Best album 2016?

OK well this topic seems interesting, but how about one track per genre and maybe include also a category where one can put other electronics? u know stuff like synth-pop/electro/techno/retrowave/synthwave or whatever up your alley instead of just goa and downtempo?

More than likely it's my unreleased album.

 

You know it's good based on the way I'm disgusted by everyone else's music and my superior critiquing ability that obviously displays how good it am.

 

Uh, no - JK, but sadly I feel a few people around here really would say this and mean it.

You're welcome

I had to listen to that album at rather low volume (baby in the house, remember?) so I still think I haven't appreciated as much as I should.

Maybe in the future, who knows?

 

Don't worry. You don't have to like it for me to consider it the best album of 2016 ;):D

 

For me it will be much more difficult to decides what's the order after the 1st - there's Artha, UX, Loud, Tripswitch, Globular, Crossing Mind, Morphic Resonance ...and Astrix ( :blush:). It's been a great year!

Blush blush for Astrix! :lol:

 

UX is easily 2nd or even at par with Neevasystem, Artha 3rd, Morphic Resonance 4th from the list above. Have to listen to so much of GDR stuff & im pretty confident it'll fill the top few places in the top 10

some favs:

 

Flooting Grooves - groovy and floaty stuff

 

Manifold - Digital Sun (on my phones right now and it's great)

 

Dark Whisper - Realms of unseen - :o :o :o :o :o soooo epic !!!!!

 

 

chillwise somehow nothing really kept my attention, i dunno, is there some heavy experimental bass-step music hiding...?

astrix? now i can't take anything you said about ticon seriously ;)

 

Yeah, that indeed looks suspicious and incoherent but if you refer to my comment on Astrix and then compare it with the expectations I have for progressive trance, then I think my stance becomes clearer - Astrix (IMO) pulled off a very good full-on album, with lots of variety, energy, emotion and is musically accomplished; while I only see Ticon as average take on the prog trance formula, i.e. it excels at nothing from my list above.

 

Or - alternatively - I'm just being unfair and prefer full-on over progressive trance :)

Pratika - Playing the presets is a strong contender as well.

It came out as a really nice suprise, plus it's free so win-win situation.

 

Hopefully I'll be able to make similar list like the last year because this year also had a lot great music to offer

I haven't listened to any full albums released this year, at least not all the way. You guys have given me some new stuff to check out. :) The five tracks I heard from Alter Ego by John OO Fleming were good, "Desert Rider" particularly.

 

I'm not really sure the Chi-A.D. album counts as "new," since it was released as mp3 and FLAC files in like 2007.
