Recently I was able to complete a project related to the Lorenz system of equations (or the Lorenz attractor). It wasn’t too heavy of a project, but I still didn’t want to be that distracted while making it. Hence, I wanted to have some instrumental music in the background since I get easily distracted with …
Recently I completed two different sets of Lagrangian based simulations ([1] and [2]). I believe that Lagrangian based problems are cool and solving them is fun. Anyways, I believe that the song ‘Magnesium Flares’ off the album As Is by We might be a suitable soundtrack to the motion of double and triple pendulums. I …
Aphex Twin, Selected Ambient Works 85-92, R&S Records… To celebrate a big slew of marking once (I believe I completed a few weeks worth in a few days), I treated myself and bought a few records. Among the purchases was this one which I already had a copy on CD. I have to say that …
Autechre, Gescom, Keynell, Warp Records 1996. Since I bought the first Gescom – Keynell release, the kind folks at the record store thought that I would be more than interested in this one. So they ordered it in and put it on hold thinking that I would for sure buy it. I eventually did, but …
Mike and Rich, Expert Knob Twiddlers, Rephlex Records… So this album is the result of two electronic music kings competing creatively while being super crazy drunk. The songs are the perfect soundtrack for an 8 year olds end of school year party. When I got this album, the guy at the store told me… ‘make …
Up, Bustle and Out, Ron y Menta EP, Ninja Tune… With Covid19 I have been going through records that I totally forgot that I had. I was a big fan of various things on the NinjaTune label. My musical tastes have evolved a over the years, so some of these tracks do not turn my …
Kraftwerk, Electric Cafe… Florian Schneider, one of Kraftwerk’s co-founder’s died recently. They were one of the most important bands ever… so many references on this… [1], [2], [3], [4] I remember years and years ago, one of my friends at the time introduced me to Kraftwerk. He had a few different CDs including a compilation …
Polygon Window (Aphex Twin), Surfing on Sine Waves, Warp Records, 1993… so certain ‘communities’ are a bit close minded and tend to like a what they like. It’s not everyone who lives there but it seems to be impossible to find anyone different. Whenever I go to a record store in one of those communities, …
DJ Slugo, Godzilla Remixes, Databass records, 2003… This old job that I had wasn’t always that fun. No matter how awful it was, the drive home usually made it better since this one radio station always played some crazy ghettotech tracks like this classic… I remember that I bought this at Record Time on 9 …
Squarepusher – Conumber EP – Spymania Records – 1995… So years and years ago, I bought a copy of this record and really enjoyed it. At the time I was living in this place with these huge windows and didn’t have any curtains. Anyways, I left a copy this ‘classic’ on my turntable and then …
