Kona Triangle is incredible and I would give anything to hear more of this project.

The Kona Triangle album was excellent. Keaver and Brause I never got along with (I'm assuming there was only the one record but I may be wrong), it may be time to revisit that. And I wonder if Matt Cutler will ever return to play in Nottingham? Still loving Levitate, btw.

awesome video for Backtail was heavy. also for 1 sec i thought Actress is in it (around 4:20)

ah terrible video for a lovely track - depressing visually

ye doesnt fit the tone of the track at all imo

it reminds of ~2000 when a good number of "idm tracks" getting a music video would be dark and gritty and in the vein of chris cunningham simply cos dark and gritty and in the visual style of chris cunninghman went hand in hand with "idm track" regardless of whether or not the track called for it.

 

i dnno. is weird. the track is so lussssh nd chil.

When I listen to Lone, I want to escape into a land of lushness - not gangland bullshit

And I was just thinking I needed some more summer music. The timing of this couldn't be better.

Yeah this is more along the lines of my kind of lush Lone visuals

I think the video suits it perfectly, lairy as fuck.

First few listens and I'm digging this, esp. since Galaxy Garden was great and Reality Testing was so underwhelming. And yeah that was really annoying to have a single out for almost a year only to include both tracks on an album - kids, don't do this!

 

Also, Lone did a really good guest mix on Solid Steel the other week (downloadable):

Listened to this a couple times now. Slightly underwhelmed but probably just because I've been rinsing the new Autechre so hard.

 

There's definitely some pretty bare influences here. Orbital's "Lush" is probably the most obvious but I'm also hearing some Freescha/Fieldtriqp style drippy leads, and some B12 pads. Even getting some Aphex vibes here and there. But, yeah, good summer tunes, and there's a couple particularly good tracks on here.

 

It feels really short, too though, again maybe just coming from the new Autechre.

damn

really different then his previous work. Always kinda liked Lone but thought he was somehow doing always the same kinda track over and over.

 

this is awesome though and very different

Video doesn't sit right on initial viewing which could be considered a good thing because it insights a dialogue. Who was that supposed to be on the bed at the end?

not feeling the video here either, but the album is a stunner, it rarely left my side this past weekend.

A great album for sure. It was released towards the tail end of when myspace was still relevant and there were a couple of tracks featured on the Kona Triangle page that never made it to the final album, which is a shame as one of them in particular was absolutely gorgeous (Kona 14, you can listen to the track here - though it might only be a sample given its brevity, who knows - at https://myspace.com/konatriangle (if you can't get the audio to play open the page on Microsoft edge as it works for me there and not on Chrome).

Bit of a Boccer melody going on in Sleepwalkers

Yeah I really dug this release because he's starting to get out of his comfort zone a bit more in terms of timbres and different synths while still not completely abandoning his "trademark" sound. Besides the influences mentioned already I feel like this is the most d'n'b sounding album too, not just rave-y hip-house but more like good looking records era dnb. "Alpha Wheel" especially.

dissapointed

Best album yet imo from the man .

i think this, Galaxy Garden and Lemurian are the 3 essential Lone albums at the moment. Edited June 6, 2016 by QQQ

No Emerald Fantasy Tracks?? I'd rate that one way above Galaxy Garden personally.

i friggin love Emerald Fantasy Tracks. Ecstasy & Friends too, but those albums are kind of refinements of what he's done before, but the above 3 albums are where he really steps it up in some way or another and where he does something more.
