London 03.06.17 (Field Day LP)

This definitely isn't MFM and I'm guessing that whatever that 33 day countdown is leading us to, this isn't it. There's some really good stuff here, but I wouldn't call it a new proper album. The longest track is 4:00 or so. This seems like some odds and ends, some of which are very nice. Track 5 is an ambient little thing with birds in the background. Track 11 sounds like it could be a SAW II reject. Track 6 is the track he's been teasing along with the Weirdcore video effects - a frustratingly short version.

This is a proper album as far as I'm concerned. Fucking most incredible first listen I've had in years. 

So first of all no discussion of linking out rips or anything like that.

But otherwise yay I don't have this, but I heard it and it's pretty interesting.

Reupped this reddit pic because it's the only decent one I can find.

Side A: 5 tracks

Side B: 6 tracks

Give me times and such, and I'll update here. 

did he play track 4? think i heared it in his dj set

I'm three tracks in and it's great

Oh well shit there wasn't a thread for this when I started it now there's one pls delete 

He only pressed like 500 or so of these right? Congrats to the WATMMers who have this rare diamond in their collection. I'm envious. Gonna close my eyes and bask in this magick again.

The rarity of the Houston and Field Day vinyls don't hurt so bad any more after listening to this. What a gift! Thanks Rich.

Amazing record. I couldn't believe when I heard that it was an 11 track EP. Loving every track on the record. Thank you Daddy Richie.

I'm hoping that whatever gets released in July has the Primavera track on it.

that first track is a hell of good first impression! Now for the speculation as to when these babies were produced. I'm leaning towards fairly recently. Sounds very.. clean in a way. experimental as fuck.. super melodic too. 

Yeah it's all pretty great. But at the same time, it sounds a bit like incomplete thoughts. 

This is incredible. B3 is still my favorite, but A5 and B6 are up there too. Unbelievable choons, can't believe this is real.

I really like the different approaches he takes from LP to LP. Sitting still stylistically is not the right way to go about making music.

It's also interesting how different it is while still adhering to many of the same types of sounds.

I wonder how old these tracks are. It sounds like his recent stuff in terms of sound quality, but stylistically some of it sounds like he could have made it back in the 90s. Some of it sounds like newish ground for him.

It reminds me of sega genesis FMing which isn't a bad thing. It also reminds me of that one track 't08+4'

i love this thing, insta replay

Anyone else getting a tape vibe out of these recordings?

God damn it I can't figure out where A3's melody is from. It's a Syro or Drukqs track.

A5 is a lovely warbly little piece of magic.

A1 and A2 are good.

A5 sounds like it was recorded to tape of some sort, almost certainly imo but I'm no pro.

thanks my dude

Yes. It has a very warm sound to it. Not sure if that's because it was recorded to tape or because the source is vinyl.

a5 sounds like recorded to tape

I would like to hear this

maybe some songtitles will show up if uploaded to upoop

warp knows the drill by now

Verdict: quite good
