Why is 2010's electronic music so fucking shit?

The 80's were great with electro, synthpop, new wave all paving the way for house and techno to come.
The 90's were the peak for electronic music, with genres such as ambient house, jungle, acid techno, breaks, IDM and many more emerging and taking the world by storm. 70% of classic electronic music albums come from the 90's.
The 00's were decent as well. Minimal techno, glitch, electro-clash, even DnB all had to say something for themselves.
And what does the 2010's have? Vaporwave, hypnagogic pop, PC Music. Slowed-down 80's music, chipmunk eurodance and MIDI diarrhea are considered genius and the best to come from the decade, even though they would've been considered a joke had they been released in the 90's or early 00's.

Am I missing something? What the actual fuck is happening here.

Much like the 90's were a callback to 60's culture, the 2010's are a callback to 80's culture. And as we all know it 80's culture was absolute garbage.

Great rec anon, Rolando Simmons is talented as fuck, can't wait to see what he has planned for 2017 . There's a lot of other up and coming talent out there as well, it's just harder to find not because there's a lack of good music as much as it is the sheer abundance of music you have to sift through with everybody on SC and BC to find whatever it is that resonates with you.

afx interview in 2001:

>What does Warp Records mean to you these days?
(laughing). Not a lot. The difference between them and any other record company is getting smaller and smaller which is why I’m not going to release any more records on Warp. One single maybe but I doubt it. I have to stop them all the time. I did a promo for the album and they wanted to release it as a single. If’ve got to constantly make sure that they don’t push me too far.

>Why do you release your new double album „Drukqs“ on Warp?
Eh, that’s quite a good question. I’m sort of contractually obliged to release with them. I’ve got no problem with them at all, so it’s not a big deal. At the same time me and Squarepusher are starting up our own label. I released those acid mixes („2 Remixes by AFX“, MEN1). That’s our first release.

>Why do you want another label?
Mainly because Tom’s got a real problem being on a label where there’s other artists he hates. He hates everything on Warp. He doesn’t like Autechre, he doesn’t like, mmh, I don’t know. He likes the old things. „LFO“ is probably the last record he liked (laughs). He doesn’t like to carry everyone along. I don’t mind being on a label where there’s shit people. I don’t like that music on Warp either. And I’m aware that they benefit from what you do. They’re like „Oh, we’re on Warp“ and people take notice of that and then they buy their records and stuff. But it doesn’t bother me as much as Tom. But because he’s a good mate I understand what he’s saying. So we prefer to do it ourselves because it’s more pure. If it was up to me „Drukqs“ would be on Rephlex but I contractually have to give it to Warp.

The Astral Plane (!!)
TAR (Tessier-Ashpool Recs.)
Orange Milk Records (!!)
Apothecary Compositions

Those started to pop-up by the end of the decade, ironically enough.

Way up until 2006-2007 at least the 00's were all about TDR-esque futuistic minimalism, a style itself from the late 90's.

Nice.

The 2010s have tons of good albums actually, and quality movements like outsider house and UK Bass and whatnot. I honestly believe Vaporwave, PC Music and other post-internet jank will fall in the same trashbin that other overhyped shitty movements of the past did, like 00's gimmicky IDM/breakcore and 90's derivative big beat and progressive trance.

I don't know what he was thinking with that 5 minute intro track that just loops over and over again. The textures are top-notch I like how he takes these typical chiptuney sounds and make them sound placid and sinister. Also I freaking love that yoshi hatching sound.

the list i replied two covered a lot of different stuff so i did to, Blackest Ever Black and Modern Love (Andy Scotts label) have a lot of moody dark stuff, Stroboscopic Artefacts and Subtext are labels on the deeper end of (dub) techno, Diagonal is Powell's label and releases loads of crazy synthy EBM type stuff

I thought some of it was cool at first, like EasyFun and Danny L Harle. It just got dated really quickly, and to be honest, I think there came way more interesting music out of the whole cultural obsession with accelerationism, than the alienating pop pastiche of PC Music.

>quality movements like outsider house and UK Bass and whatnot
In contrast to the current experimental club scene headed up by artists such as Lotic, Ziúr and the NAAFI collective, lo-fi producers are almost exclusively white and male. It would be easy to say that these artists will be judged on the quality of the music and not their names, but while the music is arguably better than you’d get from the average Ibiza tech-house DJ, the lo-fi scene is currently still a microcosm of the diversity issues that affect house and techno as a whole.

I love the 90s too but half of jungle and DNB was just amen breaks shoved through a sampler on 50% of "classic" tracks, which wouldnt get you 100 soundcloud followers in 2017

the technology has increased so much that almost nothing is impressive anymore.
>>
>>70206387
Nah it's his best. It just attacks the listener with a very large variety of sounds, rhythms and melodies within a short amount of time, so it takes a lot of time to digest it.

also add these labels:

i think making the really weird vaporwave stuff is a lot more difficult than making this "classic" breakbeat track, which is literally just 4 chords from a Korg M1, a non-chopped Amen Break, and a sample of a dolphin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjFYv6crYik

the problem is that most of the weird vaporwave shit is boring and isn't designed to be catchy / danceable

Something like Vaperror's Acid Arcadia or any of Machine Girl's stuff has a lot more effort put into it than 90s dance tracks, by far.

ALSO PIC FUCKING RELATED, its still possible to make really cool catchy creative shit, but almost no one does it.

It's the easiest OPN album to digest. It's just nu-metal recontextualized into MIDI with a few ironic trance and EDM pads thrown into the mix. Also the whole Ezra storyline and text to speech singing is just gimmicky and stupid.

>>70206508
Yeah but at the same time stuff like Photek or 4hero still had more effort put into it than something like Floral Schoppe. Jungle evolved from non-chopped amen use by '93, whereas a good majority of vaporwave these days is still ambient collage that's having it's laziness obfuscated by aesthetics.

Just stop it already, GoD is not "memetronica", OP obviously doesn't know shit and hasn't bothered to look very far outside shitty meme music.

wow thats some really indepth analysis

its a shitty album, made by taking metal compositions and throwing them into midi and adding on some Korg pads.

and the entire artistic work surrounding the album (cring ARG shit) was embarrassing.
>>
>>70206717
well a lot of those are before 2010's artists who happen to still be making music, not really representative of newer scenes and artist development

from the ones that actually fit the criteria, I selected the only ones that measure up. OPN is ok I guess, but massively overrated, but I guess it's better than people jerking off to jamie xx or something

I don't give a fuck about how an album is made. I only care about the end product, and whether it consists of metal thrown into MIDI or not, I don't really care, I think it was executed very well. I liked how it conceptualized being a teenager in such a "direct" way.

It produced some sounds and emotions that I haven't experienced with much other music. That doesn't mean that its even near being my favourite album, but it was unique and enjoyable.

just look up record labels, artists names in a lot of electronic music are pretty ephemeral, it's more the record label that is the foundation

plenty of labels have been listed in this thread, including some shit ones, but w.e. you can check em out and see. Some of it's also up to taste, I fucking hate jungle and footwork but they have a scene and community going so good for them.
>>
>>70206911
And you're dodging answering my question. You assumed from a post that those are the epitome of great electronic musicians, while I had never said anything like that. I merely defended them saying that they're not bad artists, and saying that they are would be absurd.

Oh, and you forgot to give us examples of all the patrician electronic music you know :)
>>
>>70206476
How the fuck is GoD memetronica? It's his most musically complex work with its progressive rock style structures. Shit's pretty unique for electronic music in general which chooses to go for a more minimalism style format than GoD.

Nu metal doesn't have the layers that GoD does. No sounds like GoD does either, and certainly doesn't have the kind of polyphonic work going on in GoD.

If all you get out of GoD is nu metal baby tier jump the gun memes, you're ADD as fuck and don't want to give closer attention to music and just throw it away when it doesn't initially appeal to you. Aka a faggot who's no different from a person who only listens to radio shit.

Is it not relevant at all that they made music this decade that is fresh and interesting? Syro is a ridiculously ambitious work of all analog music using a ton of analog gear to make an album that would be far easier to make digitally, but was done analog to have it sound distinct. Also sounds nothing at all like other Aphex. From The Far Future Pt. 2 sounds not even close to Dixon's earlier stuff with how unconventional its putting together of various sounds is; it's weirdly sorta like the Trout Mask Replica of techno where these sounds shouldn't work together but as one goes through each track...they kinda work.

>from artists who don't come from a particular music scene
That's what makes them such standout artists because it legit feels like they are doing their own thing. It's also what leads to their music being fresh instead of the ubiquitous stuff that's out there otherwise.

I could've earlier listed a bunch of other cool releases that have come out in the 2010s, stuff that would be probably more approved by others here, but that would be missing the point of this topic, which is to talk about fresh and new things happening rather than just a quality take on an older sound/style.

>who don't represent an actual aesthetic beyond "heres some music magazine approved electronic albums for my collection!"
They all have their own unique (musical) aesthetics rather than just copying someone else. That's why some of them are given love from magazines, fans, etc.

I do like that most of electronic music stays away from the image bullshit because then one can judge based on what really matters, the music (not image, not gimmicks, not hype). Hell, the one guy who does do stupid gimmick shit, Dean Blunt, I am not even all that big a fan of. But then, I also think Black Metal's the only good thing to come from the guy.

no it's because every single one of them has their release on a large label who has a PR person who sends tons of info and materials to all the music mags to review. If you don't have the PR department, it's basically only by some luck or some writer with a specific taste that you would be covered.

For example, is Laurel Halo shit? Nah, her stuff's ok, but honestly it's not much different or interesting than the myriad of stuff that comes out on 1080p, Lobster Theremin, etc, but because her album is on Hyperdub records with a solid PR department that is well connected to the music mags it will get all the attention. Rinse repeat for almost everything you listed.

They don't go trawling through all of music trying to find things (ok, maybe tmt does). They get coverage, then they get talked about on here and suddenly everyone mysteriously only knows bleep-bloops that come from hyperdub, warp, honest jon's, modern love etc, and that's largely because of industry connects.

What are you on about, those labels are nothing like any of those artists. Also, those two labels are overrated massively and use the same kind of PR techniques, they just do it in different ways, look at SLF and the way Jimmy markets his music.

What are you on about? OPN himself wasn't on a larger label until R+7 for example. Most of those records that were given coverage were also not given a lot of love from publications that weren't The Wire, Resident Advisor, and TMT.

I put Pita on my list, and the guy was on the same label as OPN's older one, yet has never gotten much mainstream attention.

>comparing Halo to Lobster Theremin
Lobster Theremin is a one trick pony that only does lofi house and lofi techno stuff. Laurel Halo released something that's in between Bjork, synthpop, and IDM.

You talk about Hyperdub's decent PR department, but do you talk about how much freedom they give their artists to do whatever the fuck they want? They take risks that way ranging from Halo's Quarantine to something awful like Burial's latest attempt.

Hating on more well known labels just because they are well known is dumb. It's not like they are releasing basic bitch tier music. Warp is as mainstream as it gets for such labels, yet they went on and released one of the most inaccessible releases in recent times with Autechre's elseq1-5.

yes. labels have a lot of investment costs to release music and organize tours etc, so most of them try to have a curated set of releases, not just "anything you want goes!!!" type stuff.

Idk about warp and hyperdub though, they probably could afford to let any of their bigger artists do whatever, it's not like burial tours anyways.

Burial is a massive cash cow for Hyperdub. He could release anything and still make money.

Steve is surely the kind of guy who would give 100% artistic freedom to the artists on his label.

>>
>>70208067
It depends. So an closer example to what these guys are accusing Hyperdub to be can be found in what sometimes works as its metal/punk counterpart, Deathwish. If you are on Deathwish, expect everything to have that post-Converge's Jane Doe style Kurt Ballou production, with vocals all modified to sound more "raw" through studio magic. So even though you got this label that's got some relative variety in punk/metal like Converge, Deafheaven, and Oathbreaker, they all tend to have a similar sound.

Then you got more typical electronic dance music labels like Lobster Theremin or for a more mainstream example, Spinnin. They release just one or two very particular styles of music. These guys have a heavy restriction on how the music on their label should be because their business model is based on fans that come to the label for that kind of music. It's why there's often a higher focus on labels than individual artists in the bleep scene.

But then you got spots like Hyperdub and Warp that started off like the above labels doing on prime style of electronic music then started branching out, and thus use their status as being bigger names to be able to allow their artists to do anything. No way anyone these days can necessarily release their very first project on these labels though (Laurel Halo had four releases prior to Quarantine.)

>>70208373

No, Keysound is run by Blackdown who is a really big fan/person friend of Burial. He has a bunch of Burial dubs, Temple Sleeper was made ages ago and Blackdown is a big fan of all forms of UK music, especially garage. Because it's basically a speed garage tune he released it. This is a tune he made with Burial:

I can only speak for myself, but I've never said that it's challenging. However, it, as someone else mentioned, has much more layers than just nu-metal. I like the unique sound of it, and as I said, I think some of the songs are packed with youthful emotion (if that makes sense).
>>
>>70208372
Not gonna deny that, it's just that it's all been that within a similar style of lofi sounding house/techno.
>>
>>70208379

Also pretty incorrect. Comparing Deathwish to Hyperdub is a bit ridiculous considering Hyperdub release pretty much every kind of dance music genre.

I wouldn't call LT a "typical" dance music label, since it's pretty much just Jimmy releasing music that he likes and if anything it has a more specific sound, like Deathwish.

Spinnin' definitely has a restriction on what you can release because it's all garbage lad house.

Hyperdub started out as Steve releasing his own music and spread from that, much like a lot of dance music labels. Dance music labels like these, I'd call "underground" labels, as in they're not EDM. Most of these labels just run as a crew or one person releasing music similar to what they produce/enjoy DJing.
>>
>>70208641
I'm not too well versed in bleep-bloop labels, but I actually got all that from what he said. With Deathwish he meant a specific sound, i.e. the way Kurt likes to produce vocals, not that the labels music is very specific since they have a variety of stuff. And he wasn't saying Hyperdub is like Deathwish, he was saying that previous posters were implying they were.

Anyways, I rolled through some tracks on Lobster Theremin and I get what you mean; it's a bit like small black metal labels in which the labels is really just one or two guys who are releasing stuff they like that fits a certain taste.
>>
>>70208641
Other dude wrote exactly what I was gonna post, and also like I said >>70208574, it definitely to an extent does the "focus around one or two styles" thing regardless of whether Jimmy intends it or not.

Have you ever eaten a delicious fast food meal and enjoyed it? Maybe you are partial to the McRib, or the Whopper, or the Chick-Fil-A Spicy Chicken Sandwich, or a Crunchwrap Supreme.

NO, DEFINITELY NOT. I know you well. For every meal you ever eat, you go to a 5-star restaurant and eat food that has been carefully crafted by an expert chef. Every flavor, every aroma, every texture, every color, every ingredient is intentional, and the dish is absolutely perfect.

When you choose to watch film, you don't enjoy low comedy or action movies. You watch superior independent artistic films.

The cars that you drive are not for economy, or for comfort, nor even for speed. You drive in only luxurious, artistically crafted cars that are perfectly engineered and tuned.

You don't have to think my argument is good. You just have to enjoy it for its aesthetic value.

totally different anon here but the way it was spaced really let the argument breathe. Nice capitalized letters WITHOUT exclamation points as well. It really let the reader know you objected, but you didn't come across as sounding desperate at all either. Overall it was a lush, well-crafted argument that was really easy on the eyes. Good work.

I think R+7 is his best but GoD is still really good and his 2nd best.

The text to speech was kind of cringy to me at first but he plays with the chipspeech parameters so much that it makes for a really cool effect. And the rhythms and intensity are really unmatched for him.

Atmospherically, it's a bit less consistent and conceptual, I think (minus voice samples of children or children-sounding aliens), unlike some of his past work, but from a technical perspective it's extremely satisfying and hard-hitting to me.

>its a shitty album, made by taking metal compositions and throwing them into midi and adding on some Korg pads.

I'm 99% sure he composed everything himself, from scratch, with MIDI keyboards and some synths. He's only "taking metal compositions" in the same way any artist is inspired by any genre.

Literally the only genre not at it's all time low right now is electronic and hip hop

rap is probably in the worst slump it's ever been in. Where are all the good rappers and great albums at the moment? Rap is over 40 years old now and starting to show it. Not as bad as rock is right now, but the same themes, production methods, cadences, etc. are being exhausted.

I probably come across as being offensive but honestly, who are your top five rappers right now? favorite albums? and favorite producers?
>>
>>70218295
Atrocity Exhibition is pretty interesting. But yeah, the genre as a whole is kind of stagnating.
>>
>>70218207
bitch you can't come in here and not argue something. Where do you stand on this little factoid?

cause bitch I'm for it
>>
>>70218375
cmon man, not here
>>
>>70218328
I'll agree that Atrocity Exhibition had some great, original sounding production. I like Danny due to his versatility and and ability to change voice and change energy. But really AE was, lyrically and thematically, another Danny Brown album, minus the story telling or humor found on past releases. It was shilled into something it wasn't, unfortunately. Still though, it was a good rap album overall.
>>
I sort of agree with OP on this but not entirely. While a lot of the electronic music I listen to comes from artists who started in the 90s and 2000s, I'd argue that there have been plenty of great releases in the past 6-7 years. Its just that many of those artists were already active before 2010. When I look at my collection in discogs, I see many great releases from 2010 and later, but few artists that started after 2010. I think that electronic/dance/whatever is just so overcrowded from an overall release standpoint that plenty of gems from new artists get ignored or achieve minor recognition because of the glut of older more popular artists dropping a single or album every few months.

tl;dr: there's already a shit ton of music out there and the internet just makes it easier to find all of it
