Cabaret Voltaire ‎– The Covenant, The Sword And The Arm Of The Lord.  loving these reissues to fill some gaps in my CV collection.

 

Dating from 1986, this album by Robert Schroeder is a great one for blowing the dust out of your system. Dynamic range intact, and throbbing sequencers make a happy mix.

This would sit comfortably with Tangerine Dream circa WHITE EAGLE era.

I had that LP back in the day. Dunno what happened to it. I did find the CD eventually, in an op shop in a small Utah town.

Black Light Smoke - Depression Sleeping [2017]

 

 

For anyone that went to the Amon Tobin "Isam" gig a few years ago he's just put the set up on sound cloud as well as a bunch of other older stuff.  Mind blowing evening that one

Amon Tobin got me in to Ninja Tune a long time ago. I still rate him as the best soundscape artist alive. He is yet to be acknowledged in a broad sense but is recognised by those who know.

Some random spins, not as good as Loving loop, which I picked up years ago.

I found a boiler room set on youtube (when I put up the link) from a few years ago and he opens with an epic mix of that track. Haven't played the whole thing yet but it looks really good

Hi All,

 

An album I picked up on Bandcamp last year, Transmitter is done on Analog sequencers, and is very much in the Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze early 70's style.

Intrusion: The Seduction of Silence

https://www.residentadvisor.net/reviews/5821

< Stephen Hitchell's full-length debut under his Intrusion moniker literally picks up where his last full-length—Echospace's 2007 epic The Coldest Season, recorded with partner-in-crime Rod Modell—left off. The massive "Empyrean" that closed The Coldest Season with a floor-friendly journey into dub techno was the album's most overtly Jamaican-sounding and beat-laden track, and the Intrusion sound finds its roots within its blueprint.

If The Coldest Season's was an updated take on Basic Channel's glacial soundscapes, then The Seduction of Silence sees Hitchell bringing the more explicitly reggae-influenced sounds of Rhythm and Sound into the present—including two cuts (one a chilled dub mix of the other) with the honeyed vocals of Paul St. Hilaire (AKA Tikiman). The Caribbean lilt present throughout the album (last year's mighty "Tswana Dub" single, included here, and the two cuts with St. Hilaire being the standout examples) lends a unified air to the proceedings. Hitchell slowly but surely increases the pace and intensity of the tracks from the opener "Montego Bay" through to the shuddering, staggering "Intrusion Dub" before pulling back on the reins with the slinky, sexy "Seduction" and then alternates between the deadly intense and dead mellow on the album's back half before finally concluding with the sparkling ambient coda of "Under the Ocean."

Hitchell's solo work is far more rhythmically adventurous and danceable than most Echospace material. The delayed and doctored analog pulses (no sequencers here, thanks) are adorned with a smattering of congas and other percussion, as well as a standard deep bass drum stomp and Studio 1-inspired bass lines. Make no mistake—the album doesn't sound explicitly like King Tubby; it's more like his ghost is haunting your favorite Maurizio sides.

Beyond the phased and echoed chords and analog atmospherics, though, there is a palpable sense of spirituality present here that distinguishes The Seduction of Silence from most other dub techno, which has a tendency to be cold and metallic. There's a warm, celestial quality in the melodies here that looks skyward, and St. Hilaire's cuts provide the perfect bookends to the album; the dubbed-out "Angel Version" is track two, while the full vocal version "Little Angel" comes second to last. The lovestruck, inspirational lyrics and St. Hilaire's soothing tones go a long way toward lending a definitive voice to the album that travels beyond mere vocals into a deeper meaning that transcends the ten tracks.

Though individual highlights abound on The Seduction of Silence, the album works best when taken as a whole, an endorsement of Hitchell's vision for an expertly paced and executed album that raises the bar on the dub techno game to stratospheric levels. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better winter warmer than this; remember it with warm thoughts when winter returns later this year, when it's time for year-end polls.

Low Five is a classic track. I'm sure it would sound brilliant on vinyl.

Kl(aüs) - Kl(aüs) -- in which a couple of Aussie lads decide that Berlin School is the answer. And with a name like "Kl(aüs)" that's not much of a surprise (I assume the moniker refers to a certain Mr Schulze, and the "aüs" bit refers to Straya). Although this is much more in the style of late 70's - early 80s Tangerine Dream. 4 quid for the lossless download from Bandcamp.

 

Check out this soundcloud for more overtly TD style shiz (kinda like Hyperborea to my ears)
