Glad to see Tierra Whack is on the new Flying Lotus, which fits “what I will be listening to soon”. Cc @dude

Surprised no one has mentioned the new Flying Lotus record yet! Been enjoying the hour long release since it dropped :slight_smile:

Can you recommend me some stuff to listen then, preferably of the string quartet option, as i am not that familiar with it

This record is incredible. Has a really unique blend of rock instruments that feel very much played live, and auxiliary percussion and synth sounds that make it into a really wide picture.

Also the synth stuff on this is really interesting. Lots of plucky stuff that sounds like omnichord but hifi and pads that are like weird glassy brass, not like the woozy analog used all the time.

Saw him in Denver six or so months ago, amazing:

RIP Roky. Had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with him many times last decade when his brother brought him to Pittsburgh to ‘rehabilitate’ him. One of the most genuinely warm people I’ve ever met.

i don’t mean to speak out of turn, but you might enjoy some titles on the Another Timbre label - albums by Laurence Crane (chamber works 92-09), Joseph Kudirka (beauty and industry), Morton Feldman (two pianos and piano, violin, viola, cello), Jürg Frey (collection gustave roud, grizzana, early to late), Linda Catlin Smith (drifter, dirt road) … and possibly Magnus Granberg (ist gefallen in den Schnee, nun, es wird nicht weit mehr gehn) … these are all new recordings, however, and many (most?) of them are not string quartets (strictly speaking)

also, patterns in a chromatic field by Morton Feldman (on Tzadik) is lovely

please pardon the hijack response. i’d love to hear from @Zebra on this, as well

Still recovering from Movement 2019 and found a few artists I really enjoyed: Rrao, Abby Echiverri, Mark Van Hoen (who all played amazing ambient sets) and of course lots of techno, my new favs (DJS) being Boo Lean and Rubidium and Orphyx (for live) :exploding_head:
