Dorian White + Cex + Khonnor + Yasume



It’s another nostalgia day.

I listened to a lot of IDM(dirty word I know but its coming back but under a different name) in the early 2000’s and one of the first artists I found after joining WATMM(message forum that started as a BoC and AFX) was Dorian White, I think we’ve talked over AIM for close to 10 years, his music was aggressive, sad and playful all at the same time which got me more interested in music like Wisp. His new single dropped today on iTunes and the track Exit has been on repeat ever since i’ve had it.

At one point in my life I don’t think I ever DJed a set without playing this song by Cex, I don’t know what he does now but I can’t see him ever blowing this one out of the water.

I ask you all to listen to this Khonnor song from start to finish, I hate hearing it end.

One of Yasume’s most beautiful compositions.

    Although a totally different direction, I always loved Cex’s Being Ridden. He’s a great performer.

    “and another Khonnor album on par with Handwriting.”

    I’ll second that.

    Forgive my ignorance, but I really love Wisp and the above posted, but what genre is it if it isn’t IDM?

    I’d love to find some more!

    @JAKUB Cheers!

    WPRK has a show format labeled as nerdcore. You could always check into that?

  14. Dorian White says:

    HEY. HEY.

    STOP TALKING ABOUT KHONNOR AND CEX AND TALK ABOUT ME.

    I KNOW THEY’RE WAY BETTER THAN I AM, BUT THIS IS MY GOD DAMN 15 MINUTES. I’M FUCKING FAMOUS GOD DAMNIT.

    But man, Being Ridden is such a great album. Handwriting too.

    I’m enjoying Dorian’s ep. An lp is most anticipated. Nice selections here. Wow CEX..it’s been a long time. I need to revisit his material.
