really really intrigued by that track... it's really well done i think. feels weird and... fresh

 

 

I think 'intrigued' is the exact word ieafs. Sounds really, really good to me and sort of drills slowly into your brain.

 

Nice.

like the mixture of his sampling techniques mixed with synths (maybe samples of synths?) any how i like that he's progressing into new territories and not choosing a different moniker to do that.

Wow, what a stunning track, almost sounds like he flipped actress or dabrye. If the rest of them are half as good this is gonna be one hell of an album.

well said, i'm nervous that i won't like this new direction as much though. OPN has been a staple for me ever since i first heard zones

hi oldenjon welcome to the forums :)

 

i agree the new song makes me feel like i cant breathe it seriously freaks me out .... but i always like his loopy stuff like on memory vague so maybe theres more of that we will see i guess

Well, with the pre-order came a pre-release MP3 of "It's A Good Time". Sounds really good—on a similar tip to Sleep Dealer, as far as sample-friendly synth music goes. The mixing seems a bit extreme from sample to sample, but by far, I'm way more interested in this release than Returnal.

Nothing's been said publicly. Maybe he just wants to put it out on his own brand new label. No idea :shrug: . I doubt it has to do with aesthetics either. Peter Rehberg has put out albums by Bill Orcutt and others who don't really fit the general sound that the label has.

Actually the mp3 is an album sampler - with the 'it's a good time' sample dropped in repeatedly so as not to give too much away tracks-wise, I'll wager. This probably explains why you thought the mixing to be a little extreme, given that it's shoe-horning in an album's worth of sounds in six minutes rather than being just the one track. I went for the audiophile swag bundle too, I've hoovered up anything OPN-related for years so it was a no-brainer for me.

 

Oh, and a friendly hello to one and all (In watmm registration terms I'm brand new, but I've been lurking around for aeons).

oh word, i was pretty high/drunk when i listened to the track, and it definitely didn't make sense from minute to minute haha, thanks for pointing that out.
