For three full years now I've been semi-daily posting a music recommendation in a big long thread, but it turns out 300-post threads kinda break Mastodon, so I have to restart the thread every so often

What I'm listening to today: "full version", Z777
A whole lot of synths at once, a kick drum being repitched for melody like the old 808 cowbells, overall a pleasantly overwhelming buzz. What I wrote in my notes was "warm all-enveloping construction sounds, like you just curled up in the middle of the cement mixer and took a nap" and I think that might make it sound white-noise-ier than it actually is but that's about how close I can get right now.
What I'm listening to today: "Handpan by Yuki Koshimoto"
The "handpan" is is a variation on the steel pan drum invented in Switzerland in 2000 and rapidly copied worldwide (the original inventors sold it as the "hang drum", but that name's trademarked; this 2011 video uses a Metalsounds Space Drum). Playing by hand rather than with sticks produces a broader range of timbres with a lot of fine control. I find this one, seemingly impromptu performance really beautiful.

What I'm listening to today: "瘋狂的陽光" / "Lunatic Sunbath", Deserts Xuan
I love this artist for a particular track named "Bao Bei" that *tore up* Chinese-language low power FM radio in the Bay Area around 2010. I would be skipping between college radio stations and be like, oh it's that song again! This is a good memory for me. Anyway here's her doing a kinda harder 90s rock thing, Lilith fair with an edge. I like the grungy bassline.

What I'm listening to today: "Atmosphere" (Jerome's Runway Dub), Kerri Chandler
French touch from New Jersey. House music the way it used to sound in 1998. When I dig a little bit I find out Kerri Chandler was a big deal in Jersey electronic music, produced over 100 records, ran a label. I had never heard of him until he came up on a playlist of vintage vinyl rips and I decided to dig a little. The world is an ocean we float atop and it just goes down and down and down

What I'm listening to today: "An Ambient Jam in 31 Tone Equal Temperament", The Creepy Silence
Western music is based on 12 tones, equally-spaced (on a logarithmic scale), which happen to come very close to "good-sounding" pitch ratios. There are some historical attempts at numbers other than 12.
Here, a launchpad rigged for 31-TET is used to perform 15 minutes of messy, engrossing, exploratory astral disembodiment music. Music for a power outage on a spaceship

What I'm listening to today: "Scandinavia", Billy Woods, ELUCID and The Alchemist
Woods and ELUCID just dropped an album under the name Armand Hammer and it's INCREDIBLE. Woods and clique have this idiom of slowed-down, format-breaking rap music and it gets better and more refined with each release. Parts of "Mercy" sound like early Portishead, other parts sound like nothing I've ever heard before. There's like 4 tracks on here I wanna link but here's some ominous piano

What I'm listening to today: "07", ebl (video by Sean Redbeard)
This guy's got a YouTube channel where he picks experimental electronic tracks (good selections too) and makes glitchy TouchDesigner animations for them.
This track's cool, a quiet but relentless onslaught of pattering percussion. Somebody left the kick drum faucet on overnight and now the floor's flooded in kick drums. Old Richard Devine/PBO kinda feel maybe? Manages to feel like an oddity in an odd genre

What I'm listening to today: "05 Feed The Fire Pt 2 Master 1", lesserbirdman
Okay so I'm … honestly not sure if you'll be able to listen to this without a Tidal account, but it worked in some tests. This is a catchy, high-energy, slightly spooky, grunge/metal track that exists *only* on Tidal. Not Spotify or any other streaming service, can't buy it from Bandcamp or Apple. No net presence, no Allmusic artist page, nothing on Google. No bio on Tidal. Hapax_legomenon.mp3

What I'm listening to today: "Fuji", Nedaj
brainfog drum & bass oversaturated clipping piano wallslam break silence
This particular cohort of zoomer musicians seems to return a lot to the suggestion of being at an electronica event but at the far end of the room, the music filtered through crappy speakers and the acoustics of a room larger than the event needed. This particular cohort of zoomer musicians makes music that seems shot through with a sense of loneliness

What I'm listening to today: "cem", evadum
Astral-journey ambient on vintage 1980s 4-track pro tape recorder and Nanoloop 2 for Nintendo DS. Ocean waves made out of sawtooths and voices made of saltwater, a beat so slow it feels like something entirely other than a beat. Drags a single feel out for five minutes then abruptly stops, and it is an excellent feel

Bel pezzo di Carlini, tocca dirlo.
Ora, il capitalismo è brutto (direi che da queste parti su questo siamo mediamente d'accordo) ma possiamo parlare ancora di capitalismo in casi del genere?
Tecno-turbocapitalismo oligopolistico? Boh?
Bolle speculative dove determinate società fanno i picciuli con le imprese che seguono il trend senza ottenere un valore reale, come i pischelli che investono in Labubu (solo che forse i pischelli ci guadagnano)

@rresoli che voi sappiate phanpy consente anche di sfruttare le funzionalità di Mastodon glitch-soc? Perché se non si può utilizzare la formattazione avanzata, non ha molto senso che lo implementiamo qui su poliversity.it

@aeva I *vaguely* remember seeing a review of these a long time ago, which had a sort of shocked "labs" segment where they couldn't believe how good it was (particularly at the price) but I wasn't in the market at the time

@uriel aggiungo una postilla sulle istanze italiane però: in parte sono anche d'accordo, ma d'altro canto credo che non sia tanto un discorso di derive cattocomuniste, quanto un problema di "linee editoriali" con organizzazioni e struttura, cose che comunque richiedono tempo e lavoro che è complicato spendere su base volontaria (pure se ci si vuole fare due lire tra donazioni e altro, che per me ci sta tutto - salvo pretese di purezza e santità)
