Infirm Individual – Spiritual Blackout (2014)
/Electronic pop, New Age,
Hip-hop, Futurist pop, Synth pop, New Wave, Space pop, Synth fusion/
Comment: Infirm Individual`s album Agoraphobia was one of the most eminent
issues in 2014 at least regarding Recent Music Heroes blog. Although it was
deliberately eclectic it constituted an organic whole involving disparate
elements from black metal and cybergrind to more mellow synth pop and easy
listening slivers. In fact, Spiritual
Blackout comes out of the same year, though providing a little different
accents and flavours. Undoubtedly it is a great 4-track release drawing
aesthetically influences from spaced-out glamorous synth rock/electro pop
rock/fusion bands (Space, Ganymed, Zodiac) from the end of 70s and the first
half of 80s in Continental Europe and even surprisingly blinking the eye to the
hip-hop genre. Yeah, it embraces a shitloads of glisteningly exuberant synth
progressions and drum machine relied thumps and alien-like vocal glimpses
immersed in hyperreality. In a nutshell, probably I am going to add it also to
the best albums issued in 2014. By the way, he recently issued the brand new
one album Neo Tokyo (it
is a self-release similarly to his previous outings).
VA – Movin On (2006)
/Glitchtronica, Experimental
techno, Abstract electronica, Avant-electronica, Improvised music, Minimal
techno/
Comment: although this
miscellany of 14 compositions was released approximately 9 years ago the whole
chimes truly impressive and refreshing today as well. The composition was a
part of the discography of a record label, Minus-N which disseminated the seeds
of experimental electronic music throughout the 00s. As previously said the
result is outstanding because of revealing some best sides regarding
experimental electronic and abstract/minimal techno compartment. Although the
shape of these tracks might be seen as austere, desolate or bleak at the first
glance the more you are ready to immerse in it the wider and warmer the content
will seem to the listener. Indeed, it can be said the result is fairly
appealing (not quite sexually appealing unless you are imagining to have sex
with robots fed by high AC/DC voltage loaded cables). Eventually you can
conclude the result is minimalist rather than somehow disadvantaged. In any
cases, there are represented such artists as Claudia Bonarelli, .at/on,
goem/fdw, The Suffragettes, Shalma, Lod, g_n44f, Motor, Masaya Sasaki, Andrey
Kiritchenko, Pero, Salmon, Muffrare, Jos Smolders. The compilation is mandatory.
iLoveMakonnen – I Love Makonnen EP (2014)
/Hip-hop, R`n`b, Urban
music, Electronic soul, Autotune, Crossover/
Comment: Makonnen Sheran aka iLoveMakonnen`s 7-track issue draws on tectonic-plate bass rhythms, high-pitched swirling synth sounds and the artist`s autotuned vocal deliveries. Stylistically it can be considered an example of urban sound/sound if to generalize. More concretely, it is an organic drift between hip-hop elements, electronic soul music and electronic dance music. The tracks include affective melodies and vocal harmonies which make sense eventually. The artist is helped by many other artists like Metro Boomin, FKi, Dj Spinz, DunDeal, Sonny Digital, and 808 Mafia).
