Thanks, the Moblin downloads are good...

Stop Press!!!
A whispercore singer found dead near a Bingo Hall in Stretham with a needle in his arm.Whispercore fans the world over gather everywhere to pay homage.

I wonder what the next 'core' will be.

Skifflecore.

Thanks.

Glitch isn't new enough to be 'in' and it certainly isn't old enough to be vintage. Boring.

I haven't really enjoyed much of this type of music.
Not my style.
Gave it a shot.

Oval... but I don't know the others, apart from Pole, which i've never listened to properly... Oval is great, though.

only 7 votes?

8 but the board is mainly made of americans so..............

cantankerous hadn't voted when i said that. bloody americans (except cantankerous).

Oh but she's a rock chick aint she?

oval, pan sonic, disastronaut (is only ok) are worth checking out. its electronic music to play to people who like handbag techno. its the white metal of the dancefloor. its minimiklist but not in a silent way. its noisy but not in a loud way. its basically electronic music made by electricity and sounding like electricity. broken programs, scratched compact discs, faulty wiring, static shocks, its a genre worth investigating big time.

Is the Raster-Noton stuff Glitchcore? I'm not getting hung up on labels, I've just never heard any of the bands listed and I'm trying to get an idea of what they sound like.

Pan-sonic I've heard though. They're pretty good. Is that typical?

scissor shock, essential glitchcore.

Anyway, my superglitchcore band is www.myspace.com/syrfdraken

Definitely check out oval.. autechre uses elements of glitch.. but the best cut-up fucked-up crazy IDM glitch etc thing is eight frozen modules..

electro pookie

Pole isn't really glitchcore, but worth checking out.
Go for Venetian Snares's album Winter in the Belly of a Snake
Then buy everything Autechre have done post 1997 (but all their stuff is classic)

Winter in the Belly of a Snake isn't really glitchcore to me, it's drill n bass... with some glitchiness, sure.

Anyway, I posted a HUGE list on a thread along time ago for syrfox, with like 50 artists. Seek it out. For my money, late period Autechre is the best around.
