Oh shit that's gonna leave a stain
Oh hey guess what
My continued lack of self-control whilst trolling Boomkat has once again yielded you a riches of stuff.
Bestboygrip - Fonck EP
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Enhanced Electro-Boogie from Bestboygrip - apparently a German D&B producer working under the cover of anonymity. On the A-side he knocks out the terrific slow jammer 'Fonck' with deftly nudged drum machine syncopations and a proper lazered finish. Architeq follows with a dubbier remix in a slower yet busier and more kinetic style. On the flip 'Copyright' struts on a tidy disco vibe driven by plump bass and a bristling percussion before stepping up with the more soulful proto-house/disco bounce of 'Cross My Mind'. This EP will almost definitely appeal to fans of Luke Vibert, Ilija Rudiman or The Emperor Machine.

Jacques Renault - Marilyn's Gold
I don't know where Brokklyn is, but I like the music that comes out of it! For the DFA bros.
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Brokkyln's Jacques Renault follows Young Marco's excellent Hand Of God debut with two tracks of dubby disco grooves. 'Marilyn's Gold' bustles with crisp congas, whistles and proper party vibes, and 'Pleasure' hits a dubbier rut of filtered edit styles compatible with your Trus'me tunes.

Think - Scraps EP
Been awhile since I got some proper dubstep type stuff. This is more in the old Pinch vein, which is to say it has clean production with plenty of dubby touches. Nice and cold, but lacking the meathead tendencies of your Distances or Caspas.

Matt Whitehead - Raw Deal
Fresh off last week's single comes another true electro pair from Matt Whitehead. Blast it from your boombox and there's no guarantee Ice-T won't show up in bondage gear.

Goliath - Hidden Agenda
Mid-period Autechre machine music. Tops!
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Four years after his 'Mineral Kingdom' album, Goliath returns with a new single for the Z-Bop imprint. 'Hidden Agenda' features six tracks of sci-fi-infected electro, working with a pared-down palette of hardware for a focused and efficient set of tracks catering for the floor or home listening. From tentative, skittering opner 'Gilgamesh', 'Ecce Monstrum' becoems more agitated, dropping us into the Drexciyan 'Physica', the EBM-ish darkwave of the title track and concluding with the dystopian Der Zyklus type effort 'Infiniti'.

Lonan - Cryosphere
More IDM goodness... Essentially early Skam distilled down to an essence. There seems to be a lot of stuff like that out there these days, but even so this is a prime cut of it. Emotive, melodic, never boring.

Slugabed / Ghost Mutt - Donky Stomp EP
If you know Slugabed you know he hits the bass like a fuckin' sledgehammer and somehow makes it good. This is no exception.
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Some of that dutty electronic wonk from Slugabed and Ghost Mutt, backed with a Mweslee remix. 'Donky Stomp' is a relatively clean and restrained production for Slugabed, and to be honest, all the better for it. The spacious production gives more room for his bassline to billow out while the drums are tucked tight and right, making for a wide appealing instrumental hiphop cut. Following this, Mweslee gives a uniquely dynamic and heavier crunk version fitted with his complex spacial perceptions, and Ghost Mutt drops two screwy bleep joints, pulling off a killer James Blake/Mount Kimbie sound in 'Thoroughbred'.

Jefre cantu-Ledesma - Love Is A Stream
For the people who like their ambience to be like looking over a vast, sunny expanse.
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Best known as a founding member of Tarentel and The Alps, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma returns with a brand new album for Type having previously released solo material through Spekk, Arbor and his own label, Root Strata. "Love Is A Stream" marks a radical rethink of the classic dream-pop template, taking an impressionist's brush to the established genre traits. Full of noise and expertly sculpted feedback, tracks such as 'Loving Love' feel like an all-analogue take on Fennesz's noisier moments, complete with hazy exchanges between skyscraping major 7th chords; you might equally suggest that Love Is A Stream goes some way towards joining the dots between My Bloody Valentine and more recent drone-pop scene leaders such as Tim Hecker and Grouper. Although the dominant component parts of this sound seem to spring from the fiery embers of molten synthesizers and tape saturated guitar tones, the album derives some of its luxurious textural presence from vocals supplied by the likes of Type boss John 'Xela' Twells, Lisa McGee and Maxwell August Croy. You can just about make out lost voices roaming around the pulverised mix of 'Stained Glass Body' and the billowing 'River Like Spine' (though it's fairly hard to make any single element out, given how melted and fluid the mixing is), bringing a frail human element to an album that otherwise sounds entirely not of this Earth. Beautiful music.

Jauzas The Shining - My Beauty
This one is all over the place, with some striking cover art. It would be fairly dancefloor-oriented if it weren't for all the long pauses. The remixes are uniformly interesting, though, including one by the aforementioned Goliath.

And finally
Just one track from the Nosaj Thing remix album - I wasn't interested in buying the whole thing. This is the Dorian Concept remix of "Voices".

Cire27:
This thread sometimes makes me wish I were more inclined towards electronic music.
Wasteroo:
holy shit that Slugabed split is excellent
edit: also everyone who likes Yellow Swans or Kevin Drumm or Fennesz download that Love is a Stream album right now, it is so good
meanwhile:
many thanks KvP :lol:

The Thermals - The Body, The Blood, The Machine (2006)
Amazing Sub Pop punk from Portland, Oregon, produced by Brendan Canty from Fugazi. It's a concept album about the United States becoming a fascist Christian theocracy, and it's incredible.
