts/2015/10/podcast-409-pinch/ I've got insane FOMO from hearing friends stories about the Berceuse Heroique night that Reconstrvct did: https://soundcloud.com/kemal187/gramrcy-ruffian Lots of heat coming out of Bristol producers in general these days and there's more of this stuff on the UK bass thread: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=0&threadid=3420553&perpage=40&pagenumber=88#post456021753 Soon as I hear these on a system, I know I'll be  https://soundcloud.com/livity-sound/kowton-shots-fired https://soundcloud.com/tessela/tessela-with-patsy-swimming air- fucked around with this message at 18:40 on Feb 10, 2016 |

those reconstrvct parties seem cool but they're always absurdly expensive. like the upcoming one is $40? i realize it's new york and you can charge virtually whatever you want for anything and people will pay but when places like good room and bossa nova (and hell even output sometimes (also to say nothing of places like palisades and trans pecos that sometimes get good poo poo)) offer list/no cover w/rsvp i just can't legitimize it.

Yeah totally understand. I admit I'm good friends with people deeply involved in Reconstrvct so that as well as how they don't give a gently caress as far as "risky bookings" are why I'm fine with it. Plus I can't think of a system I like more than Tsunami's in the USA. Gotta make it up to Bunker NYC's parties too though.

I just prefer Tsunami's engineering on their Labhorns over the way most Funktion One systems are tuned. Here's my favorite American clubs based purely on sound (U Hall has Martin Audio while the rest have Funktion One): 1. Flash, DC 2. Smart Bar, Chicago 3. Cielo, NYC 4. U Street Music Hall, DC 5. tie: Output, NYC and Beta, Denver 6. Q, Seattle 7.

Good ones both of them, have to check those names. What do you think about the latest Surgeon album (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68Kc6hxZ96I)? My take is that it starts of hot as hell but halfway through my ears get really tired and it sounds more like someone farting in my ears. Maybe I'm getting old but I would have preferred if he broke up those really intense soundscapes with some small drony stuff for a minute or two.

Any reccos in the vein of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wlfneBB0xM (Len Faki & Johannes Heil - "Maniac")?? I've been digging through some of Niereich's old podcasts & while there is lots to love there, this one really caught me. Deep, noodly business that's still dance floor friendly. I've been out of the scene since '97, so I'm absolutely clueless about labels/artists now.

resident advisor podcast is a good place to start for mixes, most of the djs/producers we're talking about have done one. they reupped their archive in honor of 500 so they're all available on mixcloud. fact mag mixes too, although those can be more hit and miss, in my experience. if you want me to get more specific about recommendations i can from there i would just check mixes.db and pick and choose based on the djs you enjoy... mix cds have sort of gone the way of the buffalo because of podcasting but fabric's mix cd series is generally good for this sort of thing (their fabriclive series too, but it's more all over the place than straight house and techno as the fabric series tends to be), and dj kicks still exists. oh and berghain/pbar have their own mix series' for residents.
