Glitch techno

[teknorich]

Been listening to lots of minimal techno in the last couple of years, but been getting more into the Glitchy sound recently. Still minimal, but not as chilled and dubby, more rough, chunky, weird. Been listening to people like Magda, some Matthew Dear sets (though not all as he can get quite jazzy), some stuff on Shitkatapult. Anyone recommend some names for me to hunt mixes?? Want weird, glitchy, distorted techno, but still 4 to the floor, not wonky. Any Magda soundalikes that I should check out??

if i'm understanding what your after correctly, the label 4x4 has some good stuff on there

[dirty_bass]

4x4 is most definitely not glitch techno
hmmm I know what you mean, but I am looking for the same thing myself

try BPitch/Kompact/Force Tracks for this type of stuff.

4x4x13 clanging was the track i was thinking of.

is there any examples of glitch techno i could listen to?

[jonnyspeed]

You mind find alot of what you are looking for in the wonkier labels. Alot of Neue Hiemat has 4/4 releases. Mark Hawkins in very interesting stuff. You also might like the stuff on 4x4 - there are generally 4 styles = funky, clanky, hard and deep.

[jonnyspeed]

here's a good start. Wanna tell us which releases on Shitkatapult you liked? - as its a pretty varied label it might give us more of a clue :lol:

Shitkatapult catalogue at Music-Head.de (http://www.music-head.de/catalog/platten_gefunden.filter-alle2.sort1-artist.sort2-titel.eq_label-Shitkatapult.html)

rock on!

Perlon, Areal, lots o stuff. You might want to look up Villalobos's mix cds and scan the tracklists, good place to start. Stuff coming out on Minus soon as well. Mathew Jonson is another. also peep the tracklist from hawtin's march 10 '04 peel session.

you heard much thomas brinkmann stuff? you might like it, check out basic channel aswell and stewart walker, might not be what you are looking for but worth a try.

[teknorich]

Basic Channel/Maurizio etc is too dubby/gentle for me. I've got a few things from the Force Inc label, Klang etc. Tracks like "Tod eines Hippie Maedchens" by Reinhard Voigt are just superb.
You're right with some Villalobos stuff; he can get too jazzy sometimes, but when he gets glitchy/clicky it's superb (I love his remix of "Kiss tomorrow Goodbye" by Auch).
Just downloaded the Daniel bell album last night, and some of that is wicked. Really minimal, literally just beats and beeps. Good stuff!

[teknorich]

Am also liking "Shufflephunk" by Hawtin, though it's a bit lightweight.

[serox]

i thought this was 'bleepy' techno ?:) or 'wobbly techno'

[teknorich]

Hmm... you may be right. (This whole pidgeonhole thing leaves me muddled!)

Basically, I understood Glitch as minimal techno, but dirty, ****ed up, bleepy and weird. Magda style!!

Basic Channel etc is minimal, but all very smooth, pleasant almost easy-listening. I'm looking for a rougher, weirder, nastier version!!!

[serox]

need mp3 examples i think, so many names for techno now is just silly:)

i like the records that go boom boom boom

[teknorich]

No mate, I'm not with you at all. I much prefer the ones that go

"bang bang grr bang bang click click....."

Am limited by technology, so you'll just have to imagine your own samples!

there are so many labels, but this country is just so far behind europe on textures like this. its embaressing.

to quote the inner cover of the seminal artificial intelligence compilation on warp records

'its not all thump thump nose bleed!'

[teknorich]

Tony, thank you.

[serox]

only trying to help. Dunno what glitch is then. sorry!

[Tony]

sorry dude, had pondered that you may have thought i was being rude to you, not the case at all :-)

its poss that that track you mentioned could fit in, but i think i've hit the nail on the head for the chap.
nice one for contributing :-)

[jonnyspeed]

no worries - not offended. Actually, with a touch of research, I'm a fan of techno on a raw glitch trip. b'in looking for such tunes myself - and never new it. German stuff has always been somewhere I've not really explored, until this year, simply because I find most schranz dull, badly produced and predictable - not all but most (only my opinion)

Sativae and Neue Heimat have jumped from zero to hero, and really seem to be going down well when I play out - so I'm hungry for new interesting tunes - especially ones with programming rather than just a single loops with simple changed to filters and rides = which my 5yo niece can knock up on her bontempi.

Man, what the fudge am I on about?

Dunno mate, booth Sativae and Neue Heimat have ALWAYS been top labels, they haven't suddenly started doing anything different - just top class experimental techno.

[jonnyspeed]

no I mean't zero-to-hero in my record box - wasn't a reference to bad-to-good quality of the label. :oops:
