A sad thing for those blessed with golden ears is that both of his full-lengths are lossy mastered. It's not something an average guy would notice

...indeed .

LEAKED

gold.

yea this is really nice

edit: ok yea, this album is fucking sick. will purchase immediately

cant believe this leaked already

gotta get in a proper mood to listen to this.

that is such a good ALBUM I LISTNEED TO IT MY SELF I AM ON THE SECOND GO AROUND NOW WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you guys

yeah, i've already listened to it a few times myself.

listening to the first track right now and this is sounding real good.

yea I've gone through this 4 times already. absolutely loving it.

im on listen number 7 and i keep wanting LYRICS to come in on looping state of mind like they do in burned out and it causes me a certain amount of grief

well not lyrics vocals duh

this is pretty good actually, who is he sampling in this? have these releases all been sample spotted

Are we listening to the same album?

Super uninspired sounding. I feel like the Field's main allure was his ability to pick good samples that can be looped and really jammed out into a hypnotizing groove. It seems like on his first album he was truly into this idea and loved digging and finding the perfect sample to build a track around. Two albums and a lot more recognition later, his style has appeared to become a formula. "It's up there" just makes me want to listen to "a paw in my face." Very bland and even sloppy sounding (sweet slow baby...wtf?). I don't hear the crispness I have come to associate with his music, and definitely not the sense of harmony and chordal progression that he was able to coax out of his samples like "good things end" and "leave it".

"Then it's white" is a pretty interesting tune.

ur wrong as a human being sorry

The tracks are very well done and catchy but I still can't tell them apart even after 2 listens.

Also, bonus Pitchfork points for the frequent indie samples.

I am not a big fan of "sweet slow baby", I ll give you that but other than that I completely disagree with you.

ya alex u must be listneing to a completely different album than the rest of us

dling, i want to hate it so max can call me stupid.

at first it sounded like more of the same without the thrill of being new, then it was apparent that he was going for a different mood, almost ambient-ish, this guy will end up doing drone or something.

i'm waiting. leaks are for fools

ill be sick of it by the time it comes out. way to go record company.

will still buy though, i love the album.
