Read MoreEarly electronic sound: art or music?
So, it came up last night that I could teach a contemporary electronic music course (since I’m such a huge nerd!). This thought has been running through my mind all morning: what subjects to cover, evolution, technology, themes extending beyond the genres, etc If you are familiar with the history of electronic music, many place […]
Read MorePlaymobilhead – minimal/idm/electronic
Just discovered this artist on soundcloud today, subsequently listened to all of her stuff. A nice variety of stuff with high production values, more towards the chill and spaciously reverbed stuff with just enough glitch and edge to keep it interesting.

But, soundcloud has that myspace […]
Read MoreIs Brostep’s jumping the shark moment framed with flurry of feathers and dancing teddy bears.
Okay, if you follow electronic rhetoric you’ve probably heard all the whining of how mainstream it’s become over the last few years. It’s gotten to the point where I cannot help but distinguish the mainstream stuff as BROstep so as to not tarnish the creativity and history of what Dubstep is about. As jaded as […]
Read MoreWhere’s the line between creative use and stealing in electronic music?
I can pull a hand full of records from my shelf that I’ve found the exact synth preset or noise generator in Reaktor. Sampling is everywhere, it’s sometimes hard to know whether something you recognize in a new track was original the first time around… Picasso said “Bad artists copy. Good artists steal” And the […]
