way U make me feel

he is my beatiful complicationnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

i <3 guido - imo he should be receiving all the plaudits that joy orbison is atm, and i think he's easily the best of the dubstep-not-dubstep lot these days. "way u make me feel" and "orchestral lab" are beautiful.

everything i've heard from dude sounds bland at first blush, then halfway through the development wows me and then it's ten repeats later and I don't want to listen to anything else all day.
And that's December 20 and 21 for you.

Search "cat in the window" too!

artist or another song by him?

another song!

c also joker + 2000f & JKamata

ah, i actually know and like that song; just slipped my mind.
joker is another dude who's just as good.

man, this whole youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=FE7A9BCFF40A0887

also, was it just me that blanked or was there not talk/<3 4 Darkstar on ILM this year? Aidy's Girl is sweet but I didn't bother listening to it until a couple days ago reading the RA year end

tell me more?

sweet

morodery non-dubstep that gets all HAL-from-2001

from the hyperdub 5 year thing which you wld prolly like

oho, yeah that's great too!
I'm mostly discovering all this thanks to one great mix i got from a singles jukebox cat in the UK. I love this post-dubstep/idm sound or whatever the heck it's supposed to be.

also Ikonika

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvpgiiotL0U

Okay are you the guy who sent me that mix? Cuz it's got all these on it.

hahahaha! i know what you mean tho man, im starting to feel like the secret to the riddle is that dubstep doesn't really exist because everything that I hear that I like that is "dubstep" turns out to be "not really dubstep" to the point where I'm leaving Rinse.fm on all the time in the hopes of hearing this elusive bird we call dubstep. A huge portion of my favourite releases this year, even ones that were DEFINITELY NOT DUBSTEP had a whiff of a dubstep vibe abt them or used that word in their press releases (basic channel guy's remix of that tortoise track, the xx, moderat) and also shit like shackleton, joker, ikonika. I don't really buy the "its the mainstreamification" angle because hey that was 2006 and uk funky is the hip name to drop now, but it feels like for such a buzzy word right now, the actual dubstep is hard to find and you have to be "in the know" maybe?

maybe this could be the "fake dubstep for douchebags who don't know what it is" thread

me: the guy from the xx does pretty cool remixes, kinda dubsteppy
friend: what exactly is dubstep anyway?
me: i don't really know

ha, in america we don't even know enough to front that we don't know!
i just love this sound right now.

check out his FACT mix. it's wicked.

Gemmy is the third guy in the trio with Joker and Guido (Apparently they're supposed to be collaborating on a record at some point). He's not quite at the others level yet but definitely worth keeping an eye on.

fully obsessing over Guido "Way U Make Me Feel" right now!! Its great!!

All this stuff is way better than dubstep proper but Guido is rivalling Joker to be the best of the lot. Hope there are lots of vocalists on both their albums, preferably ones we've never heard of. Really love Way U Make Me Feel, Beautiful Complication is very good as well but sounds better sped up in the mix.

Guido's FACT mixes from December and another one from earlier this year are both incredible.

maybe this could be the "fake dubstep for douchebags who don't know what it is" thread

Makes sense. Since there's a load of great stuff by other similar artists linked on here, and we're going to be hearing a lot of these dudes over the coming year, I've retitled the thread. Also it means we won't have to keep reviving a thread with 'Wonky' in the title.

lol

a few recent/overlooked ones...subeena in particular needs a TON more attention. she's just started up her own label and her imminent "picture"/"spectrum" 12" is incredible.

my old band was called guido. this thread is confusing. I might sue.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auv1gIn3V3c

So is this dubstep? And is anyone discussing it in the UK, cuz it gets no US love yet that i know of.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH2QP18wRus
very four-tet-ty

he was on the sound of bbc list this year and aren't pitchfork in love w/ him? in any case, yeah

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD-48WUGMY4

and u should check out his rmx of bliss out by lemonade which is awesome (orig is a pile of ass tho)

don't know how ur getting four tet from this tho?

xp i don't keep up with pitchfork except by proxy, but this is nice!
so is it dubstep?

shrug, sounds like four tet to my ears... maybe it's just me?

I really don't like this sound...I'm sorry, but I do. What is the point of this music? It's just like...pleasant.

what's wrong with pleasant?

Ronan what do you think of this?

Think on this thread so far we're going a bit heavy on the chimy IDM side and not enough of the nasty bass-heavy videogame side.

I know that tune...I sort of like it but like with a lot of music like that I keep waiting for a rapper to come in.

gold panda is british chillwave imo

I'm not sure how much mileage we'll get out of being exclusionary on this thread, given that the gap between Darkstar and Joker is fucking huge, but then again I get the feeling that whether they fit in is less an issue of music and more one of whether they go to the pub with one another. FWIW I like Gold Panda but he fits better with Four Tet and people than here.

i dunno i was surprised he was british. id lump him more with like neon indian or something

this from 1992 i think reminds me of the indie-er gold panda end of this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFNFDPpkTJs

buffalo stance beats!

oh man i'm really excited for this. haven't heard anything since orchestral lab/wummf

this is the only track i have of an mc trying to rap over a joker beat, durrty goodz. dunno if there are any more

I've got a version of Tempah T over Gullybrook Lane. It's a bit shit though, because, well, it's Tempah T.

Also why is Chakra not on the Guido album? It's amazing and I really want a proper version of it.

The new Booka Shade is pretty awesome. "Renegade" is dooooooooope.

Another teaser for the Yolanda track on the album. Pinch feat. Yolanda - Get Up (Guido Mix)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lqfchVqVlc

Better than the Lauren Pritchard mix I think.

this vocal mix of of "way u make me feel" is actually really good

so...everyone needs to have copped the ikonika album now, it's out. this is my absolute favourite on it, it's like being in a shoot 'em up computer game.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB9zPOGsPgw

i kno there was a lot of talk abt how dubsteppy this britney track was a t the time, but it really does sound more like ikonika 2me than anything that was around at the time

Yeah, this is fantastic. "Take Me Higher" is really hitting the spot right now.

I'm fairly impressed with Guido's album, too. However, and I'm surprised given the strength of the productions already, but the "Way U Make Me Feel" vocal version makes me wish the album had more vocals.

Yeah this is gorgeous stuff, he's got a great feel for melody, space and texture. I'd heard almost all of it before through his various mixes, but it's great to have all the individual tracks in one place.

fucking hell "tango"!!!!! this album is amazing

any way to get this in the states? I really wanna listen.

do you have the internet in the states? google? if so you should be all set

(i had no idea about this album being out so soon, whoever's pressing it hasn't deigned to send me a copy)

well i actually wanted to pay for it but anyway

released 24 may, i think?

I really don't like the vocals on the Guido album. Have been loving the rest though, some of the prettiest electronic music I've heard in ages.

the "tron"/"ain't i" mashup on a-trak's new thing is pretty cool

with the exception of somehow skipping young dro's verse

GOD DAMN this thread = #1 piece of evidence of why auto embedding of youtubes on ilx was a probably a really retarded idea -- jeeeeeeeeeesus my computer will barely let me type

okay anyway the guido album is of course lovely lovely lovely -- is joker putting out an album or?

seriously fuck this thread

just turn images off in preferences

Or just bookmark it so you only see new posts as they come up.

i have it bookmarked specifically for that reason but once you post it loads the whole thread

I heard that Joker had deleted a load of stuff he was working on and started again. Now he's a producer that could definitely do with a load of vocalists on his album.

no i dont want to hear any vocalists on his album. hes one producer whose tracks are so well thought out and executed i dont think he even needs them. tron is just perfect.

Love the Guido album you guys. Thanks!

I'm still enjoying this album but I wish he put as much effort into his beats as his melodies, leaves a lot of tracks here sounding half-finished IMO.

I don't entirely disagree with that but this will still likely be a top ten album of the year for me

"cat in the window" is the one song on this that really, really stood out to me

Are people enjoying the Mount Kimbie album? I'm currently checking it out via youtube and I quite like it so far.

it's probably my fave album of the year, easily top 3

Nice! What are the other two? I was doing good earlier in the year with keeping up with new albums, but I'm totally slipping now

probably big boi or badu or lcd, but in this vein, james blake's 'cmyk' ep has really grown on me a lot. and i was super impressed with the baths record on first listen, but haven't felt like going back to it much.

kinda liking cinnamon chasers; are they considered dubstep or chillwave or wtf?

Would anyone object to the coining of the term "sidestep" to refer to post-dubstep music?

If not, I'm coining it now.

http://thesportsclown.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/who-cares.jpg

stepstep

Maybe we could call it doorstep because the studio it's made in has a door?

"sidestep" is good because it advises you to steer clear

+1

that's just the Acid Jazz sweep from 93.

'beautiful compilation' and 'way u make me feel' are so hot, really need to give the album a full listen though

u do!
and he needs to make more music

theres also 'chakra' which is a b-side i think, which is also awesome

the title track's fantastic

well yes i AM very interested in the new joker album and the fact that everyone seems to hate it bodes well as far as i'm concerned

it's not completely horrendous but largely everyone was right

like this year's hyetal album, the new guido is perfectly fine but just suffers from not being a patch on the debut
