From the moment the new single started it was instant chills. His style is so consistently good, warm and enveloping. "Paradise Circus (remix)" is one of the most harrowing songs ever.

Burial's remix of Goldie's "Inner City Life" (release date April 22)

I like how Burial dropped one of the best releases of the decade (Rival Dealer EP) before saying PEACE OUT IMMA play Dark Souls... forever apparently.

Except that he just released the Young Death/Nightmarket EP last fall?
― Austin, Friday, 21 April 2017 06:02 (six years ago) link
Maybe he's still working on beating Dark Souls. He's this close to reaching the final boss.

I don't know, 'Beachfires' is pretty good as an ambient thing.
But yeah, otherwise, these are some of his least captivating things.

i think "beachfires" is really cool, it sounds vaguely like it's telling a story to me, there's just a little more going on in the structure.. but not in an over the top clichedwaaambient way

I think this is good. Somebody commission him to do the dark souls soundtrack

Yeah, I thought those two newest tracks were at least decent. A lot more "beaty" than everything else he's done in the past year.
He's been surprisingly prolific over the last twelve months. To recap, the past year we've heard:

"claustro" has to be his best track since rival dealer
― ufo, Thursday, 30 May 2019 13:30 (four years ago) link
so, if you take all of his tracks released under just burial post-rival dealer, you can make a pretty damn good full length. we're talking 2015-present basically.
chronologically, the songs are:
temple sleeperyoung deathnightmarketsubtemplebeach firespre dawnindoorsrodentclaustrostate forest
that he staggered the release of this material over the course of several years i think lessened its collective impact, unfortunately. but if you take this stuff in as the proper full length follow-up to untrue, it's a pretty bold step (forward?).
also totally with ufo on 'claustro' being an absolute jam and one of his best.
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Tuesday, 15 October 2019 17:56 (four years ago) link
so the reason for this revive is because i've been listening to a playlist of just this tracklist and it's really pretty good. the sequence this way is pretty wild. hooks you up with a dope beat up front with 'temple sleeper' but then uses the hard transitions on 'young death' and 'nightmarket' to go way off into experimental (arguably non-musical) territory until 'predawn' gets back into beatier songs. the transition from 'indoors' into 'rodent' into 'claustro' is very epic and good. 'state forest' as the closer is so satisfying after what preceded it.
burial is good fall music, btw.
― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Wednesday, 16 October 2019 01:29 (four years ago) link
'Street Halo' through 'Rival Dealer' probably amounts to my favourite album-or-two worth of Burial--equivalent to a 3rd and 4th LP.
The work post'Rival' has felt a little wispy and indistinct--but I'll try queuing it up as a body.
― Soundslike, Wednesday, 16 October 2019 02:17 (four years ago) link
yeah the 2011-2013 releases from Street Halo to Rival Dealer are absolutely his best work (especially Rival Dealer which is absolutely transcendent) and have far surpassed Untrue for me. the Massive Attack remix EP from that period is unfairly overlooked too
his work since has been pretty hit and miss unfortunately. the ambient pieces have been pleasant enough but relatively underwhelming and while i love "claustro", the other more beat-driven tracks he's released over the past few years haven't done much for me.
