cubus - late 5am tired eye

Well it took a long time to get finished, but it finally got done and it's right here (there ?) for the download / purchase

    Quote

at long last, 'late 5am tired eye' is finished.

featuring a tape in a microwave, field recordings from across the globe

(recorded on such esteemed devices as a fisher-price tape recorder),

and of course the usual generous helping of trademark lush synth sounds and

long crossfades, this is without doubt cubus' finest achievement to

date!

 

the album is available for free download (160kbps mp3) or to purchase

(£5.99 for professionally printed CD edition plus a 60-minute exclusive

bonus disc).

So yeah, the mp3's on there are only 160kbps and we've (well mainly joe !) spent a heck of a lot of time mastering this thing (a heck of a lot more than the other albums which really weren't mastered at all) and so the proper CD sounds much better. We hope you like it, we certainly enjoyed putting the thing together. None of these have been uploaded onto here before (well possibly like an early version of a couple of the tracks), so everything on it (and the bonus CD !) is two t'umbs fresh...

So get down to it:

Enjoy, get some headphones on, and listen to in a nice darkened room.

Cheers everyone,

Pete.

thnxbye.

sweeet

a long awaited cubus release

teh gump

rubens

i wanted to buy the cd but i'm gonna have to download it for now.

is it a cdr?

Yeah its a CDR (well 2x CDRs) rather than a glass plate-pressed CD as we couldn't guarantee that we'd shift 50 let alone the 500 needed for an order for CD Replication from the pressing agency !

you boys will sell thousands one day. mark my words. thousands.

how come you so sure?!

hmmmmm. this thread seems to have found its way into YLC... i wonder what disqualifies this as a 'new release'. especially as there are so many other net and self-released stuffs in that forum. :undecided:

Yeah that's... weird....

Sorry that were my doing. I thought it was a bit less pretentious in here, plus I thought it's more likely to get review-based feedback in here than in the New Releases section (here seems more appropriate for reviews of non signed stuff, whereas the New Releases section seems more appropriate for discussion of that signed artist). I can ask Mr.Joyrex to move it back if needs be. So yeah for those who downloaded it, what do y'all think ?

I re-posted it in New Releases... so like... it's not pretentious... cos you didn't post about yourself :P

Titter :laughing: Nice work sir, I hope you enjoy it

YAY I ordered it... I didn't think paypal would let me sign up with them again cos I screwed up my old account with them and I heard so many horror stories about paypal treating everyone like criminals.. but all went well... ARGH I can't wait!!!

I haven't bought a CD since about March of this year...

i thought you didn't need an account any more to pay through paypal, it just asked you to sign up at the end...?

thanks for ordering anyway, mr. majig. i hope you will not be disappointed with your purchase! :innocent: be sure to let us know what you think of 'em both.

edit: i just found an old cd lying around; i'll bung that your way as well. it's one of a batch i made to give out free at a gig, it's only stuff that's available online though so nothing too exciting.

Hooray for bonus!

Yeah it gave me the option to not sign up for paypal, so I filled out the form, but then when I tried to enter it in it just said something along the lines of "you can't do this, cos you're not a paypal account holder personymajig".

So.. that's kinda odd.. but I don't care cos a paypal account can come in handy every now and again anyway

I'm enjoying this , it reminds me alot of Global Communications and Reload tracks

very impressive. i want to buy this; check your mail.

Cheers for the order man, no doubt Joe has got in contact with you recently over it. I hope you enjoy it :)

ordered CD. send it quick!

(oh, and this of course duty binds you to buy the new Rubens album, out on full CD release in 3 weeks!)

very nice thx

did somebody say buh-hu-hu-hump?

just sent another one of these off to finland... gotta say thanks to whoever's spreading the word out there!

i like the bonus disc that came with it. :-)

au = best song everrrrrr

i want to remind everybody that "bell tower part 6" is one of the most beautiful ambient tracks and that this album is something everybody onboard should have.

Cheers man !!

God I miss making music, I haven't done anything serious for months due to a mixture of laziness and stoopid work life zapping creativity.

I really like this. Good job y0!
