Intelligent dance music (commonly abbreviated as IDM) is a style of electronic music originating in the early 1990s, defined by idiosyncratic experimentation rather than specific genre constraints. It emerged from the culture and sound palette of electronic and rave music styles such as ambient techno, acid house, Detroit techno and breakbeat; it has been regarded as better suited to home listening than dancing. Prominent artists associated with it include Aphex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, Venetian Snares, Boards of Canada, Telefon Tel Aviv, μ-Ziq, the Black Dog, the Future Sound of London, and Luke Vibert.

Beautiful song for a Cylobian Sunday! I'm still on a real Cylob kick, it's been hard to avoid posting too many in a row lol.

Some other highlights from this playlist are Inseminoid, Kyoto, We Never Said Goodbye, Total Information Awareness, and Relent.

[NEW] µ-Ziq - Grush (mikeparadinas.bandcamp.com)
submitted 1 year ago by Die4Ever@programming.dev to c/idm@lemm.ee
 
 

Upcoming album by Mike Paradinas, releases June 14th 2024. The single preview track, Hyper Daddy, is pretty great! I added this one to my wishlist.

Mike Paradinas, veteran producer and Planet Mu label owner has written a new album called 'Grush and it's full of weird bangers that reclaim the 'dance' part of the woeful term IDM. A back-to-first-principles record, inspired in part by the group of artists IDM was coined for; melodic dance music that didn't come out of urban scenes, but interpreted them from a distance. The tracks on Grush' are all road-tested live favorites developed with feedback from Mike's touring partner and visuals guy ID:Mora (Jan Moravec). It's a detailed and energetic journey which replicates the flow ofa live gig. A lot of the tracks have been made in hotel rooms in response to shows, Imperial Crescent' is named after a Japanese Hotel, as is 'Belvedere' in Prague, while some tracks such as Hyper Daddy' were created specifically to play live. Drums are confidently at the fore here and the album feels like it traces Mike's musical history and interests neatly around his sweetly nostalgic melodies, with atmospheres and structures which twist and turn with a charming softness which contrasts with the tension in the drums. Take 'Hyper Daddy's' spiralling notes and twinkling piano which remind one of early Black Dog or Omni Trio rushing alongside splashy jungle drums, or the aquatic acid footwork of the title track with its drums softly bubbling and kicking. Elsewhere there's territory which harks back to his Tusken Raiders pseudonym, like the heads down Drexciyan funk of Windsor Safari Park, which transforms from moody electro into a sunny hardcore track midway. The album is interspersed with Reticulum A, B and C at the start middle and end of the album which suggest a theme which carries across the music in an effortless and joyful way. 'Grush' is a strong album that works both for listening and DJing and a great snapshot of where Mike Paradinas musical head is at in 2024.

I made a playlist for the album Hyper Typewriter cause you know I always like sharing playlists with you guys instead of single tracks, but not all of the songs were on Youtube so a few are missing.

Here's the Bandcamp for all the tracks: https://wagawaga.bandcamp.com/album/hyper-typewriter
