Funckarma

Now these Danes are some I cannot get enough of...

I bought their albums "Parts" about a year ago from a guy off ebay and when I got it I was satisfied from the first listen...of course the autechre reference was there, but the album seemed a bit, well, unfinished, like their were parts in the songs that just seemed to not make the right turn...so I put it down for a couple months...

6 months passed, and I came across their album "Solid State" from a trade that made with a friend...from the first song I was totally enthralled by the difference...what do I hear? a bit of a trip-hop like sound? hear a jazz melody? along with the autechre type programming at times? oh yes folks, please, if you pick up any release, if you can find this damn cd, please try to pick this one up...if you're a fan of the oldies: Autechre, Aphex Twin or Squarepusher, I believe you'll really like this album...brings melodies, glitchiness, and just great programming that is most surely not overdone...I've listened to this album now 4 times in a row and it means something different to me each time, I can thank my friend most assuredly for trading me this, for now I am filled with happiness, or some sort of zeal.

u know, I never quite noticed funckarma's albums in a used CD store...

Joseph Nothing's "Dreamland Idle Orchestra"...haven't had the chance to listen to it yet, but will soon..also the Clicks and cuts vol 3 and vol 1...now I have the whole set hehe...got others on the way but not sure when they will be here

Josh, you CD buying whore

Clicks and Cut 1 and 3 should be fun! are there any tracks from Twerk on them? I really like Twerk's Now I am Rendered Useless album.

Oh Steve Reich, I only have that remix album. I like that remixed by Andrea Parker.

i have the remix album as well, its what turned me on to him, and yes, I'm a whore, i can't help it...not sure about Twerk, but I'll check

I know Clicks and Cuts Vol. 2, either Disc 2 or 3 has a song by Twerk, and that one was pretty good.

well a Funckarma album might be hard to find at a used cd store, but then again, what do I know? they are on a label called Djak-up-Bitch (DUB)...maybe that will help

genghis · 07-27-2003, 03:19 AM

only got 'parts' . i'm gonna check out 'solid state'.

Equinox · 07-27-2003, 02:58 PM

well, what do you think of Parts, Genghis? If you liked it, you are guaranteed to like Solid State much better...
