This song is hands down one of my favorite sounding tracks i’ve heard in my life, its soo important for me to have this kind of music in my life especially when your in your own head most of the day and not in a office. Every time it starts up I feel myself loosening up and letting myself even out mentally, I need all 9:21 once it starts. [comes back after laying down and repeats song] If you come from a background where Juan Atkins and Maurizio were artists that changed your way of listening to music then these sounds aren’t just bubbling space synths these sounds are equal to peaking into the most private art collection and being able to spend an hour picking something out for yourself.
When you first hear this song by Magic Mountain he isn’t doing anything new when it comes to the people that have been following labels like Traum, Kompakt or Mille Plateaux. I guess it might be new to the indie kids, it would be amazing if old Kompakt releases got reissued because this kind of music got popular again, so I wish Mr. Magic Mountain the best of luck, I just hope he’s done his homework and knows he’s treading in a very beautiful secluded world where there is no room for any half assing because its already been done really really well.
4AD signed Zomby, wow, listen, I like it but just imagine these 2 worlds colliding.
What happened to the Idjut Boys? am I just not looking hard enough? they did such good edits, especially that one of Phil Collins, this one for Big Two Hundred is insane.
Kinda harsh words for such a great talent, I saw him at Turbotax in Brooklyn, NY a few months ago, and his very small set blew me away more than Jacques Greene (who undoubtably has great talent as well). You should check out his Holy Other remix of Yr Love or the B-side to One for My Ego, Plains. Magick Mountain (Magick Mountain is his name, different than the Magic Mountain from the 1924 Thomas Mann novel) draws similarities to Kompakt, and Traum definitely. But is there a huge difference in how Heathered Pearls draws from Kompakt? Isn’t something like ambient music the kind of thing that lies in the realm of something that’s already been done VERY well? I’ve followed everything on here for at least a year and a half and I really respect your opinion, just wanted to speak up for someone I’ve really had on repeat for a few months.
@JOACHIM ZIEMSSEN explain to where I wrote something harsh about Magic Mountain? I saw him a few weeks ago so I wanted to post about him and he was great live, I only wished him luck here, told him he has quality early work, I compared him to my favorite labels from when I loved to DJ and hoped for reissues from Kompakt as a wish for myself. I don’t post music I don’t like on the blog, I haven’t ever or would ever do that, why start now and why paint my opinion with a wide brush and use my music as an example? you have 3 seconds to answer, jk.
Don’t you see I care for the genre he is making music in?
That cover,(is it a cover?)… That is so great!
Looks like a movie poster from Close Encounters.
Zomby and Magic mountain are great tunes.
Thanx.

Thanks for the jams Jakub. Keep them coming.
A paltry but potent musical offering for you

Actually, the image is in fact UFO-related. It’s an illustration from an account of the Cash-Landrum UFO incident in 1980. Great story (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash-Landrum_incident)
If you are looking for some Idjut Boys-esque tunes, check out their label Noid Recordings. Plenty of solid vinyl releases, but in my opinion it’s the CD albums that are worth seeking out.
