So I've been real busy, but here's a quick upload of the newest album by the Norwegian electronic music duo known as Röyksopp. Good catchy shit, pick it up.

Venetian Snares - Filth

Filth. This raunchy-titled, abrasive, spastic IDM release is the latest from Canada's Venetian Snares (aka Aaron Funk). If you like noisy break-beat shit, you should check this out. I had previously put up "Rossz Csillag Alatt Született," which is also worth a listen... But these two albums are very different. Though both rely on heavy breakbeats, "Rossz..." uses a lot of strings to create a smoother feel, where as "Filth" is a lot more glitchy and harsh.

Boards of Canada - Geogaddi

Boards of Canada have been around for while and hail from Scotland. They released their first album about 11 years ago and have been pumping out some great stuff ever since. I listened to this shit while studying for almost every major Chemistry exam through college, and it did me no wrong. I listen to "Music Has A Right To Children" the most, but the dudes at Lucid Media already had it covered. I also really enjoy "The Campfire Headspace," but Bad Year Media had that one covered too... So I went with one of the two missing albums, Geogaddi. It's sandwiched between those other two releases and has a slightly darker feel than "Music Has A Right To Children," but just as spacy, sometimes drony, and always provides a perfect soundtrack to riding your bike at night. It is also 66:06 long (or it should be if it weren't ripped and you kept the breaks between songs in there). Anyways, check it out and I'm sure I'll geat around to uploading the "Trans Canadian Highway" EP from 2006 in the near future.

Jel - Soft Money

Here we have Jel's (I think) second solo album. I'm sure I'll get around to uploading his previous release, "10 Seconds," in the next few weeks, but I wanted to start with this one because I think most people would find it more palatable. He's done some great production work for groups like Themselves, Subtle, and 13 & God... Though I'm not a particularly big fan of any of those groups. Anyways, it's worth a listen. If you get curious about how he makes beats, check out his shit on Youtube.

Telefon Tel Aviv - Immolate Yourself

Since I didn't introduce them before, Telefon Tel Aviv were two dudes from Chicago that made some great "IDM" electronic music (excuse the redundancy). I'm sure if you're into this stuff at all, you heard that one of them, Charles, passed away. This is their third release. They took a different direction, incorporating the added vocals of the second album and adding some darker tracks. Track 3 sounds like they were listening to a little Depeche Mode. I don't think there will be anything else released under the name, since it would just be a solo project at this point. I'll add the second album later... I still think Fahrenheit Fair Enough is the best.
