William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops

"In the 1980s, Basinski recorded from found sound sources, shortwave radio, and delay systems, influenced by musicians such as Steve Reich and Brian Eno. Decades later, while transferring the recordings from magnetic tape to a more reliable digital format, Basinski found that the tape had deteriorated sufficiently that as it passed the tape head, the ferrite detached from the plastic backing and fell off. He allowed the loops to play for extended periods as they deteriorated further, with increasing gaps and cracks in the music. He further treated the sounds with a spatializing reverb effect"

I like your style barking spiders,☝️ king tubby albums are normally one of my choices if I’ve got a long drive 

 

Likewise Reggaebass. Dub is by far my fave reggae sub-genre. Big into KT too, along with Scientist. The Trojan dub comps are serious must haves

I've always been a mahoosive fan of Curve going way back. That Toni Halliday is/was as hot as f*** has quite a bit to do with it 😛 but I also like the crossover between the  Shoegaze vibe of My Bloody Valentine with electronica. Listening to Garbage you can def hear the Curve influence.

 

Always loved Curve - Shame they didn't do a bit more

One from me.

I found myself singing this the other day and it took me about half an hour to find the album. I did find a load of other albums I'd forgotten about during the search though, so no loss.

Brilliant album. Mind you, Mary Timony's a bit of a whizz in my opinion.
