[qd-4269] not in the mood for dancing – shapes and concepts

Cool and collected, this mature second QED Records release from not in the mood for dancing plays with subtle grooves that ebb and flow, coming up with four tracks that could be used as background music for documentaries or cyborg striptease numbers. Before it ends though, you are reminded that dance music instruments don’t always produce dance music. With a nod towards the title, NITMFD (aka Nelson Tan) posits that tools are tools and the shapes you build are not dictated by the tools; rather they are dependent on the concepts behind the construction.

FILE UNDER: downtempo, electro, electropop, sounds like El Ten Eleven, Squareone, Spazzkid, kinda like the future sound of lotion.

Album Cover for NITMFD - Year II (qd-4265)

[qd-4265] notinthemoodfordancing – Year II

notinthemoodfordancing takes synths and loops and mixes in bouncy hip hop beats to create electropop that squelches and fizzes and floats and sputters and echoes in your head. Year II is a 4-track EP comin in at 16 minutes in length, but bringing you to a cool, laidback mental atmosphere.
