there are some things that make you cooler just for listening too, for example andy stott

>>6675351

Lol Andy Stott fans, the untermensch plebs of electronic music. Remember to thank P4k for telling you to listen to him

>I love techno, Andy Stott, the list could go on

>>6675493
>Untrmensch
>Hating on Andy Stott
>pretentious about Techno

Are you from Berlin? I hate people like that too. I feel like we could be friends.

Minimal techno a la Berlin style (Kompakt, Basic Channel, etc) always seemed like it was always pretentious enough to be fashionable.

>>6675374
please be le troleing?

>>6675475
we stay together is fucking godlike but i still think luxury problems is better

>>6675719
ive never heard anything like that, i like a few different genres of electronic music andy stott is really the onnly one ive found like him, ive seen stuff like bvdub lumped it with him and minimal dub but i dont really care about tags as long as the music is good. however you seem like an expert in 'techno' so id love u to rec me somethng then

>>6675175

Classic Rock
Classical Music

Pink Floyd put down ~$50,000 as insurance during a record mastering. They wanted a higher audio range which at the time was not possible without exceeding the range of the vinyl cutting equipment.

They knew that if their album was cut any other way it would severely degrade the sound.

If that's not next level confidence in your music I don't know what is.

>>6675736
This album. Get it now and begin your beautiful descent into the the world of minimal.

>>6675753
im already really into minimal but thanks! im downloading it now

>>6675719

Nah, I hate on morons like this one >>6675406 who think listening music makes them "automatically cool", and using that with Andy Stott, babby's first P4k approved techno its just cringe.

It's the equivalent of the fedora neckbeards who listen "jazz" because its le classy

>>6675475
>luxury problems was quite nice, is any of his other stuff good too?

nigga is u srs? his whole discography is flawless.

>>6675753
I love you, Villalobos is great
no one knows him
also get James Holden's album The Idiots are Winning if you don't already have it

>>6675768

>I love you, Villalobos is great
>no one knows him

Wait, are you actually implying that Villalobos isn't that well known??


just....stop. Please

>>6675764
why do people automatically hate on music that was p4k approved, its just as bad as the people who only listen to shit for the same reason

French House definitely. Perhaps it's just because it's French as well, but nothing says fashion to me as some overdone chords, beautiful samples, and a thick snare. Here are a few examples if anyone's curious

By most high brow definitions, this type of music doesn't particularly espouse thought or any deeper meaning, but it definitely goes hard and always makes me think of the runway.

Yeah, no you're not.

Most effay music vid, no doubt

>>6675776

that's not the point though, and thanks to P4K good ol Andrea isn't painting cars anymore (so I like it because of that), but this entire fucking thread is just pathetic. Tell me, why is this any different from le classy gentlemen who listen to der club of gore. Listening to X and Y does not make you "/fa/"

>>6675791

You're on a thread where somebody's claiming Villalobos is "liek so underground and obscure", go figure

>>6675800

>dat Port Gentil


99.9% of the stuff released on CR is worth its weight in gold

>>6675814
underground and obscure?
you mean like Nicolas Jaar???

>>6675840

exactly m8

>>6675814
i completely agree but when you find someone who likes a variety of niche-genres and has a really eclectic taste in music or someone who at least seems to have a really good concept of music its always respectable like someone whos well read
but theres also a difference between "i listen to jazz like coltrane and anyone who doesnt is uncultured swine" and "hey im into x any suggestions"

>>6675840
>>6675846
haha Andy Stott and Nicolas Jaar, somehow the only two electronic artists that people know!

it's a shame b/c they're both talented artists, but they've become these weird crossover musicians.
btw, does anyone know when Jaar's new label is starting up???

>>6675822
mmmm I know, its my favorite label.

>>6675855
Trust (the first release off the label) is dropping early september I believe. I think its just another compilation with the old clown and sunset crowd though

>>6675850

but look at the title of this thread

>What do you consider /fa/ music?

This thread is not about recommendations, its about why any of these wankers who listen to 'pretentious' music think they're /fa/ (read: above everybody else) because their music is something of a niche.

>>6675855

I'd throw a few more in there as well (John Roberts, John Talabot, et al). Not to say the music its bad, it just happens to be more accessible than a lot of other 3deep5me electronic music.

What I have an issue (and I am sure, every single one of those producers) are the twats who think they're more "cultured" than the average joe because they read p4k and are still figuring out how to use discogs

>>6675876
oh alright, thanks man.
I have to say, I'm sort of excited to hear that release, I feel like those C&S artists were always overshadowed by jaar.
it'll be nice for them to have the spotlight for once haha

I also read that Jaar signed some new artists for the label, hopefully they'll be some releases from them soon that breakaway from the typical Jaar vibe if they're not on the comp

>>6675889
I agree with you, but I just wanna say, and I think we can all agree:
That last John Talabot record was on fucking point.

>>6675908
Definitely, man.
Last Land was a top 3 track of that year IMO.

>>6675908

That it was. And seeing him live with Pional was fucking ace. All live percussion everything.

>>6675889
It is ironic isn't? The p4k drone who thinks he's a cut above the average radio listener even though they're both just having their music spoon fed to them.

I think a lot of it has to do with exploring music yourself. Many of the p4k artists are quite good in truth, but if you are just letting someone tell you want to listen to instead of exploring your own interests, you have no cultural currency. Its as simple as that.

>>6675925

oops wrong pic uploaded but w/e, same venue, same night

I see a lot of bleeps fan in here, any of you goes to Mutek?

>>6675956
>Mutek
I wish man. Stranded in middle America here.
Funny how that works. I'm probably a 2 full day drive from any type of place that would play this type of music or any scene to get excited about, but the internet works wonders.

>>6675956
Please tell me you saw Herbert do that fucking pig thing.

>>6675932

>Many of the p4k artists are quite good in truth

This 10x. The problem is that P4K is the lowest of the low when it comes to music reviews: 0 star reviews (honestly, I can agree with not liking an album but a 0 star reeks of cuntery), shoddy reviews with wrong facts (stay the fuck away from p4k if you want to read decent articles about electronic music) and personal vendettas against some bads (TMV comes to mind)

Read Wire if you must. And Resident Advisor, even if I don't like their hard-on for Berghain techno

>>6676002

nope sry I was only able to go during the weekend this year

Saw Talabot/Pional, Laurel Halo, Ame, Efdemin (fuck yeah) Henrik Schwarz/Pantha du Prince, Moritz von Oswald/Juan Atkins, John Roberts, and a few others

been going since '10 and I ain't gonna stop anytime soon

>>6675986

How far away from Detroit are you?

>>6676003
FACT is a pretty good publication too, but they definitely have a UK bias

>>6676026
Google maps says 7 hours
So i guess that's something.

>>6676053

damn son I was gon' say, Movement/DEMF is just a good, but I guess it depends how badly you want to go. I live 5 hours away from Montreal, its all worth it imho.

>>6676179
An honest truth.

Between Sunbather, Yeezus, and constant mention of fedora, /mu/ has become next to unlurkable

>Classic Rock
>Minimalist Techno
>Industrial-inspired music (Death Grips, Yeezus, etc.)
>Trap
>Chillwave
>Anything that has effay singers/musicians

That's best I could do.

>>>/mu/
It depends on who you want to impress
Listening to music because it's fashionable is like wearing clothes because they're trendy
if you want to impress plebs, listen to whatever's hyped on pitchfork
asking /fa/ about music is like asking /mu/ about clothes

I listen to Purity Ring, Born Gold and some Grimes when I'm in the city, unless I'm out clubbing.

>>6675822

Ambient music is typically /fa/.

My steeze right now is Diiv, Real Estate, and Beach Fossils which I think, is pretty /fa/.

>>6676410
is that a mullet i see?

>>6676353
are u kidding me?

if ur going for the edgy gooby ninja aesthetic DG TOTALLY fit dude

>>6676429
>doesn't provide examples of music he/she likes/thinks is /fa/ to validate buzzwords

Sure is /mu/ up in here

>>6676410
Yeah whatever it is. Mix tape/album/compilation potato potahto

>>6676430

>Ambient music is typically /fa/.

not it isn't. 'Ambient' is what shitty producers do when they realize they suck at making bleeps. Ambient music has the lowest ratio of good albums versus shitty ones

>>6676506
depends on what "school" of ambient it is.
projects like Wolfgang Voigt's Gas are extremely nuanced and layered, but like you said, there's ambient that relies solely on being "SO CHILL"

>>6676556

yes Gas omfg, I love it all, Pop is GOAT

Sorry if I came across as an asshole but this is what I meant to say

> there's ambient that relies solely on being "SO CHILL"

I find amazing the humongous amount of "ambient" music out there yet most of it its so fucking forgettable (pic not related)
