Team Secret got BTFO'd by a bunch of ruskies

Secret fans on suicide watch :^)

OPN > Ferraro > Arca >= Blunt

soundcloud.com/b-e-b-e-t-u-n-e/ten-songs-for-humanity

new tune

Wtf is with this thread the meme isn't even funny

if memes had to be funny then Sup Forums wouldnt exist

on that note, Blunt's body of work is superior

imo
Ferraro > Blunt = OPN > Arca
all are good tho

Blunt > Ferraro > 0PN > Arca

these guys get it

How is this not considered spam at this point

What are good albums to start with each of these fellas to get a feel for them?
I've only heard Ferraro's proto-vaporwave album

Am I the only one who finds Arca's music really badly mastered

hello 2 years ago

>Ferraro
Far Side Virtual (which you've heard)
>Blunt
The Redeemer
>Lopatin
progress chronologically from Replica to GoD then listen to Rifts and then Dania Shapes if you really want to
there's a good chart of his discography floating around out there
if you like vaporwave try Eccojams
>Arca
for hip hop stuff Stretch 1, for new stuff Mutant

wait shit for Lopatin add Returnal in between GoD and Rifts

OPN:
- Replica

Ferraro:
For his lo-fi stuff I'd listen to
- Night Dolls With Hairspray
For his newer stuff I'd listen to
- Skidrow

Dean Blunt
- The Redeemer
also
- Babyfather - BBF Hosted by DJ Escrow
is worth checking out for some experimental hip hop

Arca
- Stretch 2

opn is played out

every normie knows who he is now

no

this. all of them are past their prime.

still doesnt mean hes not noteworthy or innovative

not blunt

GoD was great you troglodyte

it was half okay. pulled to much from r+7 in terms of how the tracks were composed.

hype williams will always be his apex. he got close with narcissist ii and redemeer but this wanna be badman/grime mc schtick is less successful.

this is objectively wrong. god was a huge success, bbf was great, mutant was great, ferraro just released one of his best tracks yesterday

switch Arca and Blunt

Arca is a hack

that new Babyfather album does suck hard tho

>one

No his BEST track

black metal ruled pretty fucking hard though

OPN>Dean Blunt>James Ferraro>Arca

James>Dan>Dean>faggboi

no timmy hecky?

he's oldschool

too old

this is for the next generation of dank bleep bloopers

correct

why do people shit so much on arca? is it just a meme?

I feel like actress should be added to this list

didn't he retire?

no, holly herndon should though

Ehhh I don't know that it's his BEST track. It's p. good though.

and yet none of them have topped aphex twin

she's done two albums, neither of which are particularly interesting
I think she might do something fantastic in the future though

Lopatin has
RDJ isn't even the best of the 'big 4'

IA, she has major potential. Also her live show is great.

>Lopatin has

he's at the very least matched RDJ's best work
fite me

bruno mars > mac demarco > eddie murphy > filthy frank

agreed

lol you gotta be kidding

nope

OPN > Blunt > Arca > Ferraro

this is nice

Nicolas Jaar is more important than any of those save OPN. I haven't listened to Pomegranates so don't bother telling me if that's good or not, on the strength of his Remixes alone Jaar beats out Ferraro

Arca's just getting started and Ferraro's been around forever and he released a lot of garbage, honestly I'm pleasantly surprised he had a breakthrough record because there's a lot to sift through otherwise

jaar has nothing to do with any of these. now go back to your p4k approved hellhole

>OPN
>Arca
>not totally P4K approved
stop acting elitist

t. American

what he said

OPN and Arca have both scored BNM on p4k
Are you trying to say it's not weird enough to qualify or something?

Jaar does straight up dance music most of the time. How's he related to any of the artist in the OP at all?

fuck off

I don't think Jaar is related to the artists in the OP - was mostly just replying to that insipid and myopic P4k comment.

but he's a p4k approved babby. he made his career out of that 9.x review they gave him

>Nicolas jaar being better than anyone else and even more ferraro who is the best out of these four artists
holy shit turbopleb please stop posting.

um, no. you obviously don't follow dance music.

But I do. He's an above average producer that was turned into "important" figure because he makes "elegant" dance music and has a pretty face. This is the type of dance producers p4k offers patronage. He isn't leading any of the fields he dabbles in.

ferraro is like the sun city girls of electronic music. and I like sun city girls but that's not a compliment

of course you do, they're hacks just like jaar. ferraro has nothing to do with any of them

like i said already please stop posting youre just embarrassing yourself

pitchfork didn't make his career - he'd been hyped over at ra and xlr8r and fact and other dance music publications since 2008. if anything his bbc essentials mix got him tons of exposure. by the time he got that 9+ in 2013 he was already a pretty big name in the dance scene.

i'm honestly not even a big fan of his (i find him a little safe and boring) but saying p4k gave him his career is simple incorrect.

new Ferraro sounds like Reich

What is the best thing Ferraro has ever done and why is it pic related?

after primavera its the best digital yes but overall even the worst lofi(there no bad) is better.

So what

Agreed. Marble Surf is his best,

OPN > Blunt > Arca > Ferraro

yes

yep

>experimental hip hop
more like post-ironic grime mixtape
the hip hop isn't really anything special, nor does it seem like Dean wanted it to be. (the run from Greezebloc to Motivation is kind of catchy though)
The only tracks where it feels like he actually tried are God Hour, N.A.Z, Deep and Snm, and those are barely hip-hop.
