If only I was at home I could give you some Ryoki Ikeda plots.

Come on, let's have some frequency profiles...

That's Interference 003.

― struttin' with some barbecue (jimnaseum), Thursday, 5 October 2006 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

Yay!

(Bit of a L/R imbalance though, eh?)

Fuck me is that real? What the bloody hell does it sound like?

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 5 October 2006 14:26 (nineteen years ago)

You need this record in your life, Nick.

Actually, so do I - I was a bit of a Mille Plateaux fan back in the day but never did pick that one up.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 5 October 2006 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

There should be a preview of it on Beatport.com as I believe that's where I bought it from.

― struttin' with some barbecue (jimnaseum), Thursday, 5 October 2006 14:31 (nineteen years ago)

Ryoji Ikeda is a listed artist at Beatport but no tracks are available :(

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 5 October 2006 15:19 (nineteen years ago)

Hmm, they had that Modulations and transformations and now they don't. Bah.

― struttin' with some barbecue (jimnaseum), Thursday, 5 October 2006 15:22 (nineteen years ago)

Bleep have Ikeda's Dataplex (which I might buy if it ever shows up cheap in Fopp), but it's not quite the same thing. Certainly the waveforms are a little more conventional :)

Richard James used Metasynth to do that, didn't he?

(xpost; what's that, then?)

Dubstep compendium. One track from Skream, one from Vex'd and one from Shackleton. See if you can guess which is which :) Or alternatively, you know, just check the file names.

Nothing so radical as some of those above, but burial's fishbones are perhaps interesting in light of http://blackdownsoundboy.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_blackdownsoundboy_archive.html#114298266029581805

the final 10 milliseconds of Shiina Ringo's "Souretsu", final track on her album Chlorine, Semen, Chestnut Flower

― milton parker (Jon L), Thursday, 5 October 2006 20:52 (nineteen years ago)

a bit of an abrupt depature, don't you think?

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Thursday, 5 October 2006 20:55 (nineteen years ago)

only way to end that album is to stop

Like the richard d james image/wavelength, Venetian Snares and Plaid have done things with the same program, with an image of a cat, and the not for three's design, respectively.

Wot no spectrograms (except the Aphex Twin one)? They're way purdier:
