Massively late – this is what Last.fm said I was listening to in 2010:

1. Actress – Hubble

   Quote from kem1kal in the YouTube comments for this – “this transports??? me to another universe. glad electronic music finally sounds like the future again.”. Especially love it when people embrace the sound of a technology to make new, weird stuff rather than just using it to replicate old styles.

2. CUB – C U 1 (UST Remix)

   Impossibly dark clanky techno, by Regis/Mick Harris.

3. Sandra Electronics – It Slipped Her Mind

   Cabaret Voltaire-style drone industrial-bossanova from Regis, blummin’ marvellous.

4. Entro Senestre – La Caccia

   Can’t help but thinking this is just another Danny Wolfers pseudonym – it sounds just like a Smackos production, and none the worse for it.

5. Oneohtrix Point Never – Russian Mind

   I’ve played this video an awful lot to our 2 year old toddler, who usually reaches for the mute button with stuff I play him, but he just gazes at it, utterly rapt. Possibly worrying so. His mum has banned him from watching it now. Booo hiss.

6. Fet Et Moi – Paris Is For Lovers

   Heard this on the Astro Unicorn Radio show on IFM, an excellent moody acid house take on Justin Timberlake’s “My Love”, mmm square-wave bassline.

7. Oneohtrix Point Never – Laser to Laser

   I couldn’t get on with “Returnal” particularly, but I drank deep from “Rifts”. Think I prefer “Betrayed In The Octagon” or “Computer Vision” to be honest, but still good.

8. Actress – Lost

9. 9. Actress – Futureproofing

   (not on YouTube)

10. 10. Mathew Jonson – Ghosts in the AI

    Pretty old-fashioned electro-techno, sort of surprised this one was in my top ten listened to, not that it’s not a good track. Nice farty bassline.

And top artists – it’s all Actress.
