.. spheric/drone/ambient/sick percussion as well/minimalistic/ sound texture music..

A bit like boards of canada or efdemin (efdemin a little bit less techno'ish tho) and stuff like that but I just need to hear other artists. No junk, no medium kind of shit, just the biggest, best produced, perfect sounding shit you know of!


If I get any responses I'll be very very thankful! I'm desperate in hearing some more sick kind of music like this!

Four Tet, Slyboots, Saru, Tosca, OOO, Isan, Trentemoller, Loscil, Arovane, Loess, Ulrich Schnauss, Matthew Adams, Brian Eno, Sinewave, William Orbit
EDIT: Buscemi, Sumo, Gotan Project, Richard Dorfmeister & Madrid de los Austrias, Louie DeVito, J. Warrin & Primo John

yes i remembered that thread. It comes very close to what I seek, but most of the tunes posted there weren't 100% my thing

this is GREAT! exactly what i'm looking for

@ Knell, I've checked out the 3 first artists:

Four Tet is very nice. (this was one I already knew, from the burial collab which is just the end for me). Although, the rest of his stuff is a bit too electronicy and too sleek. I'm missing a bit rawness. (note: I think this is a great artist, but the reason I'm bitching like this is because I want to find exactly what I'm after)

Slyboot is good I think. The only weird thing about them is that some of their tracks are really it, like African Highway for instance. The electronic sounds, the sampled drumpatterns that sound raw as fuck and the funky/souly feel of the synths. But then you also have uglyass tracks like Caught in a Riot (Slyboots remix). OK it's a remix, but still, it sounds like some daft punk electro twist off kind of shit.

Saru is a genius as well. Very nice melodies and compositions, but it could be a bit rawer and scruffy'er. Great music though!

Wow, I'm really amazed by Arovane. Downloaded the Lilies album. Sick stuff

Tosca is/are very very good. Natural High is a very dubby tune, very good stuff. Spaced out aswell I'm loving their drums. I think they sample a lot out of hip hop. Their beats are PHAT as fuck The bassline kills it as well, everytime!

Isan and OOO are sick, nuff said.

Loscil is definitely one of the best so far. His music is so monotone, yet it catches my attention. He also knows how to bring up a certain vibe, mostly a melancholy, sad vibe from the few tunes i've heard.
Will download an album to check it out more in depth

So far i'm very happy with the artists you suggested Knell. There's definitely a few keepers and might be buying some serious good albums too. I love hearing more forward thinking/modern sounding/minimalistic soulful music. These people should get more recognition for what they create. It's pure art on a whole new level


just bumped into this one, this is wonderful

Have you heard of a record shop, label and sound system from Amsterdam called "Staalplaat" http://www.staalplaat.com/?
They produce a weekly newsletter called "Vital" and a podcast dealing with music that covers everything that you have described. Their website is:

Hit the Leaf Label, and hit it hard.
