Ok i'll download "Dark Sun Machine" mostly because it has an awesome name and i could actually picture it in the front cover of an experimental-dark-industri-ambient-with-coldwave-influences album :wtf:
Im not really into fast BPM, or to be more precise, i don't care about BPM speed. I have tried (listen and sometimes DJ) many styles of EDM, from Epic and Psy trance (when i was younger lol)to progressive (house and trance), detroit techno,deep/dub techno, tech and deep house (and even funky and disco-house and thats because that was the stuff they used to play all the time in the mainstream clubs of Greece during the end-of-the-90s :whip: ), so its not about BPM speed, but more about the elements of a tune e.g. to be "atmospheric" with nice pads or some nice melody layered with some hypnotic rhythm or very upbeat groove etc. (although i rarely listen to EDM now)
I can understand that those techno sets you have recorded are more "club-oriented" though rather than "home-listening-oriented" so i could see that they could work in a small cool sweaty club. I know about Samim,i have heard other tunes than "Heater" (i used to have his album which i downloaded from a P2P service-Yeah!) and i insist on the fact that he makes (IMO) an abomination-of-wanna-be-good-tech-house/techno-or-whatever (which means bad EDM). But you never know what happens in a small cool sweaty club (and cocaine is a helluvadrug).
The problem with the majority of todays EDM is that there is no "substance" IMO. I mean, take a listen to System-J's Epic-House sets, yes, he is a post-teenage-fanboy full of angst, but still, those mid-90s sets of his are awesome, period ( plus, the track selection and mixing are excellent by the way). Every track has an "attitude",a specific "ID" that makes it distinct from other tracks in the set. One can take a listen to those sets, and remember that there were some actual seperate tracks mixed in there, not just a 70-minute bleep-bop unts unts sequence with some effects thrown-in. I mean, a 70-minute bleep-blop sequence with some effects thrown-in could be excellent for a small sweaty club (and cocaine is a helluva drug) but its not...like...real music. I can understand the "rawness"/let-loose purpose of such techno sets, but truth it, they are not something memorable. because the tracks themselves are not memorable. Because there are no themes or even some basic musicianship associated with those tracks, just production-tricks and effects which would hopefully "push all the right buttons" and make some random drunk punter's (lol at this British word)mind (?) and/or body move. Ofcourse, this is not necessarily a bad thing, and as i said before, one can have the time of his/her life dancing to this kind of music in a small sweaty club (and cocaine can be a helluva drug). Its just, not something of high quality, and consequently (IMO) not something i would come back to and/or appreciate as the time passes. I guess though that its not the purpose of such music though.
But maybe i listen to "Dark Sun Machine" and change my mind ;)
Now i don't know why i said all this stuff, i guess this post is completely irrelevant to anything. Maybe i was just looking for a reason to say it lol. Anyway, back to Trente. |
