10cc - The Original Soundtrack


a very belated happy new year!

here is some art pop from back when 10cc was art pop, my favorite of their works.

if you are interested in music production techniques, look into how the track below ("i'm not in love") was produced, some very clever techniques there!

Secret Mommy - Plays


Glitch artist Secret Mommy utilize some of the most bizarre samples since Matmos, and chop them up to create some very complex electronic music that somehow also manages to be catchy at the same time. The samples used show a wide variety of sources, everywhere from classical acoustic samples a la The Books, to animal noises and deconstructed pop hits. However, these odd parts aside, Secret Mommy creates what some have described as "Glitch Pop"; catchy tunes with nonsense lyrics, clicks and cuts, and a bizarre sense of humor that does not try to take itself seriously.
