Sounds like a tappan chef going at it.

captivating campaign

Picked up #2 today, sounds great.

Love these so far. Got the third on order, can't imagine where it's going to go.

Anyone sacrifice a needle and try to play the grooves on the label of Side B of Testpressing 2?

So far I've loved 50% of the tracks on this Testpressing series, and liked the other 50%

Dysology, though, is easily one of the most killer tracks they've produced so far.

me neither and neither do they by the sounds of it, like the poster above me there said about 50/50 for me too, hit and miss.

yea they sound good, 1 or 2 tracks stick, but most of its done and done, i've loads of records here with similar stuff.

its been good fun, now back to work lads, we know it was just a test.

listened to these again today and yea thats definitely the best of the 6 test pressing tracks so far for me. the sound of the snare cracking on this is raw as hell.

b-side is a let down, decent house vibe but i've heard it gazillions. sounds like they're having fun with it though.

Nice to see Demdike Stare explore some interesting grounds again after their pretty boring Elemental-phase...

Digital versions now up on Boomkat!

Yeah just gone for the FLAC's as well- bargin for 6 quid! Enjoying these a lot more than the Elemental stuff- and reminding me what I loved about them from the Tryptych release.

Demdike Stare’s live score for Häxan: Witchcraft Through The Ages will be performed at London’s BFI on 13 December.

fuuuuuuuuu wish i was in london

last time i saw them do a 'live' scoring it sounded like they were just playing full audio tracks and already released material unaltered from an Abelton Live session. Kinda more like a DJ set, i didn't understand the point of 'scoring' a movie if it was material they've already made and not done in real-time. You honestly didn't miss much..

ah okay. that actually makes me feel better.

Yeah they didnt impress me the two times i saw them "live" either...

i saw them 3 separate times and in all of them it just sounded like they did a DJ set of their own tracks, some new stuff in the last two sets I saw them play. unsolicited commentary: Def need some seasoning time to develop an effective live-act

Nebraska, have you ever checked out Contagious Orgasm? Their stuff from the late 90s and before is pretty reminiscent of Demdike stare minus some of the dubbier bassy Orb elements.

yes. i think i have (or had at one point) one or two of their records. thanks for mentioning them again though. it's one of those things i hear then i go "oh yeah. that's interesting" but never go back to again

#4 is out now. still on good form if the samples are anything to go by!
