    My daughter sent me here and I'm absolutely blown away! This album was my baby in 98. Thank you so much for all the kind words, everyone! I wish you all could've been at release party K2K had at the El Rey Theatre. Show of the century! All the bands on the disc were friends, and we played the whole night like a DJ set. Players from each band were changing places all night. The music never stopped. Maybe we'll have to do a Volume 2. Cheers!

    This is great! Mindspore was my record label, and this and the Cavestar album were the best that we put out. I still have enormous pride in what we did here. My favorite song on this album is L'Orque Epaulard (Killer Whale). I also really love Unsaid Warning and the lines: "are you running with your eyes closed... are you talking with your mind closed" "And now you say there's a devil flying through your head - and it looks like me". I will always appreciate the work that Kevin (Cavestar) did to put together the art and the whole package.

    For more music similar to this, I recommend the following:
    Amon Tobin/Cujo (same person, different "stage names").
    Supreme Beings of Leisure
    The compilation album Wallpaper Mach 1.5
    The Hotel Costes compilation albums
    The music used in Gran Turismo Sport (specifically those from Lenny Ibizarre and Kay Nakayama).
    The OST for the game "TOCA Racer Driver 3"
    Dzihan & Kamien (specifically the album "Gran Riserva").
    Afternoons in Stereo
    Audio Lotion
    Beats Antique (specifically the albums "Contraption" volumes 1 and 2).
    One-T (album "The One-T ODC", absolutely astounding).
    Dadamnphreaknoizphunk (yes that is actually the artist's name).
    Moodorama (specifically the album "My Name is Madness").
    Bonobo (specifically the album "Dial 'M' for Monkey").
    TOKiMONSTA (specifically the album "Midnight Menu").
    Emancipator (specifically the album "Baralku").
    Röyksopp (specifically the album "Melody A.M.").
    The Pinker Tones
    The Chemical Brothers (specifically the album "Push the Button").
    Thievery Corporation (very similar to Supreme Beings of Leisure, both used gratuitously in the early "Tiger Woods PGA Tour" golf games).
    RJD2
    Xploding Plastix
    Cut Chemist
    Peder (a song from the album "And he just pointed to the sky..." was used in Breaking Bad)
    Faithless (albums "Outrospective", "Reverence" and "Sunday 8PM").
    Gotye (albums "Like drawing blood" and "Boardface" (no longer available online likely due to sample copyright)).
    Hexstatic (album "Telemetron").
    Mr. Scruff (album "Trouser Jazz").
    The OSTs for the N64 games "Rush 2: Extreme Racing USA" and "Rush: 2049"
    The OSTs for the Trackmania games (specifically "Valley", "Canyon" and "Stadium").
    The OSTs for the "Grid" games from Codemasters (specifically the original, 2 and Autosport).
    The OSTs for the F1 games from Codemasters (specifically 2012, and 2015 through 2017).
    The OST for the GameCube game "F-Zero GX".
    The OSTs for Forza Motorsport 3, 4 and 6 (3 and 4 very much fall into the category of lounge/spa music, 6 is a bit more intense/orchestral).

    Artists like Massive Attack, Aphex, Plug a.k.a.

      Not trip hop really. More urban downtempo with a few subgenres. Trip was meaning Trippy or psychedelic. These arent really made to be trippy. They were more destined for lounges...

    • @Uncle_Nori
      @Uncle_Nori Місяць тому +1

      Consider what you're saying. Back then, the future had a defined look, sound, and texture. The future was clear. The future was very distinct. It in fact, was *so* known.
      It's the current flavor of futurism which is opaque. Despite all the apparent advances in AI, Quantum Computing, Biotechnology, and material sciences, the future does not have a defined aesthetic. It's a very uncohesive hodgepodge. There's a "futurist" product coming out everyday, whether a show/movie/game/etc. But its not tethered together, its not a "culture" proper.
      IE: Back then, the future was fresh and known. Now, the future is old and unknown.

    This is a great album. I dont listen to much techno but as an outsider I'll say Every song song slaps like crystal method but slower tempo like thievery corporation but each song track is different. Quite a good variety.
    Actually it reminds me a lot of pretty lights but with less rapping and dub step wuba tubing. I understand this is from 98 so I guess this was vary influential. I was only ten in 98 so was probably only listening to rock music wich was starting to die.
