ryxxbn an album i listened to a lot back around 2019-2020, finally purchased it here. this album is a great example of minimalist IDM that has a very 2000’s style to it, which i love. if you like that kind of IDM style, this is a definite listen. 8/10 Favorite track: Panther Doors.

Neon_de_Mars Yu Miyashita always try to make something new and absolutely different from all of other artists in same domain, this album is so hyperactive just like his Glitch IDM piece in very earlier time, but more danceable. Maybe we can see how Venetian Snares and Lorenzo Senni influenced Yu Miyashita from this album. Favorite track: Truth Embedding.

David Minnix I love this record. I've listened to it dozens of times so far. I am constantly amazed by these songs. Each track flows through complex patterns without feeling unnatural. They unfold. Gorgeous melodies and shifting rhythms. Favorite track: We Dance Alone.

We Dance Alone
CAT# DU-DFSTN6

For this album, I wanted to try a different stylistic approach to my work. Unlike my previous works, these tracks are in a 6/4 time signature, and have distinct melodies.

I was so frustrated and bored with the sounds and structure of current techno, which I once tried to be close to.
In a nutshell, standard techno is all about these elements:
4/4 kicks; delicate change of some musical elements within a time span; and the addition/substitution of layers within the track.

I have been feeling that when I started making music, I was inspired by an array of different musical genres, but once I started making Techno, everything became so unemotional and routinized.
Alas, I decided to change things up and revisit my roots - the melodious music that inspired me at the beginning of my journey.

I was overcome with the feeling that too-technologically-driven music can sound dated and frivolous, rather quickly. however, we cannot totally ignore the cutting edge side of music; change is inevitable.

Thus I wanted to make music that is timeless and relevant.
The result is the album We Dance Alone.
