Today's compilation:

Likethemes 1995 IDM / Ambient Techno

Dang, man, those fellas at Warp Records really unlocked something special in the early 90s when they and their peers figured out how fucking good it sounded when you took Eno-esque ambient synth textures and paired them with IDM and techno rhythms 🤩. This mid-90s 12-inch here called Likethemes wasn't a Warp release itself, but the small Likemind collective and label that released it still counted some of those Warpers among their very own ranks, like the duo of B12, who appear here as Redcell, and Andy Turner from Black Dog Productions and Plaid, who operates on this release as Tura.

And I know I've made reference to it before, but if you're familiar with the artwork from Warp's own landmark Artificial Intelligence comp—the 1992 album that was responsible for popularizing this whole IDM and ambient/listening techno phenomenon in the first place—this record falls along those same lines; basically, you're gonna be feeling like that totally blissed-out android in the armchair when you put this record on 😌.

I struggle mightily to pick a favorite among this excellent quartet of tunes, though, so the best thing I can say about it is that if you love the earlier days of Warp, before they started signing so many fucking indie bands 😅, there's no way you won't dig the shit out of this Likemind release too. Half an hour of deeply satisfying mid-90s IDM and ambient techno chill, with lush synth backdrops constructed to hit your feels and a cavalcade of rhythms and melodies to get your synapses firing. There's a tendency for the formula that's put on display here to be highly effective, and with this release, specifically, it happens to be enacted at a very elite level. Makes sense then why the average rating on Discogs for this one is so astronomically high at a 4.82/5, because this thing really is damn near spotless 👍.

Highlights:

Redcell - "The Silicon Garden" Stasis - "Monolife (Rebuild)" Tura - "Reishi" Nuron - "Minutes"

Dear listener, if you’ve never heard of Aphex Twin before, cling fast to your genitals. Because, like a 2500-volt shock straight to the testes, you’re going to find this musical entry quite shocking! Before you smash play on the music video above, I will immediately attempt to dissuade you from viewing if 1. You are the faint-of-heart type 2. You have a medical condition that is triggered by strobe lights. I don’t want you to have a series of elaborate seizures. Go figure; you’re my fuckin’ audience. I don’t want to kill my audience on Tumblr just so it’s clear. At least, not this week. For the rest that remain; if you've never seen an AT video before, the time for your distressing and traumatic cult initiation is NOW. Smash play on the track above; it's Come to Daddy from the 1997 album of the same name.

OMFG… this guy is hot AF. I was personally introduced to AT about two decades ago through one of my stoner friends who went to basement raves to dance with glow sticks. At the time, I really didn’t understand what the hell I was listening to. A lot of it just sounded like disorganized and cobbled-together noises. However, my musical tastes have evolved, and in hindsight, I can fully acknowledge that the music of soloist and Ireland-born Richard David James was simply beyond my comprehensive grasp as a young adult. He is and was a true pioneer in the music industry, having the aptitude and talent to bring a brand-new type of music to bloom in the 90’s, that being IDM (intelligent dance music). IDM, by my understanding, is derivative of breakbeat, techno, and acid house… but pushed to the very edge of experimental extremes. It is dance music (you CAN’T dance to a lot of it unless you want to have spasmodic fits, it’s honestly more proper for exercise/home environment listening) that is custom-tailored for a very discerning and clever audience, and I find that a lot of IDM sounds itself like a living, breathing entity. What AT brought to the table was a uniquely charismatic, versatile, and in some cases downright emotionally impacting experience that I cannot in good conscience declare as useless. It is the polar opposite of generic modern melodies, as AT pushed and continues to push the envelope of modern music to its most illogical boundaries. Probably my favorite feature of AT’s overall sound is the asynchronous beats, which, while not in any way traditionally mathematical or ‘correct’ in timing, is a genuine example of that tonic path that Aphex Twin and IDM as a genre have to offer. AT does whatever others are afraid to try, and the overall discography runs the gamut from shy electronic ambient to full-on head-banging badassery. Enjoy, and there will be far more music to come this year!

If you care to pursue the actual emotional range of AT’s music, click just above for one of the most (if not THE most) emotive ambient tunes I’ve absorbed in my lifetime, Rhubarb from Selected Ambient Works Volume II (1994). And if you’re really, really in the mood to traumatize yourself, click here for one of the most disturbing music videos I’ve seen in my lifetime. I wanna make it clear, IF YOU CLICK ON THE IMMEDIATELY PREVIOUS LINK, I am in no way responsible for the mental damage it does to you as a result. YOU... are by your own free will and accord, willingly clicking on the link. I am merely providing you a path, in fact multiple paths, to explore Aphex Twin’s sound further.

Pratchett’s writing is often misunderstood politically because he comes from a sort of white background alien to a lot of North Americans tumblr readers, whose parents and/or grandparents would have been white whitecollar or adjacent workers trying to hitch a ride on the corporate 20thC boom. However thankfully I’m equipped to interpret it because Pratchett’s native ideological ground is Philosophy of My Dad

«Are we alone in the Universe?» — new composition and video-version

Sometimes it seems that - yes - alone. Judge for yourself - scientists have been searching for at least some manifestations of extraterrestrial life (at least life - not even intelligence) for so many years, but so far the result is consistently negative. The Universe is huge, and common sense tells us that if We somehow appeared on one of the countless grains of sand - on this planet, then someone else must appear... But where is he then?!

Let's think about how long people have been looking for their own kind or just extraterrestrial life.

Let's start with the fact that before the beginning of the Renaissance, such searches did not arise in the minds of people. For thousands of years they settled creatures of religious and mystical origin in the heavenly and underground spheres, but to think about the possible existence of some brothers in intelligence - parallel civilizations that may differ from us in some details, but in the hierarchical ladder of universal beings stand at about the same step - this did not occur to them. The picture of the world was human-centric — the Earth was in the Center of the World, and therefore — nothing equal to it, and equal to its inhabitants, had the right to exist in the Universe. And there was not much room for it. The stars were nailed to the firmament, the planets were just huge precious stones — Diamond, Ruby, Amber... (Venus, Mars, Jupiter...) or precious metals (the Moon seemed cast from silver). And where should alternative people live?

The first people known to us to ask such questions were Nicolaus Cusanus and Giordano Bruno. They were practically the same age. How they came up with such ideas — it is impossible to guess now. If someone had similar thoughts before them, then most likely they were unable to convey their ideas and questions to us. But about 500 years ago, the seeds of doubts about our uniqueness and singularity began to sprout on our planet, and along with them, the early shoots of guesses about the infinity of the World in which we live. And infinity hardly allows for the uniqueness of at least something in it. Of course, at first only a few people spoke seriously about this. A wide discussion of the issue of extraterrestrial civilizations arose synchronously with the discovery of pseudo-canals on Mars by the Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli - about 150 years ago. Mars began to be seriously considered as a possible haven for life - similar to ours. But there are probably more than just Earth and Mars in the Universe. Venus was also considered as an option, but hot Mercury - no longer. And distant gas giants - Jupiter and more distant ones - seemed unacceptably cold for the possibility of life existing on them. Whether other planetary systems exist in the Universe - this was unknown until the beginning of the third millennium. In fact, it was only in the 21st century that science was convinced of their existence, when the first planets were discovered in the systems of other stars. And only in the last couple of decades have we known for sure that there are at least suitable places in the Universe for our intelligent brothers. But even this is not certain.

Now tell me: If we have been searching for something — on a civilizational time scale — for about a quarter of a century, do we have the right to lament that we have not yet found it? And we have not really searched for it. And we have no reason to be skeptical. Even serious astronomers are now determined to succeed in this search, although until recently science was dominated by denial. For example, astronomer Vladimir Surdin is convinced that we will discover extraterrestrial life in the current decade, and intelligent extraterrestrial life — by the middle of the century.

Well, all that's left is to live until then, not forgetting that we have many unresolved problems on Earth, because of which intelligent life on our planet, or even life in general, may end.

The musical composition «Are we alone in the Universe?» was written relatively recently. But I didn't show it to anyone for about a year and a half. Then it was included in the annual collection of electronic music dedicated to Cosmonautics Day, and sounded in it as the first track - the opening track of the release.

And now I've finally matured enough to publish this piece for all my friends and subscribers.

Enjoy listening and successful searches for what you are looking for!
