These tracks are all created using the same very simple methods - loops created or uploaded and manipulated (copied and pasted) in order to create a flowing piece in a style that builds to climaxes rather than focusses on verse/chorus bridge structures. It's easy peasy, which is why there are so many tunes in this vein.
The sequencing methods used are exactly those used in TMK, even if the hard work is now done by a computer.
Given that 43 years have elapsed since TMK, you'd expect the music to have evolved a bit - but essentially, it hasn't, which is why TMK still sounds fresh in its own way, and the 1980s pieces sound terribly dated, while the 1990s pieces sound of their time.
None of these are strictly what I'd call electronica though - there are too many samples of people playing instruments, and not enough electronically manipulated sounds. Subtle but important difference I feel.
Now Autechre are electronica...  |
i would understand if it was robert miles i put up who has alot of piano pieces.
still electronica, but a s
hitload of intrumentals
I cant agree to what you have said that they arnt electronica, they were influenced by the acid house movement, which was from the late 80's. the first video i posted is
gabber which is dutch ofcourse. the second video is
house. thrid ones
hardstyle/gabber. fourth ones
trance. if you read they links, they all say that its electronica genre music. the tracks were created by 'turntables' which most dj's use. its not some pcdj music, (remember teem techno?) it takes effort and hardwork and research of the movement. or we would all be dj's if it were that easy
