What has the year 2013 brought to us?
I'm not exactly the most apt person to talk about new music, as I have so much stuff to catch up with and so little time to listen. Anyway, here's some stuff:
Autechre - Exai. Being a huge hardcore Autechre fanboy, I felt like a complete idiot for finding out they had a new album three months too late. But I still managed to buy it from Bleep and give it some listens, and it surely nourished the Autechre-craving part of my brain. It's the first double album they put out, and it's meaty and saucy, and the spaghetti is al dente. Not really a nice introduction to someone who never heard their music, but a fine addition.
Daft Punk - Random Access Memories. Heard it only once so far, but it's been a long time since I've been so excited by a dance-oriented album. Wonderful songs, amazing production and attention to detail, great atmosphere. The Giorgio Moroder hommage had my hair stand on end.
Upcoming records I can't wait to hear:
Boards of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest. 8 years of silence, an incredibly clever and satisfying launch campaign, and a promise of a great album to come out on June 10. I can't say how anxious I am, I can barely wait.
So, anyone else?
