Bedroom Techno

[DLaurent]

Are you gonna do a mix DLaurent?

Don't have decks anymore. 2000 records in storage and most of them Drum and Bass, which I don't listen to anymore. Other than being a techno raver, I only learn about the tracks from youtube these days.

Yeah definitely. Parasight is a track of all time.

Right is this track called Parasight (I thought it was) or is that the B side (that’s what everyone else thinks)?

This one.


Basically a booming bassline with psych arpeggios over the top.

This one is nice enough in the first half, calms the soundless thudding in your ears at 7am and it should soon dissolve you into sleep... then it starts Morse coding something very important and you're pulled back into the room, but you don't mind.

Much of this is too "clean" or spacey, synth sounding to me, but some of the stuff is hard not to love:

 

[linee]

dusty > spacey

 

[thirdform]

not sure I get the "bedroom" tag, to me that implies super homemade lo-fi sounding. most of this sounds like is IDM, maybe with a splash of the early Detroit techno.

yer i think of bedroom techno as weirdo russian nerd bandcamp stuff. there's a bit of that starting to emerge.
or like:

one for Benny B.

I assume you've checked out the Gost Zvuk stuff: flaty, OL, buttechno, lapti, nocow, etc.

The big appeal of this is that it's kitsch and dated in a pleasing way. The charming Utopianism of a vanished world. Like the robots from 1950s movies. Or Victorian proto Sci Fi. It's impossible to take it seriously but it's also got that sadness that's attached to superseded or cancelled dreams

So very much of a piece with this

Timeless. New Age Stasis. Space lagoon. Peace Frog. A Touch of Heaven.

Lulled to sleep. Blue vapours. Deep pool. Sea of tranquility. Lakes of Venus. Calm seas. Cryogenic sleep. Green forest.
