cubus - für alali

I got mine this afternoon. I'm going to go listen to it right now, thanks!

Sold out

Awww man, im well bummed

Absolutely beautiful music! Great job mcbpete. This will stay on frequent rotation.

Do you want a little bit extra money for mine? Sending it to New Zealand might actually cost more than what I paid and I feel bad...

Oh it's fine, the overseas ones balance out the cheap UK postage, the whole project is non-profit anyway. :)

Got mine today, haven't had a chance to listen yet. CD seems to be in perfect shape, which is good (it seems that half the time I order a cd with no case it ends up getting broke in the mail).

Good stuff - hope you enjoy it (and springy, hopefully that'll mean your copy should arrive soon too...)

I meant to say I got this a couple of days ago and it is beautiful! Certainly some of your best work by far! It'll surely be another Cubus "classic" for me :)

got it.

listening now but i doubt its 8am sunny day appropriate

Hmm, probably not It's definitely more a night-time listen. Though saying that, whenever I ever listen to it in bed I'm usually asleep about about the 5 minute mark !

Picked it up today, absolutely brilliant, lovely work, cheers!

found out about it too late, but glad to hear it sold out. love to hear the full thing somehow

listening again as the sun goes down and it really works. track 1 piano is beautiful. reminds me of a loose max richter (minus tilda swintons fauning narration and violins etc)

20 copies seems criminal i'm gonna rip it and share it on napster. hit me up @dronefan69

is that you at the end pete when you was a wee bairn?

Yes, the numbers were apt for some of the lesser known artists in the series who still have copies left, but Pete's gone and embarrassed us all by having his sold out in 36 hours of the release date.

But seriously, thank you so much to everyone for their support on this release. I really did not expect to get even remotely close to selling out on this release especially given then sales of the last album and single....

what happened to the other guy in cubus?

He's still around This particular cubus release however was just a one off solo project by myself - cubus is strange in its structure as although it's comprised of me and my mate Joe we rarely work on tracks together (I think only two tracks on our last album were emailed back and forth to one another so were collaborative efforts, the rest were solo creations). However I don't think cubus could function if it did become a one man project: Joe adds a lighter (and usually structurally more complex) side to our work and I think it's that tonal change that makes our albums work.

ah interesting

Yeah I really like the fact that your albums drift between ambient drone and crunchy IDM... I love albums with variation.

Gave it a listen earlier. Very nice moody overcast music.

All the stuff I've heard from you guys sounds really nicely produced to me. Someone in music or movie land should totally be giving you burlap sacks filled with coins, with dollar signs painted on the sacks.

Cheers man, though I suspect I'm more likely to get sacks filled with burlap than anything else

For those that missed this current production run I shall be releasing a digital version of the single online from the 28th Feb....

OK, as promised for those that missed the uber-limited run of this first time around, here's the single in a convenient pay-what-you-want digital version ....
