Electronic Music's Most Memorable Album Launches
ra.coSnPLO + DJ Frog @ Openground 08/08
exciting !

Given what wutangdan has already confirmed in terms of numbers on mock lineup posters, this is my best guess at confirmed artists:
Going through both lineups for overlaps:
1 Tame Impala — headliner on both
2 Parcels
3 Four Tet
4 The Avalanches
5 Fatboy Slim
6 Darkside
7 DJ Shadow
8 Cobrah
9 Joost
10 Robyn
11 Zara Larsson
12 Tomora
13 Daphni
14 Marlon Hoffstadt
15 Mind Enterprises

Road trip song recommendations
I'm going on a roadtrip with some friends and two of them play insufferable amounts of John Summit, Subtronics, Seven Lions, Steve Aoki & Zedd. They're the totem pole making EDC die hards which is fine but I cannot be stuck in a car with that for 9 hours. What songs would you guys recommend to help bridge the gap between that style of electronic music with electronic music this sub favors.
Any 1 for club party night in Noida on Saturday night? Hit me up please
Hit me up for any plans on coming Saturday in Noida. Up for it.
Forbidden / Dead Zone BPMs
Kia ora. I'm hunting around for tunes in a few BPMs that are uncommon. I'm looking for stuff in the 85 - 115bpm range, but that's halftime. So basically 42.5 - 57.5bpm. Looking for stuff in the weirder/overload vein. I have a few across the years, so here are a few for reference:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdMbAH88mBM - Simo Cell - not all it's cracked up to be
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP2B_71qXr0 - Memotone - Koma
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiNKyI9poFE - Harmonic 313 - Dirtbox
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvoLkim4pvk - Lurka - Rhythm Hi-Tek
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvOZlDVFBr4 - Shamana - Carharrt (not quite the same but whatever)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STcqcQYIMXM - Cassius Select - Fake Death
Also just looking for stuff that's 108 - 115bpm in general that isn't ama / house / linear techno. Only one off the top of my head for reference is:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoZWAebdrh0 - Nouveau Monica - Hi Lo

Body Language
Hey overloaders! This community has been an amazing hub for expanding my electronic music knowledge over the years and helped inspire many trips to festivals like Dekmantel, Draaimolen, Movement and more.
I’m here to share a little passion project I’ve been working on with a couple close friends over the last few years. Body Language has evolved from a backyard party to a two day festival experience showcasing Canadian DJ’s and live acts. We’re located in rural Nova Scotia, nestled right along the Atlantic Ocean. The musical programming is very much in line with this sub and we’ve worked hard create a platform for the often overlooked Atlantic Canadian scene.
The setting is intimate, no more than 400 capacity but we’re always looking to attract fellow heads and those who support local DIY projects.
You can check us on on our website above or on IG @exploriasound.
Cheers gang! See you in the woods ツ
Madrid record shops electronic music
Not sure if this is the best place but given the knowledge in the group thought it would be a good place to start!
Can anyone recommend any record shops in Madrid that have a good selection of electronic music - electro/house/techno etc
Thanks !

Finally getting a release, you'll recognise this from every BenUFO set from the last 6 months
Oh myyyy this one is insane. Topdown Dialectic - A4
Is this guy by chance the same person as Paperclip Minimiser? They make very similar music and have very similar song titles
Walkman | Speedy J
Loving the new Speedy J so far, very adventurous little excursions into different sound worlds that flow together into something that feels cohesive.
Tristan Arp - Mutable Field from (re)weave EP
Absolutely killer, I just put this song (among a lot of other overload-y stuff) into the skate video I'm editing for our shop!
Similar techno recs
Hi!
I am a fan of First Wilson (Yaleesa Hall Remix), Freak Funktion by Literon, Cascade by John Tejada.
Does anyone here have any similar recs of artists, labels?
Also how would you describe this? Stripped back and minimalist, cerebral?
