ShadowCoH316 Yeah. That soundtrack introduced me to a genre of music I had no idea existed. I was settling for the Costa Rican band called Patterns which is great, but I always wanted more music like in Blade Runner.
I love the "Beyond the Black Rainbow" intro. Such a messed up movie. First track definitely has that Sinoia Caves vibe they nailed throughout the entire movie. No matter what synthwave/retrowave or "Horror Tech" as I call it i come across in my long trek into the genre I ALWAYS come back to Perturbator as the quintessential fully-realized sound I have been waiting for since 1979. Keep this stuff coming!
Maybe to you, but if I want to go buy a specific song or two from an album, I know have to GUESS which title I'm looking for unless I make a mental tracklist and follow the time myself. I listen to these while doing other things and if one grabs my attention that I like I stop and go buy it. Can't do it with ones like these because it takes so much longer.
Call me nuts, but I would think that would be the Blade Runner soundtrack itself. Vangelis was obviously an influence on what Kent tries to achieve in his more atmospheric tracks .
Could you please upload to your youtube channel the first two tracks joined together with no hiccup? They sound great one after another, they should flow perfectly...
In a way it is. According to Perturbator this album is "the soundtrack to a non-existent movie filled with an imagery that will only live through the listeners imagination".
Well, I can't exactly say I agree to their sampling without credit policy, so yeah.. there's that. The point I was trying to make though, is not exactly being "against" daft punk, but merely "for" preferring this to the soundtrack for Tron.
Slanj Bo "because without them there wouldn't be music like this now". Oh yes, because lets forget about the synthesizers of the 70's and 80s, and the 80's films with synthesizers, oh and retro games, stuff which was long out before Daft Punk. This music has nothing to do with that mainstream duo Daft Punk. Perturbator himself says that this music is inspired from retro games, Terminator, Blade Runner and other 80's movies, so Daft Punk has nothing to do with this. They'd be so lucky if they inspired Perturbator. However, Giorgio Moroder, the Grandfather of Synthesizers inspired Daft Punk.
They probably chose Daft Punk because they're mainstream and the little kiddies and sheep of society will guarantee sold tickets for the film. It's sad really. Popularity over creativity.
+eon14873 its a big problem for most instrumental-heavy groups. I think most tracks dont even have space for vocals to fit in which is part of the beauty of this genre, never hurts to try tho.
I feel like Le Matos is easily better than all the others but i don't hear them mentioned much. Maybe they aren't considered to be quite in the same group.
Cryogenics12 no, the night business one. I just like the start and end part of the song. Don't like the middle part, it gets to...weird...I don't know, it's my opinion
