Playing the leak, first two songs OMG! This is going to be incredible

it has a little bit more a cohesion and rigidity to it that Rooms did not have. The slower songs are interesting. Can't say it's better than rooms yet, as it sounds remarkably similar and just perhaps a little more poppy. It also has a much more classic jungle feel to it, with a lot of soul-pride breaks being used. Really good album though *crosses fingers that Syndrone influences appear on next album*

This leaked?

Wow, gunshotta is a tune.

Yeah that's pretty great

center your love is so fresh

Apparently "Rise N Fall" has been on youtube since December from a Mary Anne Hobbs broadcast. Never knew that.

This track fucking glows, so good.

that's an amazon track

Think I'm gonna wait this out til the release, I've listened to Eyesdontlie a few times is all. Any word on the official side yet?

The whole thing is pretty amaze-ballz in general.

So what does this sound like?

sexy ambience. big bass. jittery drums. lush pads. raggamuffins toastin mad breakz. chipmunks crooning in space. melancholy junglist. soulful r'n'b cp30 electric piano. boc via lone via machinedrum melodies. strummin acoustic guitars. urban middle schools. burial-school vinyl cracklescapes.

Will listen soon, I can't stand being behind in album discussion threads.

been on constant rotation since I got it. I think overall it may be a stronger album if we were to rate it on album alone. It feels less restrained but at the same time more focused and refining the similar sound from Rooms.
There is maybe only 1 song on here I don't really enjoy, which is a better 'miss' ratio than Rooms. However there isn't a song that has knocked 'Now U Know Tha Deal 4 Real' off it's pedestal

Machinedrum is a mustacheo'd magician of melody, yo.

Gunshotta without a doubt, the vocals in which are the best he's done yet

this is good as hell. Much better then room(s), but I was never the biggest fan of rooms

damn!

Room(s) was brilliant. Don't 1 2 Lose U is a favorite off this new lp.. Machinedrum has some really soulful tracks, loving his output recently

hoping he keeps it up, i really dig this one. moody, dynamic, yes

My favorite Sepalcure track by far was Love Pressure

Well... entertaining LP for sure. But it feels not close as serious and mind-bending like Room(s) for me. Combined with all his talk about the concept of a (dytopian) city and listenting to this LP as a whole I feel a little uninspired from the whole thing.

Whats this have to do with machinedrum?

Oh right. Sorry I see now.

Well I wholeheartedly agree with Travis.

because machinedrum is describing how he'd like someone to punch Zomby in the balls for him, i don't know i thought it was funny. sorry to have confused you?

Good album. I liked Rooms better but eh, who cares, this is still good listening.
