HOLY SHIIIT

BRILLIANT.

thank you, thank you

its ok.

-_-

So good.

did any of you guys listen to the album more than say, five times? cos i didn't. i am starting to go off this sound too, the melodies are always nice but it's shit club music.

favorite dude of the year turns favorite song of the year into slow motion house jam of the year

OTM

ive listened to this album more than anything else this year tbh

I haven't listened to it in a little while but I listened to it way more than five times before I took a break from it

ditto. i feel another talabot phase coming on, actually

seeing him DJ in a few weeks, very excited

feel like this album is very prime Autumn vibes

He's a good live DJ.

oncoming autumn vibes but while the light and heat of summer are still in the air, is what i'm thinking

also the remix is excellent obv, and i say this as someone who found the chairlift original super boring

i was going to see john talabot until the xx album came out and was boring (they are touring together)

anyone know if there's an unofficial comp of his remixes/pre-fin stuff anywhere

shit club music

funny, the criticism i would've made is that it's a hair's breadth from not being club music at all, it's coffee-table house

i think that's why i like it

At this point criticising stuff as coffee-table house seems a bit pointless, all of us have coffee-table house skeletons in our closet.

I love his stuff! I'm getting older, you know.

Yeah I prefer "shit club music" to "coffee table house" as a criticism anyway!

My question about how much people listened to this wasn't just a rhetorical attack btw, I just genuinely have got no real further joy from it, beyond the first week. I am settling on the idea that I need physicality to house music or it doesn't really work for me, a lot of my buzz with it is connected to exercise lately!

But I feel like I hear better stuff in this vein on Beats In Space all the time.

Good dj tho I agree.

LG otm about this album

£5 in Urban Outfitters on CD.

Whoa, this mix is ***really good***, who knew???

seeing him tonight as support for xx in a carling academy style venue. has anyone seen him play this kind of show? what to expect? also, how do you pronounce his name? "talabow"?

His live set was nice, basically the album with a different track list. Him and Pional standing behind keyboards, triggering stuff and singing. I'm probably underrating it but I'm comparing it to seeing him dj, which was the best set I've heard all year.

er, "the album with a different track order"

yeah that was basically it. sounded great, but struggled a bit with the crowd tbh via insane suburban venue (~5k capacity, and licensing meant his set began at 8pm)

Feeling this Peaking Lights remix.

Huh? That link you've got there is a bit meta.

This mix he just uploaded from 10 Days Off last July is really nice as well: https://soundcloud.com/john-talabot/jt-10-days-off
