lets bump this sucker, also cos of its WILD remix on the album (#9"cry flames")

I'm kind of so-so on the album - UltraThizz and the one with the seinfeld bass didn't grab me at all but All Night and After Light were quite nice.

So definitely not album of the year, but not bad.

Its pretty good. The production and synths are interesting but for some reason it doesn't stick with me.

Cry Flames is more like a part 2 than a remix but yeah

It is a pretty good album. Not a massive amount different to his EP but I expect it'll grow on me with more listening.

I've been anticipating this one, will check out soon.

Pre-release download now available, thanks warp. When are the physicals coming?

*edit*

Fuuu, Surph is so much fun!

OK so i just remembered that Warp like to chuck random extra shit in with vinyl orders, so I went and shook the mailer...

Sure enough there's a CD in there. Clear plastic slipcase. Just says "WARP", but the R in warp is the R from the Rustie logo...

It's just a single 45 minute track. Doesn't sound like Rustie to me... definitely a mix... a sampler mix of current Warp shit? Mixed by Rustie?

Meh. If this is the current Warp roster, it's a pretty good ad for planet mu

Haha not feelin it? That's cool that you got it for free though.

Damn, FACT just gave this 5/5.

So am I alone in not receiving my CD copy in the post yet?

if you mean that they imitate each-other now i agree, except for that Warp was doing 'wonky' (hate that word) before Mu. The whole foot-work Africa Hitech thing seems totally like their Deep Impact for Mu's Armageddon thogh (Machinedrum's new one)

No I mean it makes Mu sound really diverse, modern and exciting, by being none of those. It sounds like a bunch of EKT tracks and the odd mid 2000s indietronica song, punctuated by "oh, thats rustie/hudmo/afrika hitech" every 15 tracks or so

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn this is good. I love all the 90s video game samples, and Hover Traps using Seinfeld is a definite lol.

It's a good album overall, specially Ultra Thizz. Reminds me of Hudson Mohawke a lot.

There are some sounds sound pretty bad in my opinion, for example I can't stand the end of Surph.

i just listened to this album through completely twice in a row. I honestly cant remember the last time i did that.

I am starting to believe I must be wrong on this bloke called Rustie as everyone is going nuts over him. I'll be sure to check it out again.

Hmmmmm to many sharp annoying sounds... cheesy samples. Not my taste. Was interested cause of the well designed cover, but not for me. It is a bit phallic though, now that someone mentioned it.

*files under guilty pleasure*

love it. the cd-r is great too

Liking this, it's as bright and synthetic as the Hudmo album but a bit warmer on the ears. Still a fairly exhausting listen - in the best possible way

been listening again, and I have decided that this album is what the F-Zero games' music was supposed to sound like.

It's fucking exhausting to try to juke to Ultra Thizz
