    Lo fi house

    It's terrible for sure. Some notable exceptions like Lawrence (Dial), and of course every single record by Thomas Brinkmann

    Lo fi house

    Yeah we are totally on the same path here. I thought the early 10 or so Kompakt releases were refreshing. Techno needed a 'soft', metrosexual reboot after the hideous bro-style techno that was end 90s UK Mills/Surgeon copycats. Then it went almost progressive house. Hard for me to stomach having...

    Lo fi house

    I don't exactly know what you mean, but as I quite dislike "proper music" I take it as a good thing

    Lo fi house

    Love STL, a real auteur. I think he's old, not on any social media stuff or anything like that. Proper German techskepticism. Bought lots of this back when it broke (10 years ago almost?), some still holds up. My favorite is Huerco S; maybe not really house, but proper scuffy moody lofi vibes:

    this is real

    That's correct, there's a distinct UK thing there (perhaps the only real Gabber is Dutch) But I have to chime and claim that commercial sounding silly gabber do exist, as this guy proves: Everything ever this guy did was stellar (he did the best 2 Napalm releases as well)

    this is real

    I remember religiously reading German techno zine Frontpage in the 90s. Their reviews was often of the same type. 2 lines max, wildly subjective.

    Ballardian architecture thread

    Apparently they will begin developing this year. Madness. But maybe this is how to deal with the urban sprawl problem. I'd preferred erecting city walls again, but that proposal seems like a lost cause in European cities. The layered layout, however, is just another iteration of the failed...

    The Elon Musk Thread

    I believe he is pro "family values".

    Probably just fooling around. But Ariel Pink will always be a genius to my ears.

    Afrohouse

    Generally, probably correct especially in today's preset-environment where a fully formed house track easily comes pre-packaged. Though increasingly the raw stuff often sounds generic in its own way as well. Then there's stuff like Luomo which both has impeccable production and still are quite...

    "I'm trad, dad!"

    this guy probably a reasonable influence on (neo-)traditionalist sentiments

    "I'm trad, dad!"

    Isn't he a Swede living in Japan? Japan, of course, being one of the most racist of places on the planet.

    Wuhan Killer Sneeze (thanks Tea)

    What I don't understand is why all the right wing libertarian types didn't foresee the rapid development of the (mRNA) vaccines. They often seem to be pretty "science will solve it all, just you wait", but nobody thought that could happen within a year. Which is weird as Moderna apparantly made...
