Panasonic (now Pan Sonic, thanks to the multi-national company not being pleased with the Finnish duo pilfering their name) produced some gorgeous minimalism.
Electronic
[Video] Huso Fin – Adjustable
Huso Fin fits perfectly in the world of post-Industrial music weirdness! Another winner from my friend, Qualo Infinity!
[Sample] Louis Haiman – 12th House (remixes)
A new release from Stasis Recordings by house artist Louis Haiman. I’m no expert in regards to house music, but this track brought me back to Kraftwerk’s early minimalist catalog, sans vocals. Brilliant material to work with.
[Video] Schneider Kacirek – Doubles
Up until today, I had no idea who Schneider Kacirek was. Thanks to Toni Dimitrov, my old friend, I got turned on to this track, and this rather incredible project. It features Stefan Schneider, who was in Kriedler and To Rococo Rot. No wonder why the beats sounded familiar!
[Video] Cooper Raines – The Woman in the Mask at the End of the Street
The ever-prolific Qualo Infinity strikes again with another side-project, this one being Cooper Raines. Hazy, surreal, filmic, hypnotizing music, perfect late-night headphone trip music.
[Video] Þverfellshorn – Agnieszka
Simple, and sublime.
Luke Paine, operating under the moniker Þverfellshorn, produces lush pieces in a style reminiscent of Icelandic composer Jóhann Jóhannsson.
A special thanks to Albanian electroacoustic composer Ilir Lluka, who posted this piece originally.
[Video] Boreal Taiga & 3Music – Piap-Bai
Boreal Taiga is one of the most innovative ambient musicians based in the United States (though he worked out of Norway for some years). 3Music is Viktoriya Natoloka, herself an incredible composer. These two make a fine pairing, stretching the meaning of what ambient music is.
[Video] Tangerine Dream – Phaedra (Complete Album) / Edgar Froese R.I.P.
Jerome Froese, son of Edgar and a fine musician in his own right, bring terrible news that his father, the linchpin of Tangerine Dream, has passed away. We post my favorite album by the band, Phaedra, in his memory.
[Video] UNKLE (with Ian Astbury) – Burn My Shadow
How on Earth did I miss out on this one? Ian Astbury must have been on haitus from The Cult while making this track for the electronic music group U.N.K.L.E. His voice is in very good form here, and U.N.K.L.E. provide a perfect backdrop for it.
[Video] Ocadium – Hydroelectricity
Many thanks to my good friend, Qualo Infinity, who records this track under one of his many pseudonyms. He is a master craftsman of experimental music.
