VHS Head - Trademark Ribbons of Gold

Not a bad album!

yeah its really growing on me. even my girlfriend wanted the mp3s instantly while she is still having my 2nd copy of oversteps without listening to it once lol

Excellent album! Totally lives up to the hype.

that particular vocal sample is 9 minutes into part 2/10 on youtube.

god what an awful awful turd of a movie. i probably have not seen this since i was like 8 and i should definitely keep it that way.

 

That movie was good!

u crazy. i didn't even like it when i was little, haha. jittlov scared me.

Surely it would hurt the pressings company more than Skam, unless they press themselves?

Im always wary of buying what people keep praising as "album of the year" ( ), think I need to hear a few more samples.

Cut up / Mash-up / glitchy stuff hasnt really been my bag, but its getting plenty of praise so I think I should give it a go.

listen to the MAH mix above, it'll give you a good feel for the album

Skam don't press stuff themselves, they seem to use MPO quite a lot, and usually they're very good. I'm imagining that Skam will probably get the repress at no cost to them, since MPO gave them a defective product.

also, LOL at people calling this glitch

i will say this much - it's definitely marmite

I love a nice spread of marmite on my toast in the morning?

I dont like Baked Beans though.

This album is incredibly sexy. Initial highlights for me include Ginasi, The Murder Cycles and Twitch of the Nerve.

anybody that doesn't like the tracks i've mentioned above, is a cunt of the highest calibre

If there is a certain souls out there, who goes by the name Basedlord. Would you please come back?

Yeah, this is good.

I have serious doubts that this is a gescom/ae or boc side-project as many have been speculating. This person seems to have their own unique twist on music. Almost like a unique, collage effect of interesting noises and jumpy melodies. Very different style compared to a lot of other electronic musicians out there. So far, this is one of the best releases I've purchased for a long time when it comes to music. It's early days still, but so far Oversteps is still outdoing a lot of recent releases this year for me though. Not sure if that is the same for others?

i bow down to those who were in the know

 

i know nothing

I gave most of this album a listen last night after reading such great things about it here... I just wasn't feeling it. Really just sounded like a mess to me. A few moments stood out but no complete tracks... I wonder what I'm missing.

I don't understand the BOC references either... doesn't remind me of them at all.

:(

i think 84 pontiac dream is probably the most 'vhs head' boc cos of the warped 80s tv ident sounds,

Old Tunes stuff and Midas Touch / Trapped also

then logically, old tunes version of trapped is vhslike^2, which it actually is. myth confirmed.

this album reminds me a lot of jackson and his computer band. i think that's a better comparison.

I'm guessing this is Ade Blacow then -
