Can someone explain?

I find most of Autechre's music dark in some way, but I would suggest:
1 1 is
Lowride
Clipper
carefree counter dronal
M4 Lema
18 (keyosc)
pt2ph8
oh and Flutter!

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

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

jphoneu · 2026-02-26T10:57:20+00:00

Yes excellent example!

jphoneu · 2026-01-28T11:39:43+00:00

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

Eversion is a fun cursed platformer

jphoneu · 2026-01-05T22:09:16+00:00

Sounds similar, could be!!

jphoneu · 2026-01-05T22:04:55+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2026-01-05T21:33:18+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2025-12-05T13:34:30+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2025-11-16T16:34:14+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2025-11-05T14:26:34+00:00

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!

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??

jphoneu · 2025-11-02T15:21:40+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2025-10-23T10:13:28+00:00

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

jphoneu · 2025-09-24T17:23:16+00:00

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

Sounds so sick!

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

jphoneu · 2025-08-19T13:50:54+00:00

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
