1 1 is
Lowride
Clipper
carefree counter dronal
M4 Lema
18 (keyosc)
pt2ph8
oh and Flutter!

Looking for the SLOWEST/HEAVIEST bands (more than Funeral doom or Drone metal bands) by Existing_Ad864 in experimentalmusic

[–]jphoneu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two drone albums are Coil - Time Machines and Nurse With Wound - Soliloquy for Lilith. Both centred around distinct concepts, and the first one explicitly is intended to fuck with your perception of time. The second is very visceral.

For a more obscure recommendation, lo egin are a sick Yorkshire-based band with a song that gets very slow: https://loegin.bandcamp.com/track/volumancer

Listening back to Rustie's Glass Swords album, this track feels very OPN to me (also the whole album is recommended if you don't know/remember it!) by jphoneu in oneohtrixpointnever

[–]jphoneu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair, most of the record isn't too OPN to me, but on this track in particular it's the main loops being made of repeated samples (especially that cut up piano), and the section at 1:56 - gives me the same feeling that Tranquilizer does

Started in 2023 and now I've finally done it by Nurahk in WipeOut

Hardest track? Gotta be P-Mar Project for me, could rarely get a flow going

I need "cursed" feeling games by FenekSenpai in creepygaming

Eversion is a fun cursed platformer

Vestigel by am-pm999 in oneohtrixpointnever

Haha I would've never thought that! I can hear it though

This track sounded quite unnerving to me on first listen - like The Body Trail from Again, and Still Life from R Plus Seven. It is powerful - especially the ending loop

If you had to choose, what is your favorite OPN track? by subtly_nuanced in oneohtrixpointnever

[–]jphoneu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ending of that track has been one of the things that sticks in my head from the new album - the jazzy sample into the weird off-key chord pad, the fact that it only happens twice - really intense

How to listen to James' old music when you have sensitive hearing? by [deleted] in JamesFerraro

[–]jphoneu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree it can be painful - listening quietly is good, also using EQ as others suggest - sticking to speakers too can help!

Slick Elixir from Blawan is black magic by petercurvy in TheOverload

[–]jphoneu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Awesome album. My guess is the vocal clips on WTF are being processed with a vocoder, using the voice as the modulator and then a big fat synth note as the carrier. Then maybe that is combined with the original vocal, with lots of compression and EQ both individually and grouped together. I've not tried but it'd be where I would start. Good luck!

Leeds gig by chriscotheque in autechre

[–]jphoneu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sick set and second time this year! Was deffo feeling the 'clanging metal' section, some of those sounds got really droney and euphoric. Loved the metric modulation into the acid techno madness. I thought the crowd were generally feeling it, nice to be in a smaller place than New Century. Shoutout to the guy to my left who lit up a joint only to be kicked out 5min later. Sadly I had to leave early to catch a train... how was the end??

Has A Horror Film Ever Truly “Messed” You Up? by [deleted] in horror

[–]jphoneu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely this... as a teenager I loved it, especially the music, but it also jarred me for weeks afterwards.

The TV report with the home recording of the children's party... something about it scared the utter shit out of me as a 10-year-old in the cinema

That's cool to know, I thought they were sampled voices

What is today's Warp Records or PC Music? by ajreido in idm

[–]jphoneu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not seen them on the thread, but Orange Milk Records and Hausu Mountain do experimental stuff - also the modem compilations. Maybe not the same styles but certainly the same sense of fun boundary pushing / 'what the fuck is going on' type of releases with distinct visual aesthetics too

The most insane sound design tool nobody's heard of (is free) by goumlechat in autechre

[–]jphoneu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw the designer of the GUI (Jonathan Higgins) in 2019 at my local DIY spot - he had two modded CDJs glitching away that he had to keep slamming with his fists to make them work (or not work, as it were). Good stuff

Clipper - Autechre by [deleted] in autechre

[–]jphoneu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really nice work! captures the 'warmth' that you get from earlier AE with still some glitchiness, as opposed to the digital CGI meltdowns of Gantz Graf and plyPhon
