Re-listening to that 'Music Of Cosmos' collection must have spurred on a realization that, hey, I ought to actually start checking out some of those #70s#Synth wizards included. And what better place to begin that with a record aptly titled 'Kosmos'? #ElectronicMusic#ModernClassical#Ambient
Go with Metaphysical Shitposting if you like to float on waves of noisy ambient drone spiked with occasional #experimental#ModularSynth#soundscape freakout ; stick with Psychedelic Ghost Stories if you prefer a little more structure to your wizard #synth anthems and weed accompaniment.
This morning I glanced at a list of albums Brooklyn Vegan posted about for 2024 records so far this year, and there's a new FOUR TET record from March I feel like I would've missed had I not seen it there-- I hadn't heard about it.
Four Tet is of course Kieran Hebden from London and is some wild, weird and beautiful electronic stuff. There's some great synth and ambient sounds (and beats!) on this one.
'Three' will most likely be among my favorite albums of 2024.
@jake4480 I once interviewed Kieran Hebden for a magazine and I am sad to say he was a knob. It was almost 20 years ago though so hopefully he is nicer now. He also have a guy I used to be mates with bass guitar lessons, wait, or was that Squarepusher? Ah fuck knows, lol. One of them anyway.
GARY NUMAN
The Pleasure Principle
1979 Canada pressing
Once I finished listening to the John Foxx record, I had to put this on.
Gary & John are two artists that are forever entwined for me.
The Pleasure Principle is one of the greatest albums of all time, regardless of genre or era, and NO I did not stutter.
Without Gary (and John as well), it’s hard to imagine a world that has Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, or Depeche Mode.
Just a legendary artist. #vinyl#vinylrecords#synth#newwave#synthpop

You can listen to some Syntrax tracks here (my favorite is King Tut)…
