What is the best Autechre record in your opinion?
Wooo great thread guys
Untilted, but LP5 is a close second
These two tracks from this album are the most emotional IDM tracks I've heard (which isn't saying much considering how much IDM I've heard). Anything similar/thoughts?

Are there any other albums like Rossz Csillag Alatt Szuletett where it's IDM combined with a jazzy, orchestral sound?
Anyone got any IDM recs that aren't the usual Warp dudes?
Squarepusher doesn't deserve to be named among the others t b h

What the fuck is it then? Incredible Dumbshit Music?
I thought Aphex Twin was Drum&Bass and ambient/drone music, but HEY, take the fucking bycicle.
This is wrong in a few spots.

It's not like they have any bad albums though.
I agree. I'd rather put VSnares or even u-ziq in his place.
Intelligent Dance Music, is the name of the genre. It doesn't really describe what IDM actually is very well, but that's what has become the name of the genre. Also, google is really fucking hard apparently.
Experimental beat oriented electronic music fucktard
>I agree.
you are thinking of BoC. Squarepusher is great. BoC is boring downtempo drek
muh analog
grow up

IDM stands for Intelligent Dance Music. It sounds very pretentious because it is. Before, the subject of the thread would be "/IDM/ - Intelligent Dance Music General" but people just kept arguing about what it should be called. So I made it a but more ambiguous.
I don't care what it's called, I just like the music.
I agree with this too. Ideally, for me, it's
>Autechre
>Aphex Twin
>Venetian Snares
>The Orb
But I can't really change popular opinion on my own.
you must have never been around vapid BoC fans before. Fucking gushing over that shit like gay babies.
Don't lower the Orb with inclusion next to these wankers
Thoughts on Gridlock? Pick related is my favorite IDM album.
lol...
yeah, they're ace. like trace a lot as well
Anyone?
Is this his best work? I think it's by far his most consistent despite it being so long. It's just cool track after cool track, and doesn't really have any shitters the way his others do.
Murcof is one of my favorites. Not jazzy/breakcore/idm but surt of minimal/classical/idm.
clark is one of the best m8s
sure, if u mean this clark :^)
i forgot the link lol :^(
Ugghh, well to be honest, it's hard for the answer not to be a stretch. As of breakcore/drill and bass related projects, you should probably listen to VSnares Moonglow/This Bitter Earth if you haven't already, it's quite probably his best in that sense. Otherwise, Clonepa is quite the copycat, and dwelves heavily into classical orchestra, which has its merits. I could go on
but I would really recommend simply going with Amon Tobin if you want a satisfying listen between IDM and jazz.
Ae releases and album on average about every 2-3 years. If they don't release something before December, call the police.

This is good
Shame the release is $70+ on discogs
