it has been a fallow year for things that take your breath away.
i got quite dubstepped out by september but the hyperdub axis did it for me.
been getting back into hip hop, donuts, count bass d, kidtronic, hyphy, clipse mixtapes, flying lotus, lots of older stuff i missed out on when i was swearing blind it was over for hip hop.
been getting back into jazz too, esp fusiony electronicish stuff.
and been getting into krautrockish bits and tangerine dreamy axis, african stuff, i don't know much about.
dance wise i enjoyed villalobos 2 new ones alot, mymy's album, clark's album, a womans scent remix by drexciyan bloke, for dan by the rice twins, that carl craig delia and gavin thing. dmz and shackleton, breakage, suburban knights hi monster, dave adju, jesse somfay, tadd mullinx and friends twisted knackerd acid excurisons, sahko reissues, secret mommy, john tejada's superb single on scape, some other stuff.
weirdnoiserockstuff i liked was
the excellent all versus all by wasteland, the excellent dekorder label esp kuupu and john hegre, the yeah yeah yeahs album, mainly cos the singer sounds like a dog on heat, trencher's ugliness, the ghostbox crew, the great scatter album, a mountain announces, parouvarjou's yaa hamara, new york noise 4, boris and sunn's collaboration. the broadcast comp, grizzly bear
dancehall wise just really ding dong, busy signal, baby cham, except his horrible gay bashing sleng teng version.
mainly been watching more films, and loving it,on dvd more or less, trying to read books and failing, which makes me sad, being more stressed out and worried letting work take over more, trying to do more exercise, the two highlights of the year have been going to new york and brussells and finally getting the flat to ourselves and not having a lodger no more.
low lights are the shit on television all the time, tiredness, madness ,and work and the enormous amount of shit you have to ignore on a daily basis just to do what you need to do, lack of money and people expecting you to do things whilst denying you the tools to do them, the infinite stupidity of bureaucracy and people who say they'll do things and then spend more energy avoiding doing them, even if you pay them to do them, and other con artists, people constantly applauding those who maintain reactionary culture or do nothing to deserve it, whilst they spend more money on their credit cards trying to mimic them. The fact that religion seems to mean so much this year to people. These things will change though i feel it in my seaweed.
i really want to hear newsoms record.
