Wax Tailor - Lost the Way

 

 

A pretty great EP.

give me a few details on this one side

Are you a Wax Tailor fan already? If so, this is an EP he released prior to his debut LP. I just found out about it two nights ago and performed Grand Theft Audio on it. 5 songs, guest vocals on some by Charlotte Savary (who does vocals on his LPs too) and Infinite Livez (never heard of that guy). If you don't know Wax Tailor, he's a French instrumental hip-hop/trip-hop producer who makes some really good beats. He uses guest vocalists on maybe 1/3 or 1/2 of his tracks, and tons of vocal samples which I love, giving his albums a very cinmatic feel, particularly the first one, Tales of the Forgotten Melodies, which I highly recommend. If you like DJ Vadim (particularly The Soundcatcher and U.S.S.R.: The Art of Listening), Vadim's other project One Self, and Blockhead, you should enjoy Wax Tailor.

wax tailor is quite good - only a hand full of the trac's of his have really struck me deep - although i have enjoyed nearly all of them. i've got hope and sorrow and in the mood for life.

looks like lost the way is his very first release - i'll give it a proper listen. yes on all the other artists you mentioned.

There are some good tracks on In the Mood for Life but I found it a bit disappointing overall. You need to get Tales of the Forgotten Melodies.

Menace Ruine - Cult of Ruins

Porcupine Tree - 'The Sky Moves Sideways'

Almost the same structure as Floyd's 'Wish You Were Here'.

Curren$y - Pilot Talk

Autechre - 'Oversteps' on vinyl.

Com Truise - Cyanide Sisters

Dirk Serries - 'Microphonics I-V'

on glorious vinyl. Fantastically well-done glacial ambient made entirely with guitar.

owen pallett - heartland

for like the 12th time.

hooked.

i am playing all the flying lotus' remixes and they are delicious.

the man is genious.

Faraquet / Akarso - Split EP

'The Wonderful and Frightening World of The Fall'.

Chris Moss Acid - Schottky Diode

The Black Dog - Temple of Transparent Balls

Anathema - We're Here Because We're Here

Millsart - Every Dog Has Its Day Vol. 3

Fuck why do I keep forgetting how good this is...
