After a long hiatus, Daft Punk returned with Random Access Memories (Daft Life, 2013), a collection of incredibly trivial melodies and beats, the ultimate late-night lounge muzak for a drunk melancholic audience, virtually the antithesis of everything they had done before in the field of electronic dance music. The album is a tribute of sorts to the 1970s, and it includes some of the commercial heroes of that decade (we even get a Giorgio Moroder lecture in the middle of the jazzy and neoclassical jam Giorgio By Moroder), but it is all sterilized and glacially un-emotional. The lightweight disco-era funk of Give Life Back To Music, Get Lucky and Lose Yourself To Dance (that imitate the likes of Chic, which were not exactly Beethoven) betray a colossal dearth of imagination. We don't even get good musicianship, let alone good ideas. There is about one minute in Touch of charleston-like beat with a jovial trumpet: that's as much fun as one gets. These are not laid-back ballads: these are lifeless songs drenched in nostalgia. In the 1970s it was hard to imagine anything more devoid of meaning that a ballad by Hall & Oates or Steely Dan: give it a nostalgic, extremely slow, interpretation and, voila, even the worst of the worst can get worse. The robotic vocals are generally an even worse affront, but Julian Casablancas of the Strokes manages to make them sound human in Instant Crush. Shame on Panda Bear for lending his voice to yet another robotic song, Doin' It Right. A better album would have consisted of the prog-rock instrumentals Motherboard and Contact, which are instead left half-baked.
4/10

This thread is ass lmao
>>69840731
Untrue, or Selected Ambient Works
An amazing album, I'd say it predicted alot about modern technology, computer love, pocket calculator (phones?), not to mention instrumentally it blends breakdancing beats with synthpop
>>69842374

maybe stars of the lid or stockhausen
>>69841978
Truth
/thread
>>69840731
>>69844223
I wouldn't call Stars Of The Lid electronic. Their first few albums are processed guitar, and their more recent stuff is processed orchestral stuff. I think. Maybe I'm wrong
It may be a bit early to even say this because forget just me nobody else has truly fuly processed this, but honestly the sheer ambition on display in elseq is insane. There's top tier sound manipulation going on here whether it's on a macro level like on elseq 1 and 4 or on a far more micro level like on elseq 2 and 3 (they aren't repeating forever with nothing happening at all stfu with that meme.)
I do like how with the manipulation of the sound that's being played being the main thing, the work's from a rhythmic perspective very versatile, ranging from techno to hip hop and everything in between.
This album is the ambient subtleties of the usual Aphex/BOC/older Autechre, this album is the sexy grooves of something like Zomby or Arca, this album is serializing timbre like Stockhausen's earlier works. It's all encompassing.
Who knows? Maybe in some time, once I have really gotten my way through it I may not feel that way, but considering how past Autechre albums have been, and how much it's just constantly offering, idk if that'll happen.
>>69842385

Yes.
>>69843999
MHRTC is better than SAW 85-92.

>>69845118
Maybe listen to Autechre or really most modern day experimental electronic guys. Kontakte was on top for the longest time, but now in the new millennium it's finally being matched, maybe even surpassed.
>>69845316
Autechre is the closest I can think of. Who else would you recommend?

Gérard Pape's Tantric Transformations may interest you in terms of contemporary classical in that realm.
Also check out Frkwys, Vol. 13: Sunergy if you want like a weird new age take on this kinda experimental electronic.
I don't know, but the best psychedelic ambient techno album is definitely Voices from the Lake - s/t

This album is great. Some of the songs on here sound almost.. alive. Lets say they'll have a rhythm going, but it doesn't stay perfectly in one sequence. It has "mistakes" for lack of a better word. It sounds like some being is making this music. Truly fascinating stuff.

I'm just genuinely curious, there's more than half a century of electronic music out there and /mu/ always talks about the same musicians albums. Is it just ignorance or something?
>>69840731
I honestly think this is his best album, and that he's overrated to begin with.
>>69846442

Radiohead's Kid A, for the sheer creativity and innovation
>>69847074
ARCA > ALL THAT LIST
>>69840731
There are too many genres and candidates for a single choice to be accurate so I agree with >>69843851 in that respect.
However if I had to pick one and only one I guess Leftism would be it because it encompasses so much.
>>69845028
Cool pick, Anon. One of my personal favorites and still an underrated album.

I'll defend this record for years
It distills the very different strands of maximalism in house and post-rock into something a bit saccharine but ultimately powerful. Sorta sucks that everyone hated him for it so he basically stopped making music. He coulda been /ourguy/ in the normie world.

>>69848686
How is it not? Apart from jazzy hip-hop, how do you think both the production and instrumentals are handled? Do you know nothing about the history of hip-hop and turntablism?
>>69850277
"Electronic" is a musical style, not a type of production. Yeah, hip hop beats are produced similarly, but that's not what we're talking about in this here thread.
May as well take your logic to extremes and declare any music that isn't 100% acoustic instruments in a live performance as electronic.
