Finally gave Untrue a try (the previous one didn't really click with me and this thread put me off a bit) and fuck all the haters this is ten times better than Burial. Especially because it is so 'samey' and monolithic (which seems to be the main criticism against it).

"It's a fairly common US thing to class all electronic music as 'techno', I've noticed."

We're provincial that way.

The vocals are the BEST PART. The beats are fairly pedestrian 2-steppy clanks, that circulate on repeat across a number of tracks, like some broken machine flailing in vain.

The general atmosphere on the first one is way more diverse and compelling, which leaves the vox on the second being the only aspect that fascinates me.

The vox were overdone: Too high in the mix, and triggered too often. The drums are bad on this album, too, though. Maybe I just don't like it!

That kind of strikes me as not being at all legit. But I have a tendency for being wrong.

OTM

StanM, Saturday, 21 June 2008 23:59 (fifteen years ago) link

I actually prefer the one with Eno, Kraftwerk, Rother, a Tribe Called Quest, Mary J Blige, Amon Tobin, etc. etc.

Marius J. Blige, exposed!

StanM, Sunday, 22 June 2008 10:06 (fifteen years ago) link

the burial tracklist would have to be just all old rave and hardcore. with some old school DnB in it.

was just reading an old interview with him in the wire, and thats pretty much how he rolls.

here'tis

Hamildan, Sunday, 22 June 2008 10:24 (fifteen years ago) link

If it is the real deal then it's great that Stairwell is finally seeing the light of day. That one tune stamps on most of his last album. Would be cool to have this on unmixed vinyl.

Discordian, Sunday, 22 June 2008 11:57 (fifteen years ago) link

It is fake.

jim, Sunday, 22 June 2008 19:09 (fifteen years ago) link

aha! So there's a real one somewhere, then?

StanM, Sunday, 22 June 2008 19:36 (fifteen years ago) link

Teebee - daywalker (burial remix)

Ooooh I neeeed to hear this. Badly.

stevienixed, Sunday, 22 June 2008 19:37 (fifteen years ago) link

aha! So there's a real one somewhere, then?
Alas no, but Kode 9 posted the concise but fairly unambiguous answer "NO" when it was posted on the dubstepforum.

jim, Sunday, 22 June 2008 19:45 (fifteen years ago) link

I want to hear his FSOL remixes.

chap, Sunday, 22 June 2008 19:47 (fifteen years ago) link

maybe it was "nooooooooooooooooooo" as in "noooooooooooooooooooooo, i cant believe the tracklisting leaked"

Kode Vader.

eight months pass...

anyone know anything more about this project:

BURIAL vs MASSIVE ATTACK
TBA [HELIGOLAND REMIXED]
(VIRGIN, expected Summer)

It's no secret that Burial has been commissioned to remix Massive Attack's recent Heligoland LP in full. If the project is completed on schedule, it should be out in time for 2011's post-summer comedown.

it was a secret to me, at least.

heard about it long ago. will never happen. where is the dj kicks?

brotherlovesdub, Tuesday, 4 January 2011 23:43 (thirteen years ago) link

woah!

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 10 October 2011 14:02 (twelve years ago) link

no way

I'm guessing this is a few tracks remixed or a collaboration. If this is actually that remix album idea made real, I'll eat my hat.

(gets out salt and pepper)

( ) (mh), Monday, 10 October 2011 15:20 (twelve years ago) link

it's a two-song single, but each song is about 12 minutes. and it's less a rework than a total overhaul.

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 10 October 2011 16:09 (twelve years ago) link

"Both tracks exclusive to this limited edition"

StanM, Monday, 10 October 2011 16:15 (twelve years ago) link

I don't believe that, tbqh.

StanM, Monday, 10 October 2011 16:15 (twelve years ago) link

it's ... interesting. probably works well if you're walking around in the early-morning hours, a little hazy and disoriented. all mood, no hook. you can generally say that about burial, but it isn't true, especially on his newer material (e.g., the collaborations with four-tet and the street halo EP).

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 10 October 2011 16:29 (twelve years ago) link

oh hey I'd like this but 25 pounds probably not going to happen

this is going to be on discogs for 100 in two weeks, right?

( ) (mh), Monday, 10 October 2011 18:27 (twelve years ago) link

not a one-trick pony. see, e.g., the stuff i mentioned above (the four-tet collaboration; street halo EP, which -- far from being totally downcast, moody affairs -- is music with a beat, that you can play in the summer sun). this track, however, moves back toward bleak soundscapes.

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 10 October 2011 18:36 (twelve years ago) link

I was thinking, what with the work with Jamie Woon, that Burial was moving towards making genuine SONGS. "Fostercare" and "NYC" are almost recognizable ballads, Imo. This is a surprise. It's ok... a bit thin...

Mercer Finn, Monday, 10 October 2011 19:14 (twelve years ago) link

i wouldn't take it as strong evidence either way. it's a one-off project, apparently.

and you're right. overall, the recent trend for burial is toward more songs.

Daniel, Esq., Monday, 10 October 2011 19:20 (twelve years ago) link

i ordered two copies. i wish burial would use a different sound palette.

brotherlovesdub, Monday, 10 October 2011 19:41 (twelve years ago) link

four weeks pass...

$480 on Ebay already

StanM, Tuesday, 8 November 2011 18:08 (twelve years ago) link

brotherlovesdub, Tuesday, 8 November 2011 18:13 (twelve years ago) link

got my copy of this in the mail today. it's pretty great, but i'm thinking of selling it...
