Intro

In my sound studio, I was shown this website called everynoise.com. I had seen it before (sorry had to flex) but was so excited to remember this site.

Basically its a huge data aggregation project where these people sorted through algorithms and made a whole database of music based mostly on genre, but you can also sort/explore in other ways like by artist.

You click a genre - and then click an artist and listen. Pretty neat.

Anyways, just wanted to note down any notable artists I’ve discovered

Music I Found

Intelligent Dance Music / Ambient / Electronic

I’ve listened to some artists here, I also recognized some I didn’t realize were considered to be part of this genre.

  1. Aphex Twin
    • Starting to really explore him and his discography more. I’ve always found his work to be pretty interesting, at least as something to experience in the background.
    • Selected Ambient Works 85-92 is my first real listen so far.
  2. Four Tet
    • Marimbaaaaaaaaaa… Rip Steve Jobs you would have loved iphone ringtone-core music
    • Loved is a great listen, the first one I heard.
    • Looks like his newest releases include some stuff with Skrillex (massive Skrillex head over here, at least original dubstep stuff)
      • Volver is pretty good
      • Baby again… with Fred again.. and Skrillex is one I’ve heard and wasn’t obsessed with per say.
      • Butterflies is kinda fire this is going in a playlist for sure.

Highlife Jazz

I learned about this style of jazz recently, it’s pretty nice! I think they use it in the a24 film “high life” as well.

  1. Live Performance
