Stalker Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Where is the good old dark minimal/prog? 99% of the new progressive is morning oriented Besides the new Sensient and Serious Porn Collector albums i cant find another artists release in this style. As for comp, there is the Minimal Ritual 1 and 2 by Brain forest recs wich is quite good psychedelic minimal. Especialy Minimal Ritual 2. No more than that so, there are ay comp/labels or new artist i should know? i miss the old dark minimal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAH Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 agreed not much else is coming out these days.... well, Metalogic - Magnetic Influence is kind of interesting... and kind of minimal... but it's also a bit techno-ish.. i suppose ( ) in it's own Bokshe beats way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venetzian Dealers PLATFORM Yummy, ain't it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAH Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 hope it hits the right nail with you stalker @seraph: you're right mate i liked that compilation a lot, totally slipped my mind... the thing is (and this IMO of course) good minimal does not equal austere production techniques... you can have multilayered minimal, with melodies and a lot groove going on but that point the focus is on the groove having progressive touches without heading to typical housy infleunces... thats good minimal in my opinion... and i guess good minimal - like good anything- is hard to produce and hard to find...

dmtree Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 all those mentioned are really nice releases.. would love to hear more in this vein, techy glitchy dark proggy stuff in the vein of Spirallianz - Stereopark. Still one of the best albums of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V/A - Complexity by Cold Groove http://www.psyshop.com/shop/CDs/col/col1cd002.html - i just ordered metalogic from psyshop i couldn't resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmtree Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 looks good.. also don't forget the excellent compilations from Psyristor and Horns and Hoofs records - more on the techy side, though. And the stuff by Weird Walker as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lumpi Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 All great suggestions so far, I miss the dark minimal sound as well, after all it´s still my number one love when it comes to psy. I´d like to recommend an album which I think was completely overlooked when it was released in 2003: V/A - DTB Sessions 2.2 (Databass). This is dark, heavy blasting stuff and probably one of my alltime favourites. Definitely worth a check if you don´t know it already... btw. where can I buy this Minimal Ritual comps? I didn´t hear of them before... any links? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnome Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 My all time favourite x-dream track has been remixed *must get copy* cheers seraph 342988[/snapback] Yeah well.....the sound is phat and smashing,definitely a nice remix but.....there is only one Psychomachine.

heva Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Yeah well.....the sound is phat and smashing,definitely a nice remix but.....there is only one Psychomachine. 342993[/snapback] Ok so I finally got my mittens on the electroscopic compilation - and the psychomachine rmx is quality! I was wondering whether I'd hate it, since I appreciate the original so much, but it's excellent. Cheers folks for opening my otherwise half closed eyes to this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tox Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Saw The Delta live this week-end, very dry & dark progressive... Their new stuff's got nothing to do with "Butterflies on the walls" that's for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
