Is this deconstructed techno? https://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/sampleradar-503-free-techno-samples-218884

Saw Ariel Zetina last night at the Wrecked & Carry Pride party in Brooklyn and I found myself thinking the whole time, now THIS is a DJ that can have Ha Dance samples going for half of her set and has the actual skills and voice to make a 2-hour c house set as engaging and probing as any ‘serious’ techno set or whatever. Definitely makes music that would get filed under the heading of this thread, but there was an understanding of dance music’s heterodox history (she’s from Chicago) that really elevated her to the top of DJ’s my age I’m actually excited about (not a whole lot of those unfortunately).

I meant 1, but I don’t fully want to back it as it’s a bit sweeping.
Basically I think you can think of new ways to move ppl effectively on a dancefloor (which may or may not be considered avant garde) but from what I’ve seen of this scene it often seem to take the route of just doing something weird and jarring. That’s not as interesting to me personally.
I do think there is a space for avant garde ‘unfriendly’ stuff, and I do like some stuff like that. I’m not really rating a lot of the stuff at the moment but I don’t know a lot about the scene or what they’re trying to achieve - it may well be that they have some reason for doing things the way they do (or there is some reason that it’s “connecting” with audiences / journos at the current time).

was dis? also, plastician’s still kicking around? oof. tho I gotta admit to listening the shit out of his Rinse show back in 07…remember he did a blend with Ayo Technology and some halfstep tune that blew my mind at the time.
Actually, for the sake of anyone who hasn’t heard this track…was near the end of Timbaland’s second renaissance, though I’m hoping he has a third act…adore his and Missy’s work in particular.

Amazing thread, wonder if you guys consider Marie Davidson’s stuff to fit within the ‘deconstructed’ description, another noteworthy mention would be her collaborator the illustrious Not Waving, I totally also recommend ‘Second Woman’ and of course Lanark Artefax

Showing up way late here but tossing in my write up on the Deconstructed Club scene. Obviously there’s some other chatter about Wonky, UK Bass, and Post-Dubstep in here as well that we’ve also looked at for anyone interested.
