What I'm listening to today: "Choralberg", Alex Siebenhaar

In this video, a man wearing a bluescreen for a hat sits on a carpet and steers some racks of synths (and one analog drum machine) through a cryptic, funky melody. Just as you think you understand where it's going, it ends; you find yourself wanting more.

What I'm listening to today: "crisping.1 #‍lofi #‍ambient #‍chaseblissgenerationlossmk2 #‍glitch", [moos]

It's not very hard to reproduce Boards of Canada's style, especially not since cassette equipment became a common modular synth add-on. But this piece, based around that guitar pedal that fakes tape degradation, is special, mixing tattered synth pads with a death-march beat that refuses to find a rhythm. It's scary actually, like something's gone horribly wrong.
