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

could you tell him to please knock that shit the fuck off, then?

I'm sorta half-drunk, so I think I'm best-equipped to say some of the things need saying around here:

(1) ok west coast, what is it with hot girls and breaks? it rips me apart inside. these girls should be at house nights.

(2) i saw burial fucking santa claus

At the risk of sounding a bit purple (like nearly every review of his music, I mean why do some people go on a bizarre evening course type creating writing trip when it comes to this guy?), the first Burial album was a real punch in the gut and made me excited about music in general again for the first time in years. I was (and still am) completely sold on the whole future-dub-dread-dynamic, which brings me to wonder why there was so much hate for the Spaceape track, offend some fluffy idm sensibilities did it?.

Listening to it again recently I realised that my favorite tracks are the more d&b inflicted ones. Maybe I'm secretly hankering after him to either do a straight up d&b album or something more spatial and miminal like the Cyrus album (probably my favorite album of the year). I dunno, I'm just freeforming here. On Untrue he's definately running the risk of attempting to stamp his identity on other areas like UKG (which was deployed with much more subtle effect on the first album) whilst wiping out the heavy dread dynamic that made his stuff so interesting in the first place. People should cut him some slack though, he's only about 25, 26 I think and Untrue sounds to me like a teary love letter to one genre, or sub-genre, getting it off his chest and moving on.

That said, I think it's a pretty good album and demonstrates soemone coming into their own quite rapidly ("Shell of Light is especially good). Mind you, "Stairwell" (off the Kode9 Sonar mix) blows most of Untrue out of the water. Maybe that's what the ealier comment about the alledged "High-Tech darkside album" was referring to. Fuck, I hope he makes it.

Lukas so not OTM about #1 but completely OTM on #2 and #3

I'm not all about a breakz revival or anything, but enough house + breaks love hits the right spot(s) mutually.

Lukas! You can HARNESS THA HAUTENESS of that hot breakz girl in ways other than pretending you like DJ Icey, yknow.

Mackro Mackro, Thursday, 22 November 2007 18:24 (sixteen years ago) link

ugh fuck breaks girls

i remember at a RAW + mictlan show a 90 lb white girl with dreadlocks, a sublime beanie and a wifebeater yelling "YO SELECTOR, PLEASE BRING IT RUFF RUGGED AND RAW" during a breakdown

wiggiest scene ever

I'm addicted to the journey into an alternate world that I never become familiar with, that has a narcotic euphoric effect, each time I go further into the mystery.

Breaking news. A picture of Burial has been found.

The ultimate revenge.

Actually I could see Burial soundtracking a Uwe Boll movie during the creepy disco sequences.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 08:38 (sixteen years ago) link

Is that really Burial?

"It sounds straight outta 1998, when trip hop, drum n bass, and goddamn illbient were all swirling around in the air."

haha. it does. but we all love our retro culture.

Burial/Untrue are to Tricky/Photek/Urban Tribe what early-mid '80s ECM albums are to In a Silent Way/Bitches Brew/Weather Report

Andy K, Saturday, 24 November 2007 15:16 (sixteen years ago) link

I can't tell because of the nasal disguise. Why don't you mail that picture to kode9 and ask him? (Xxpost)

least OTM analogy ever.

Actually you just confirmed its OTMness beyond all description. We thank you.

yeah because burial is so clean and overproduced just like ECM records are. it is spot on if you have no ears and no brain. which i guess sums up most of ilx. good point!

pipecock, Saturday, 24 November 2007 17:31 (sixteen years ago) link

I know Andy K. Andy K. is a friend of mine. You, sir, are no Andy K.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 24 November 2007 17:50 (sixteen years ago) link

The admittedly not-thought-out and over-generalized analogy has much more to do with chronology than production values. The basic roots, the time between releases, and that some of the ECM releases had picked up on other things along the line, just as there were developments from Maxinquaye through Burial. (Which makes Untrue = Power Spot [but not quite]?)

Andy K, Saturday, 24 November 2007 18:21 (sixteen years ago) link

StanM: the nasal disguise is too good and would probably fool kode9 himself.

I'm never going to play live +
awesome publicist =
it's too fuckin' easy

Mackro Mackro, Saturday, 24 November 2007 19:32 (sixteen years ago) link

The only reason all these big IDM name guys from the late 90s onward ultimately got away with the "too shy to play out (except for this one time and I want mad cash) + awesome publicist" thing is because they occasionally made compelling music.

dubstep is basically the trip hop to grimes hip hop.

"dubstep is basically the trip hop to grimes hip hop."

and what makes that a somewhat irrelevant comment is that, alongside bassline, they are both subgenres of uk garage.

"there are so many opinions in this thread, and so many of them are wrong"

you're so right.

...where does 2step fit into your neat little summation or the breakstep to dubstep tip from nu skool breaks. Where also does tearout, the big brother of bassline also out of nu skool breaks come in or how about 4x4 in relation to house ???

still thinking linear huh ???

how about dubstep is 'roots' to reggaes 'dancehall'...

are you martin clark? what a literal reading of my (pretty obvious, and not exactly new) analogy.

2 step was the dominant type of ukg dickhed

nu skool breaks had minimal relation to ukg except sounding a bit like breakstep

"what a literal reading of my (pretty obvious, and not exactly new) analogy."

tell me about it bruv!

If Burial made a modern-day Power Spot that would be quite an achievement!
