[frankbedbroken]

frankcore 2k25 !!

and if you can believe it. it's a monthly playlist once again. for this first installment (?) this year it mostly falls into three separate blocks: a lot of stuff that passed me by during last year and i didn't get hip to until i checked out a bunch of year-end lists (shouts out billdifferen and vhs midnight style), the few new releases that i got to during this month, and assorted random stuff from previous years.

for the first part: we've got ominous and haunting acappella performance from vocal-centric catalan folk duo tarta relena; an incredibly addicting loosie from lucy bedroque that only recently got put onto streaming services (had it been around by the time my year-end list dropped, i would've definitely gotten a hard time deciding between it and how to pretend to be on said list),; poppy bassline/garage numbers from niko b as well as silva bumpa with megan wroe on vocals; broken, ever changing rhythms and corrosive sound design under the always uncertain umbrella of deconstructed club from ship sket and seychelles; a metalcore number from the band kaonashi with an off-kilter and unique vocal performance but also maintaining the aggression and chaos you'd want out of the genre; and finally, speaking of chaos, mind-numbingly hard stuff from CONNIE, moving from a bouncy, hyperactive, super saturated donk-like rhythm which later on slows things down to a brazilian funk drum pattern and tempo but not letting go in the harshness department, all underlying the hardest tts vocal performance since knife party's internet friends (?).

in terms of new stuff: hazy and disorienting yet compelling and riveting ambient / hypnagogic sounds from voice actor & squu; very solid trip hop revivalism from destroyer (very unfamiliar with his discography, this track's not really representative as i understand but im interested to see what the rest of that album is like); pitch-dark and sombre slowcore from the ever-inspiring ethel cain; delightfully euro pop rap with a l'amour toujours interpolation thrown in for good measure from bassvictim (this track dropped last year technically but the project it's from was released just now); slow-burning and mechanical yet vaguely horny new beat vibes from marie davidson; of course i had to include something from twigs' most recent album, went with a track that feels very in line with ray of light and impossible princess, introducing acid techno influences into a pop format; wonderfully sweet indietronica with some influences of microhouse from baths; light and icy garage rhythms intermingling with hip hop and r&b on the latest from john glacier alongside sampha; turn-of-the-millenium-inspired house-pop crossover from rose gray (featuring an interpolation of blue (da ba dee) as well, i know im a bit hypocritical when it comes to that kinda thing but idk i think the two tracks featured here do it well); a couple of tracks from projects that will be dropping shortly: from mun sing, a track that feels equally as indebted to post-club / uk bass experimentalism as it does pc music and recent developments in pop and r&b; from traxman, no-nonsense footwork that works exactly as well as you'd want it to; and from aya, a track that you could compare to machine girl in its tackling of digital hardcore idioms but that also brings in a lot more influence of deconstructed club sound design as well as more hectic edm influences from hard techno and donk; wrapping up, a track off the most recent pink siifu project, this one having really atmospheric yet danceable production courtesy of the duo hi-tech, in a way reminds me of the more dnb-centric side of artists like machinedrum.

and then: the rest! big trip hop block at the start, with more recent revivalism from buttechno & triš, a bizarrely ahead-of-its-time anomaly that's technically folk and industrial adjacent but sounds just like trip hop in 1977 from emmanuelle parrenin, and languid r&b sounds from chinah, mixing an almost monotone vocal delivery with rhythms influenced by trip hop and minimal drum and bass; later on, probably the most popular track off that model/actriz album, the album itself didn't do as much as i wanted to but i do like this track quite a bit; finally, bedroom-esque screamo with potent vocal delivery filled with rage and angst from awakebutstillinbed.

my one track that i would've liked to include but couldn't because it's not on streaming is left leg out by mala, classic uk dubstep sounds from one of the originators of the sound, very grimy and dingy as you would want from the genre.

that's it for now, tube it!

😂 Well done Halvar 🏆 Now you should write to Jerôme Pesenti, he took the time to reply with great interest to my email about AI and ethics, and he gave me the contact of someone in his team at Facebook/Meta when he was vice president of AI, the Spanish employee never replied, neither Yann the Cunt.

🗯️Some of you in the InfoSec / Cyber / Hacker space are rude and disrespectful to new comers and your peers. You are what we would call “old dogs” in the military. Some of you need to check your overinflated egos and remember you were once a beginner.

🗨️Most of the people I know like this I've found to be lacking in real skill and highly insecure. A real "expert" knows there is always a lot they don't know and newcomers bring a fresh perspective and ask questions that seem simple on the surface but are really not.

🗨️💯 especially with all the constant buzz about worker and skills shortages in cyber, how tf you gonna put people down and not constantly be learning yourself.

Traxman at Powertrip for Now or Never Festival — 1st of September 2023

[violetsystems]

Debo dying really got me thinking about ghetto. You know that the guy who owns gramaphone records and runs the biggest gay house night in Chicago coined the term ghetto house. A white guy by the way and not the people making it. Couldn't sell dirty records and kind of pandered to his classier consumers. You can tell him I said that. I don't give a fuck. He knows exactly who I am because he used to sell my tapes and lived with a guy who worked there prior to when I offered him his first real job after he didn’t file his taxes for years. That guy works for cars dot com now. They all pretend I’m not alive. Speaking of Rashad, Deeon was in Geto DJ'z with Traxman. Rashad was in Ghetto Technicians. Dave Shayman aka Disco D from Detroit who killed himself was one of the pioneers of Ghettotech out there with Assault. Disco D was white like me. Dave stayed at my house in the suburbs and taught me how to scratch. This was in my twenties. When Rashad got together with Traxman to get away from the ghetto, the drugs and the drama? They both created the crew I'm in called Tekk DJ'z. Notice there isn't any ghetto in there at all. They kind of reclaimed it though people used to call us like a bench warmer crew for teklife. Everybody pretty much jumped ship though we're all on a Japanese footwork org chart somewhere. I live in a racially dynamic neighborhood where half the people want to buy up property and turn it into a gated subdivision. While the rest of us pick up their trash. We get treated like second class citizens by people who would rather call the cops than the fbi. Neither of those work for any of us. So we gradually just revert to the power of the streets. Call it strategic ambiguity or what not. But twenty years in music people always want to judge you as irrelevant because you can't get booked for a festival you don't get paid for other than to sell tickets. You can't play a club night that doesn't pay you which is just a glorified open air drug market and popularity contest. But the block is the block. And the hood is the hood. Nobody out there has a right to question how ghetto I've become. And Deeon made people proud to not only be freaks if that was their thing. But he brought attention to the fact that real life is fucked up and there ain't no use in thinking you are better than those that came before you. I've seen a lot of people come and go. And I've taken out their trash and buried it more times than the FBI has thrown away my anonymous tips. When your hood pass gets revoked? Don't come crying to me. Nobody out here got paid by Beyoncé for ghetto house music. I wouldn’t be able to hear you over all this jack anyway. Now if you’ll excuse me I have a vampire facial to attend to. 🩸
