I wouldn't call Holden minimal, it's everything but minimal...

just a note.


Posted by Brandon H. on Nov-06-2006 23:42:

Well, its debatable. I'm not much of genre labeling and 'Oh thats not that' and what not. But some the tracks on At The Controls, note i said SOME are indeed minimalistic, including 10101..thats my opinion. I dont think minimal, or techno or whatever has to be just clicks and blips. And the track he posted, is NOT just clicks in blips, theres evidence of melody and tonality which is also evident in Holden's newer minimalistic productions.

Also +1 for the last post

Great labels also-

Trapez
Relay
Zzz = amazing
Phonocult
Spectral Sound

now because im NOT going to get into a genre debate, i doubt that all the music on these labels are 'minimal'...but definitley some sick tracks that would work in perhaps a minimal techno aimed set.

and with that, im done being a jackoff

Monolake- Index. The most minimal track I have ever heard


Posted by PETRAN on Nov-07-2006 00:58:

People keep talking about minimal, but classical labels like basic channel are not mentioned, a bit strange e?This means that the three BEST minimal producers of ALL time are not mentioned.Namely Maurizio, Basic Channel and Fluxion!I consider Fluxion to be the best ever...

Fluxion- "Lark"

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF34502-01-01-01.mp3

Fluxion- "Atlas"

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF34502-01-02-01.mp3

(Amazing hypnotic track that keeps building and building...)

Fluxion- "Redundant"

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF70922-01-01-01.mp3

Fluxion- "Deviation-1"

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF70922-01-02-01.mp3

Fluxion- "Friction-Pulse"

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF62490-01-02-02.mp3


The crazy thing about this music is that you can get very strange acoustic effects by just listening to it. For example there is somekind of aural ambiguity, which means that you can get different perceptions (acoustic interpretations) of a single tune depending on which aspect of the tune (rhythm,sample,melody)you choose to pay attention to.

Anyway enough with this psychological stuff, i would also like to reccomend another site which is full of free downloadable minimal dj sets. Its the famous (in minimal circles) Betoni...

Oh yeah...Monolake, David Alvarado, John Tejada and Aril Brikha are also great.

Biosphereeee!!!I have "Substrata" and its one of my favorite albums!Dark, atmospheric, strange, it's beautifull in a weird way!"cirque" is also nice. I would say biosphere's music is also a kind of minimalistic ambient. Very nice.

I gotta agree with you the reccomendations, and say that most of them are just falling either in the "just-techno" category or in this "pseudo-neo-electro-click/glitch-house/techno" of trentemoller (good album and downtempo tracks, terrible dance tracks)and extrawelt etc. and have really NOTHING to do with the originall minimal techno/house of the 90s and of the artists i mention in my previous post. Actually i would consider this kind of "neo-glitch-EDM",just stupid electroish house/techno with lots of terrible samples and some strange disturbing (in most of the times) melodies. I don't know why this plastic non-sense sound became famous now...it's probably because of holden (a great producer that something strange happened to him...) and the SHM trash...

To cocnclude, THIS is the "original minimal"...end.

You are right, some of the people i mentioned are kinda of tech house and stuff....all i was doing is giving some advice...i wasnt trying to bash the 'original' minimal

regardless, they are great producers

"Minimal has no meaning, it's just progressive with a few new plug-ins" James Holden.


Posted by 84th Ave. on Nov-07-2006 04:09:

very well put


Posted by PETRAN on Nov-07-2006 04:19:

If that was stated by James Holden then i will think that he is extremely ignorant of the original minimal techno of the 90s which has NOTHING to do with progressive, or new plug-ins or anything like that...Probably his brain is completely toasted by drugs (unfortunately).Besides that i don't know why people call this new sound minimal, that think was refered to as "click-house" or "glitch-techno" (and this is the sound that holden means) when it first started, i wander when the innapropriate word "minimal" got stuck...also now that i think of it this is the type of music that the thread-starter asks for...

Anyway, i can see that this type of music sounds very raw and dry in opposition to modern fluffy trance, hence it was positively received by many trance (and progressive) addicts for that reason. I like a bit of it now and then, but IMO, the majority of it has a very low quality.

U seem like ur an expert on this or something.....

Music evolves. I never thought things that sound like bad electro-house would ever be called trance. Can't help evolution.
