Archived entries for Minimal
Chameleon
Was listening to Trentemøller today again. I must admit he is my favourite minimal electronic music producer for now. And one of the best remixers, at least from those I know. I love the massiveness of his music, the raw and rugged sounds, the deep bass and powerful atmosphere. Listening to Chameleon got me thinking about all this, so I want to share it with You as well.
Note -- decent sound system needed (good headphones at least) to experience this music properly.
Dark Side of My Room
Very nice, minimal and darkish track Dark Side of My Room by Extrawelt. Yet again I’ve been taken to another world by music. Just listen to the ambience at the beginning of the track -- wait for it, wait for it and… On 1:30 the dark side kicks in.
Click on the song title above to check out other songs on the album. There are some really good tracks in it. I enjoyed the Messy Machinery, Added Planet (reminds me of Way Out West compositions from late nineties) and Daten Raten as well. Perfect, minimal, nippy german techno.
Fengwali
Overwhelming techno/minimal track Fengwali from UK talent Richard Seeley. Sound of it reminds me of something very primitive, natural, somehow even tribal, yet it’s an electronic music composition created just recently. Makes me think about the true role of music.
Listening to this track takes me somewhere deep down, below everything; puts me in to another silent, massive and yet inviting dimension where all you want is this track to continue in order to dive deeper and deeper in to the calm, rhythmic abyss of transcendence. Magnificent and hypnotic stuff.
Certain Things Around You
Peaceful, deep and dreamy house track for a rainy evening. Certain Things Around You (Part 2 Mix) by Minilogue. Yes, the organ sample is from Radiohead.
Chordal / Law Of Return
Very, very, very groovy and majestic tracks by Peter Kruder from his Chordal / Law Of Return 12″. Full of sounds and atmosphere, they’re mystic and overwhelming. Beautiful minimal/deep house, perfect in my understanding.
Hitchhiker’s Choice
Minilogue’s tune Hitchhiker’s Choice. I adore the video and love the music.
Update: video made by Varelsen.
