""flaws in the reception"

-- moonship journey to baja"

there are some serious flaws in your reception of basically everything from what i can tell, i guess it shouldnt be surprising that it would extend to music.

You are a bot, right?

Or you can't actually think of anything more sophisticated than balls and shit because you're a backward farmhand?

The source of that pic is far more serious and completely out of context (just based on the pic name), despite it being used by a blogger to just go "pitchfork be dry lol"

"The sound that I’m focused on is more, you know, when you come out of a club and there’s that echo in your head of the music you just heard…I love that music, but I can’t make that club sort of stuff…but I can try and make the afterglow of that music."]

so i put this on again today in honor of the thread and seriously it just sounds like vintage 2step w/ an extra layer of distortion and crackle. and some woodblocks, whoo. i can't believe we had this enormous meltdown over such an ordinary album (pretty, even very pretty, but very pretty is par for the course for most 00-01 2step).

moonship journey to baja, Wednesday, 21 November 2007 23:53 (sixteen years ago) link

but on second look tis a fake exhaust pipe.

whatever, Wednesday, 21 November 2007 23:54 (sixteen years ago) link

I reckon the Cyrus album is better than Untrue.

yeah i'm feeling it eh, but only in a mashup style with some other shit over the top otherwise it just sounds underdone, like wheres the rest of it ???

it sounds very now, in relation to the "scene" whereas burial is either on some future shit or past shit...

...like if burial had of come out about 2001 it would have been massive if only to counter the light fluffiness of 2 step back then and maybe got a bit more mileage out of the genre

actually nah, on second thought, theres not much future in burials music which is also why no one really want to go down that particular cul de sac...

...if anything he's limited himself to his trademark sound so you pretty much know what to expect in the future from him

of course if he came out and went mainstream it would give him more scope but if i were him i'd just create another entity for anything too radically different and keep burial underground ...

what do people think of the skull disco comp?

...not enuff cowbell !!!

pollywog, Thursday, 22 November 2007 00:31 (sixteen years ago) link

I just heard a couple burial tracks for the first time and I'm really surprised at how much people are going ape for this. It sounds straight outta 1998, when trip hop, drum n bass, and goddamn illbient were all swirling around in the air. I'm not sure why, ten years later, it's suddenly interesting.

pgwp, Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:13 (sixteen years ago) link

pollywog, Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:24 (sixteen years ago) link

this would actually go really great with some illbient

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:50 (sixteen years ago) link

what do people think of the skull disco comp?

It's a little same-y over the course of a full disc, but taken in small doses, I think it's fairly astounding. In some ways, it's even creepier and more evil sounding than Untrue. And the standout track -- Blood On My Hands -- is, in many ways, the most daring and edgy work of art I've seen or heard about 09.11 (both the original and the 18 minute Villalobos version).(n.1)

__________________________
(n.1) To be clear, the fact that it's daring or edgy doesn't make it morally defensible. If I'm hearing it right, the song is about a political radical's contemporaneous reaction to the 09.11 attacks. The narrorator doesn't sound shocked or sad or troubled or morally conflicted; the attacks don't make him re-evaluate his radicalism. Instead, his droning lyric -- "When I see the towers fall . . . fall . . . fall . . . fall" -- sounds removed and sinister.

Anyway, maybe that's just what I'm hearing. It's also possible the song is written from a different perspective, one more sympathetic to 09.11's victims. It just doesn't sound like that to my ears, and there is another song on the disc called "Hamas Rules," and so forth. Still, a very powerful piece, which is even more striking to me inasmuch as it's the only art I've seen about the actual 09.11 incident (as opposed to the broader "Global War on Terrorism" or the Iraq War) that isn't very obviously pro-American and patriotic.

Daniel, Esq., Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:51 (sixteen years ago) link

Gah. Every time I re-read something I've posted, I cringe at how stupid it sounds. My apologies. Also, FWIW, I'm Jewish and not the least bit sympathetic to the 09.11 terrorists.

Daniel, Esq., Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:55 (sixteen years ago) link

seems those no life uber geeks over at dissensus still cant stop talking about me even though i been banned from there for an age...

...hahaha suck balls guys. Don't make me spam your wack board

living/being in NZ and only having music as a therapeutic hobby is about as good as it gets...

...ask Mala, he wants to move here cos us polynesians are just so fucking cool and laid back

so while those dissensus clowns keep talking about it, codifying and gentrifying it , i'll just keep it real and make/do/say whatever the fuck i like just cos i can and don't you fuckers wish you could too...

...as for my obsession with breaks ???... fuck yeah it's all about breakbeats. Ask oris jay or zed bias. I started out as B boy, now can you guess what the B stood for ??? and what if anything is jungle but breakbeat culture. try double timing a 70 bpm halfstep beat and see what that gets ya ???

ill advised racially motivated name ???... fuck yeah, i cant stand poxy elitist pommy wankers and pilled out nu age cracka ass american crackas most of which find dissensus as a haven. Those cunts can only wish they were coloured.

piss poor self promotion ???... fuck yeah haha, if only i wanted to be taken seriously as a muso or artist, but the thing is i got so much going on in my life i just cant dedicate full time to it. If i did i'd show alot of peoples lame noodlings up as, well lame noodlings i suppose

...as for burial. I do like the hyperdub grafikery and a couple of tunes depending how blazed i am and where i am but the boxcutter album is better WAY BETTER

pollywog, Thursday, 22 November 2007 01:57 (sixteen years ago) link

I'd take Enigma's "The Sadeness" over anything by Burial. And my feelings on "The Sadeness" are well documented on ILM.

a jewish apologist...am I the only one who finds that funny ???

I try to live by a code of no apologies, no thank yous and no excuses

...you really shouldn't give a toss what or how stupid anything you say on the net cos is there is always something and someone stupider...heh

so what if a bunch of people you will probabaly never meet nor give the time of day to in real life think you're common ???

...who the fuck you trying to impress ???

btw i wonder if there isn't always a certain need people have, for an album like this (ghost cannibalization of older surer musics, at a sort of above the merry-go-round of modernity remove LET'S SAY) at this exact stage of every decade? yknow, this random desultory phase where people dont know what the big optimistic groundswell is and aren't finding themselves getting caught up in anything. it just seems so much like the clamour about pole all over again, from where i'm sitting.

or maybe the question should be not that the need exists, but that the one album always seems to get made? i wonder what the 80s equivalent was, if there was one. perhaps people werent yet po-mo enough by that point.

haha. and to think that i thought this place was better than that one.

martin clark in particular needs to step off my jock. i remember him arguing around march 06 about burial's first (as of then not yet released) album being on vinyl:

"Since Burial's drums aren't in time (they're hand built in Soundforge and not sequenced), beatmixing from vinyl is fairly pointless ...!"

"There's gonna be no vinyl release. given the unsequenced drum structure and high cost of vinyl, there's no point really"

"tom

perhaps you'd care to fund the vinyl pressing personally then? ;)"

if only i wasnt a broke student, i should have taken him up on that offer and cleaned house. even the people who are supposed to know what is up with this music don't know shit. suckers.

I am kind of amused, however, that this implies that you are getting violated by my dad.
