ELM (Electronic Listening Music) instead of IDM, braindance or /bloop/ by the way, not just a thread for this album

>>51425953
how do i expand out of warp releases, i would like to experience some variation of idm, any rec's would be great thanks

>>51426113
>idm
you mean elm
come on, it's gotta catch on

>>51426113
Check out the Skam catalog. Some good shit in there.

Is there any good elm on bandcamp?

>ELM (Electronic Listening Music) instead of IDM
I could actually get behind this. I like brancedance too but it sounds a bit quirky to be taken seriously as a genre title. But anythings better than what we've got stuck with. What may have helped 'IDM' catch on is that it rolls off the tongue well though.

i.e. 'everyone keep listening to the same 3 artists and don't branch out'. Rubbish.

>>51426353
Rounds is folktronica

What do you guys think about the new Clark album?

>>51426375
Whatever it is it made it onto that list somehow. It's a classic album anyway.

>>51426395

Hi OP and everyone, I'm the guy that started the thread about this album cover yesterday. Thanks for sharing an interest; I really enjoy ELM, especially early- and mid-nineties stuff. I would like to recommend this pic related album. I don't think it's *purely* electronic but I get a lot of the same comfy feels and love it in the colder months.

Hell yes! That track is so subterranean. And the melody that comes in right before the 5 min mark has always been a gratifying moment in the music for me. Incunabula is a great album, you'll hear a differently mixed track on it called "Eggshell."

>>51426266
I'm not familiar with any of these artists but I will heed your warning.

>thread about this album cover
(I mean Artificial Intelligence, not Quique)

is this thread friendly to electronic ambient/drone? or is it strictly for "IDM"/braindance?

>>51429309
It is friendly to electronic ambient and drone.

I'm friendly to all music, and I don't think we should exclude anything that may be of interest. I see the genre as refreshingly open to interpretation. "Intelligent dance music" is inherently limiting, and in many cases I think the "dance" part is misleading. ELM has roots in dance music because of its means of production, but doesn't share much in spirit. Just my two cents.

I really love this album, Pop Polling by Accelera Deck. Never heard anything else by the guy...

>>51429358
>>51429407

yay. i've been searching for threads that include electronic ambient & drone and cud never find any. I was about to try to make a drone general or something tbh. but thanks for the responses. i'll be participating in ELM threads for now on.

Hell yes I love that album, found it on CD. I got my friend into it. She asked me for similar music and I rec'd Lifeforms by Future Sounds of London and Pop by Gas. Is there anything else I should have included?

Can I play? >>51426030

No one ever talks to me no matter how much I samefag these

What about Biosphere? I love his early work.

This is fucking amazing.

>>51429633
Yes, and?

>>51429668
I found it years ago and spent hours (it used to take that long!) downloading every last track. I should compile them now that I think about it.

808 State covers a wide band of the electronic music spectrum, but I would call a good portion of it ELM, especially some of ex:el

>>51429710
It's great for people new to electronic music to discover some amazing artists.

>>51429262
Definitely relevant. Excellent album, such a great feel

>>51429262
There's allegedly an unreleased collab between Mark Clifford and Loops Haunt kicking around
Hope it gets a release because I would love to hear that

Holy Fuck OP I remember when this album first came out and I'm just listening to it now its absolutely perfect and timeless.
Around the same time as this album coming out >>51425953
I was pretty big into the Rising high Records label too for a lot of the ambient techno stuff.
Back then there wasn't a great deal of labels putting this sort of stuff out...alot of it was clustered onto labels such as warp/rephlex/rising high/R&S/Mute etc

I also had the VHS video for this and it was fucking epic on acid
