I am unsure at who this is aimed at.
Well, it's certainly not aimed at trip-hop fans because it's, um, not trip-hop.
― Kevin John Bozelka, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 20:47 (sixteen years ago) link
There are still trip-hop fans?
― Alex in SF, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:09 (sixteen years ago) link
Also if you listen to it on headphones walking the streets after dark you feel like you're in a film.
Yeah, but for me, it works best when you're walking the streets after dark and -- this is the key -- it's cold. I love the new Burial disc, but I can't listen to it unless the nighttime temperature dips into the 60s (remember, I live in balmy, humid South Florida).

Anyone who likes Burial apparently because according to deej, Burial is trip-hop.

Heh, I live in North London, pretty different. Helps if you've got a bit of run down Victorian architecture about as well.

Well I liked it pretty much straight away, but I fulfil all the criteria for liking it - it's basically partially about my city, and partially about recontextualising UK dance music, which I'm very interested in.
― chap, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:30 (sixteen years ago) link
I can see the resemblance.
― o. nate, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:32 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah I don't think that's a controversial comparison at all. But I wouldn't call most fans of Burial trip-hop "fans" unless they are suddenly busting out Headz II or something.
― Alex in SF, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 21:34 (sixteen years ago) link
I like the new one in small doses, but it annoys me as a whole. Should have been an EP.

It's on another of the million Burial threads, yeah.

I hope Burial comes out as Moby

why does nobody believe my 'Burial was the white guy in Babycakes' rumour?
― blueski, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 17:57 (fifteen years ago) link
woop i mean 3 Of A Kind (Babycakes was the song)
erk, finally listened to this (Untrue). Its horrible, like Akon on mogadon.

Oh come ON. It's great, it really does sound like human burial. In frozen ground. It scares the piss out of people I don't like.
― u s steel, Friday, 30 January 2009 03:55 (fifteen years ago) link
Burial is good but it's really not that awesome next-level thing that you have been hungering for.

I downloaded the last one. Listened to it a couple of times. His DJ Kicks could be interesting though...
― sam500, Friday, 30 January 2009 06:13 (fifteen years ago) link
still dont really like the 2nd one anywhere near as the debut. the vocals on there dont really reach the 'deep' vibe theyre going for. they just sound a bit ropey.
― uk grime faggot (titchyschneiderMk2), Friday, 30 January 2009 09:33 (fifteen years ago) link
i still have a lot of love for both albums, tbh. and while it's not the future of music or anything that second album is catchy as hell

If it sounded like The Marble Index with added bass, this'd be an A1 description. sadly not.
― tomofthenest, Friday, 30 January 2009 09:48 (fifteen years ago) link
why are people still talking about his DJ kicks? why the hell would i want to listen to the musical tastes of someone who gets 90% of his samples form cutscenes in in metal gear solid?
i love his music though.
― straightola, Friday, 30 January 2009 11:50 (fifteen years ago) link
The Marble Index is boring! Stop trying to be cool.

ah cobblers to ya. Nico would beat Burial in a scrap any day.
this is lovely, even though its from her manchester skaghead period.
― tomofthenest, Friday, 30 January 2009 13:46 (fifteen years ago) link
because he doesn't get 90% of his samples from mgs and it would seem from interviews he has a good grounding in 'ardkore, jungle and 2step.
Reason I'm not in any way anticipating his dj kicks is because he isn't a dj.
― Bone Thugs-N-Harmony ft Phil Collins (jim), Friday, 30 January 2009 13:52 (fifteen years ago) link
He also samples unlistenable Ray J ballads.

fourtet sucks anyway, i'm not particularly sad that i won't be getting this. anything that is that scarce is just taking the piss anyway.

i don't really like four tet, but burial does it all. two great tracks. more house than dubstep.
