I'm obsessed with this album and want to find more music like it. Other people have recommended Autechre who I already listen to, but I don't find their music to be as danceable as this album.
The Raster-Noton label is typically known to produce very "academic" music. I like this album so much because I find it to be at the intersection of academic music and fun/catchy/dancy music.
So ITT: albums like this one or more generally at the intersection of fun and academic; also discussion of why you think music might be appealing at this intersection

woah i was clearly wrong. this is awesome! To be fair, I haven't listened to any Autechre past Confield, so I guess I unfairly judged.
How has their recent music changed from their earlier stuff?
This Autechre song is also sort of similar to And IV : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAf2aqZGl8w
But yeah, I must admit, except Ueno Masaaki, that they aren't a lot of people doing dank glitchy beats these days, AFAIK.
farmersmanual were awesome tho.

Draft 7:30 is basically a more accessible Confield
Untilted is them with some Elektron machines from the 2000s
Quartistice is basically their mid-thirties crisis.
Oversteps is them fucking around with FM synthesis/FM8.
Exai is them trying to do something new (fucking around with compression, and other stuff I didn't grasped yet)
Elseq is them doing Exai live in their basements like that Quaritisce.quadrange EP

apparently farmers manual is very popular. somehow i've never heard of them before, but I shall be sure to give them a listen!
>>66294608
This is very much along the lines of what I'm looking for! Is the whole album like this? I've listened to Xerrox Vol 1-3 and got a very different vibe of Alva Noto.
>>66295191
I've listened to Rhythm before and definitely like it, but I feel like there's not that much variation in all the tracks. I'll give it some more listens tho
>>66294872
this is actually my favorite album XD

Regarding Alva Noto, you should check out UNITXT. Most of the album is like this. I think you'll enjoy it
