\nPontone\u2019s Special Guest: Simon Reynolds \u2013 Eldritchtronica and Wyrd Bliss Mixtape<\/p>\n

“When Pontone<\/a> asked if I fancied coming up with a mixtape of favorites from the last decade, I thought \u201cthat could get pretty motley\u201d. So I focused on a particular sound-stream: \u201celdritchtronic\u201d, a non-existent genre that cuts across a bunch of zones (hauntology, the trippier end of microhouse, hypnagogic\/glo-fi, the Brooklyn school of \u201cecstatic experimental\u201d, etc). Mostly electronic but rarely intersecting with the dancefloor, this music merges blissy and eerie, the wired and the wyrd. And because the 2000s was when the linear temporality of music definitively dissolved, there\u2019s leakage from the remote past, musique concrete and text-sound by artists I encountered for the first time during the Noughties. The selection was by me; Pontone assembled and sequenced (expertly\u2013only thing I\u2019d change would be to have \u201cChronometer\u201d emerge out of \u201cFizheuer\u201d Zieheuer\u201d\u2026 try it, you\u2019ll see what I\u2019m getting at). But I did ask for the Ariel Pink song to go last, as that has special meaning.”\u00a0Simon Reynolds<\/a><\/p>\n
