Burial

There are still trip-hop fans?

Also if you listen to it on headphones walking the streets after dark you feel like you're in a film.

Yeah, but for me, it works best when you're walking the streets after dark and -- this is the key -- it's cold. I love the new Burial disc, but I can't listen to it unless the nighttime temperature dips into the 60s (remember, I live in balmy, humid South Florida).

There are still trip-hop fans?

Anyone who likes Burial apparently because according to deej, Burial is trip-hop.

Heh, I live in North London, pretty different. Helps if you've got a bit of run down Victorian architecture about as well.

xpost

this seems like a lot of work

Well I liked it pretty much straight away, but I fulfil all the criteria for liking it - it's basically partially about my city, and partially about recontextualising UK dance music, which I'm very interested in.

I can see the resemblance.

Yeah I don't think that's a controversial comparison at all. But I wouldn't call most fans of Burial trip-hop "fans" unless they are suddenly busting out Headz II or something.

I like the new one in small doses, but it annoys me as a whole. Should have been an EP.

I was hoping for another fake tracklist.

oh i didn't see we'd already covered it

It's on another of the million Burial threads, yeah.

I hope Burial comes out as Moby

It's just some guy. It's on his wikipedia page, I think.

"William Bevan"

so much for the mystery

why does nobody believe my 'Burial was the white guy in Babycakes' rumour?

woop i mean 3 Of A Kind (Babycakes was the song)

erk, finally listened to this (Untrue). Its horrible, like Akon on mogadon.

One Trick Pony?

Oh come ON. It's great, it really does sound like human burial. In frozen ground. It scares the piss out of people I don't like.

Burial is good but it's really not that awesome next-level thing that you have been hungering for.

^^^how I break it down to an extent

it's really not that awesome next-level thing that you have been hungering for.

But really, what is?

I downloaded the last one. Listened to it a couple of times. His DJ Kicks could be interesting though...

still dont really like the 2nd one anywhere near as the debut. the vocals on there dont really reach the 'deep' vibe theyre going for. they just sound a bit ropey.

i still have a lot of love for both albums, tbh. and while it's not the future of music or anything that second album is catchy as hell

If it sounded like The Marble Index with added bass, this'd be an A1 description. sadly not.

why are people still talking about his DJ kicks? why the hell would i want to listen to the musical tastes of someone who gets 90% of his samples form cutscenes in in metal gear solid?

i love his music though.

The Marble Index is boring! Stop trying to be cool.

word on that

yes, everyone knows desertshores is the cool choice

ah cobblers to ya. Nico would beat Burial in a scrap any day.

this is lovely, even though its from her manchester skaghead period.

because he doesn't get 90% of his samples from mgs and it would seem from interviews he has a good grounding in 'ardkore, jungle and 2step.

Reason I'm not in any way anticipating his dj kicks is because he isn't a dj.

He also samples unlistenable Ray J ballads.

2 new tracks, last Wednesday! And nobody posted this here! Shame on y'all! ;-)

:) Thanks!

Hmmm...

fourtet sucks anyway, i'm not particularly sad that i won't be getting this. anything that is that scarce is just taking the piss anyway.

why do you think four tet sucks?

wrong pedigree sherbs.

Bleep has a limited number of copies != limited edition

I thought it was only through Bleep though?

hmmm, b side sounds alright but not mindblowing. i would buy it if i didnt have to go out of my way to do so.

i don't really like four tet, but burial does it all. two great tracks. more house than dubstep.

Um

We don't really do that here.
