Pretty good list to be honest. Close to what mine would be.

ofyc is a good latter period fall album. but there is noway in hell its even close to the top 10 for 2010. fuck i would be dissapointed if i looked hard enough and afterwards even had it in the top 100.

i do like the opn album but i don't think i'd have it in my top 10. sightings are good but haven't heard the one mentioned.

Will have to get that Omar Khorshid album. While I like a few of those groups, most of the albums I've heard on that list don't strike me as being particularly memorable. Must be a weak-ish year for music in their offices.

batreleaser · 06.25.2010, 10:35 AM

The Feeing of Love is great.

SYRFox · 06.25.2010, 10:41 AM

Nice to see Lorn on this, this record is amazing...

atsonicpark · 06.25.2010, 11:05 AM

my top 10:

1. autechre - move of ten
2. daniel higgs - say god
3. ariel pink - before today
4. master musicians of bukkae - totem two
5. ceepax acid crew - united acid emirates
6. univers zero - clivages
7. sigh - scenes from hell

I'm listening to Ikonika - Contact. Love. Want. Have now thanks to you and it's seriously the shit.

ni'k · 06.25.2010, 11:29 AM

to add some guitars try:
total abuse - mutt

xasthur - portal of sorrow
nails - unsilent death

and some of the best drone:
infinite body - carve out the face of god
machinefabriek - daas
robe - forsaken

i havent listened to enough new albums this year yet. still looking very much forward to broken deer.

atsonicpark · 06.25.2010, 11:32 AM

Haha robe. That album is coming out on NOISE NOT MUSIC label I believe. We're adding a track to it.

Definitely. I was really looking forward to it because of Sahara Michael and she did not disappoint. It's awesome. I read an interesting interview of her somewhere where she talked about how all those 8bit/16bit sounds were basically inside anybody that's born after 1980 and so there's a nostalgy to it or something (can't remember exactly), etc, and I feel like it's actually how I react to those sounds - to a certain extent.

atsonicpark · 06.25.2010, 11:49 AM

brilliant

ni'k · 06.25.2010, 11:50 AM

i d/led that 5gb robe torrent, it took a longass time with 1/0 seeders. then got stuck at 97.5% and i finally realised it was broken and there is a fixed one im now at 87% on.

i think maybe i will try to get in everybodys top 10 this year by releasing a concept prog noise album called "WELCOME TO MODERNITY, 1 MILLION DEAD AFGHANS!" which is about a failed 00's indie rockstar who dies due to crack addiction, and goes to hell, where satan promises to undo his death and make him rich and famous and have his album go to no.1 if he successfully takes on the job of explaining to the over a million dead Afghan civlians about modernity, the western way of life, and what their deaths accomplished.

batreleaser · 06.25.2010, 12:23 PM

Ariel Pink is my absoute number one.

I was surprised by how much I like Pantha du Prince.

Everyone should get Heartland by Owen Pallett, it's great !

atsonicpark · 06.25.2010, 05:07 PM

Putting Ikonika in my top 10 now actually. HOLY FUCK.
