Telepopmusik

Anybody into Telepopmusik? "Genetic World" was my introduction to all things Electronic music and a good intro at that! Downtempo, Ambient, Deep House, Electro, nu-jazz all mixed into one great record.

Best known for this little tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdGBsS9yTww

Their third album is set to drop this year. The lead single "Ghost Girl" was released two years ago, but I think they've had some problems with their record label. From their myspace, it looks like they're completely independent now.

Genetic World is the album that guides me into the electronic world. Each track is different from another.
And the sample "When I retire from the lab, I wish I could be a composer." is my favorite sample cause I'm currenly working in a molecular biology lab and I REALLY WISH I COULD BE A COMPOSER!
:D

very nice synthpop indeed.. thanks for the youtube link to the Mathematics song... haven't heard that one before yet!

apparently it's called "mathematics" because the official title is δp.δq≥h⁄4π on the Genetic World album.

clever! just like Aphex Twin did on the windowlicker mini cd... with the track "equation"

They released a double A-side last year and just released a song called "Sound" a couple of days ago.

I'm bumping this age old thread because:
A.) New music

B.) I'm listening to Mathematics now and it's perfect.

Breathe was overplayed but certainly deserved all the attention it got. It's really simple in most respects but the subtle shifts of sound and the vocal treatment are excellent. I've tried to figure out how they got that vocal effect as well as the vocal in Royksopp's Sparks.
