Have heard this amazing track in the Aeroplane mix but rediscovered via the poll. The bassline reminds me (to the point of wondering if it was sampled) of "Thieves Like Us".
― Spencer Chow, Tuesday, 2 February 2010 22:39 (fourteen years ago) link
most of the backing track (including bass) is a sample from "i want you" by gary low

Perhaps it inspired New Order...

does anyone what he sampled for the track "belong" ?
― oscar, Friday, 2 April 2010 22:53 (fourteen years ago) link
Does he only use samples? Belong sounds a lot like "Englishman in New York" to me, even the melody. But I'm not sure if he sampled it. If it's just samples, there are probably a lot of things in there.

IMO the only Chillwaver who makes anything worth listening.
― daavid, Monday, 2 May 2011 19:56 (thirteen years ago) link
I've been trying to figure out what those drums remind me of. I'm thinking maybe "Burning Down The House" but I feel like they go back some late 70's prog. This is great BTW. It also reminds me of Slowdive and Moby's "Porcelain" only much, much better.
― daavid, Tuesday, 3 May 2011 00:44 (thirteen years ago) link
I like how unchillwave the cover is for the new Washed Out. Really looking forward to hearing it!

― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Wednesday, 4 May 2011 02:47 (thirteen years ago) link
this is odd. it's a pleasant song, but much more deserving of "pretty but inconsequential" criticism than fleet foxes or whoever. reminds me in a strange, watered-down way of U2.
rototom-style drum fills are cool, and yeah, reminscent of "burning down the house", but like daavid says, they're also a prog thing, maybe a post-prog thing. like a less boomy version of that famous bit in phil collins' "in the air tonight".
― normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Wednesday, 4 May 2011 05:56 (thirteen years ago) link
i dont get 'watered down u2.' this shit is straight up 90s trip hop ish, sounds like a thievery corp album track imho

well, it only half sounds like something U2 would do melodically, in terms of the soaring vocal line vs. the whooshy synth parts. but if it were U2, the singer would be good, the beat would be a boring rhythm section, and the synth clouds would be the edge massaging sustain (or whatever).

I hear the U2 thing, kinda like one of the Unforgettable Fire b-sides. But those are like the best U2 songs ever, so cool.
