New album on Mu!

just heard it... its great... lots of melodies floating around... steady beats...

Leak?

Ooh this is a pleasant surprise. I like a lot, a nice deviation from Bilious Paths/Ease Up. Feels a little more like old-school Paradinas.

yeah looks like some people on soulseek have it. I'll try to get a hold of it somehow

seen torrents listing, nothing more.

I found it rather easy to get from the electronic music room on Slsk. Not that I'd advocate piracy of course

i got it from a forum.

i don't love the album.. i think it needs some listening. or maybe it's just TERRIBLY bad music.

YES!

 

ugh... how incredibly photoshopped is that image? look at the blood on the shirt! :laughing:

waitaminit....it's photoshopped? I got some horrible vision, then.

this cover would suit a hardcore gabba album,,,not the music of the album at all

i actually really agree. it doesnt suit.

the albums actually alot better than i was expecting. not great or anything, but its alright.

Rise Of The Salmon is like the only track that really stood out.

very sad and nauseous album. gonna need more listening.

Yeah its a very strange album when you listen to it all together.

so far it seems pretty fucking dull.

Ive listened to bits and bobs of this now. Sounds very classic, like it could have been made any time in the last 15 years. Lots of Tango n Vectif style quirky portamento melodies and unfamiliar crunchy percussion. Every synth seems to be heavily detuned as well leading to a very odd nauseous eerie feeling. Well done Mike, not at all what I was expecting. Now I just need to buy it.

This album would have sounded much better if he didn't recycle the same synths and aimless melodies...I mean, "dirtylush stinkwife" recycles "dexedrine girl." come on...what the hell.

ok the album artwork has an almost playstation game look to it, but i'm so glad the music within hasn't followed the planet mu grime/dubstep/dancehall trend that his last album pointed towards. i really hate all that shit! nor has mike taken the rather predictable venetian snares route, which i for one thought he would. i'm so glad, as aaron funk to me is a talentless and noisey, repetative beat driven bore! it's good to see that mike is finding his roots again and doing what he does best - moody, affecting melodies and dynamic ambient atmospheres with beats!

I'm glad to hear some people like staying rooted more than 10 years ago.

Down with progression!
