Easy to vibe with this during a pandemic - Julian Skiboat - My Room

Still can't get over vaporwave / future funk - π™Žπ™„π™€π™‡ - Riding シーァむド

Not usually a fan of abstract/concept projects, but I really liked the all-around experience of this:

Pioneer plaque vibes. There is probably only a loose (or personal to the artist) correspondence between the musical elements and the non-animated visual elements, but the four animated panels are probably left, right, mid, and side, but I'm not sure what phase space is being plotted. Amplitude and... ? Cool. More info here (oh snap, there's even a dig at NFTs in there).

Edit: nah the animated panels are divided by frequency (horizontally: low-high-high-low) and also an independent stereo (Left/Right OR Mid/Side?) component representation. Tough to tell, because it's all scaled to 1, in some way(s). This reeks of Max for Live.

P.S. rezzeJ - that 165 BPM bassline in "Redlining" cannot be "real", right? It's gotta be sped up. Can't find any footage of Anti-Philosophy performing live. Really loved the de-tuning in "Mysterious River Snake". More and more, it's clear to me that the imperfections in music are what makes it so appealing.

edit 1.1: P.P.S. I am about to benchmark Ableton's 11.1.? Apple M1-targeted release sometime with my own unique native effects chains and plug-ins. Let me know if you wanna know how it goes, otherwise I just keep these things to myself.
