I sometimes wonder what EDM act Todd Terje's been up to too.

the tuss was Richard D. James's last nom de guerre so he'll probly be along in another 5 years or so with a new one

Todd Terje... ah yes last time i heard something from him was inspector norse, it was... ok.

glad we are on the same page, "révérend".

The Bug's supposedly coming out with a new album this year but someone trolled him on twitter so who knows.

listening to a stewart price project called tracques on youtube right now. click track is not too bad.

JLC has also co-written/produced the new Pet Shop Boys album, there's a thread abt it

was conceived as hardcore bangers follow-up to PSB's album of mature reflection songs last year, but Tennant's now suggesting it could be first of a trilogy

most of the ppl on yr list are just trundling along making tracks and albums and touring tbh, a few have vanished, ~musical careers~ don't you know

morgan geist has mostly been doing remixes afaict

Anu from Freeform Five was making music for adverts for a while, I think, but he's back remixing and recording under the old name. iirc, there was supposed to be a new single with Roisin Murphy but I'm not sure whether it ever came out.

he was doing adverts before the band too iirc, ie it's his day job and the band was a spin-off

like 1980s EDM stars The Beatmasters

hip-house was their invention

re: Soft Pink Truth- Matmos just put out a new album a few months ago, and Drew mentioned a new SPT album in the works in an interview with (iirc) Fact.

& he finally finished his book!

it's true, I've mixed like four of the seven songs that will be the next soft pink truth album, and I'm playing live for the first time in many years at this event:
