dj matthew herbert

also part of making art is learning and failure.

Well exactly and the process of making a record is also learning and failure especially in electronic music so how could you even write it down in advance anyway? Even his record label is called Accidental.

I'm aware that that's what you're already saying, I'm just thinking out loud.

This is beyond the pale though:

£500
Herbert Listens
Matthew will listen to you, whatever you want to say or do, at a mutually agreed place (or via Skype) for 20 minutes in complete silence, plus everything up to the collectable level
📖 Pledge £500

It's certainly no potato salad.

Much as i love this one, why does it have that sleeve? its my favourite one though

today at least

That's really nice! My favourite Herbert tracks are his remix of "Sing It Back" and Dj Koze's remix of Herbert's "It's Only" (with Dani Siciliano).

Newest Herbert thing btw

what is the consensus pick on herbert here

i would say scale

other than his remixes, like for roisin etc

Scale is my favorite too, but mostly people pick earlier albums as their favs

bodily functions seems overrated to me tbh

So Now is probably my single fav. Herbert track with Deeper being my 2nd fav, so I like Around the House a bunch, but 100lbs is probably the LP i can play through without wanting to skip tracks. I think I bought Scale but never played it. Same with Score, which I believe is the album I recorded 1 word for, but I never played that one either.

100lbs easily but Bodily Functions is very good.

globus mix vol. 5

also allow 100 lbs

destroy everything else

Often hit and miss, whch is true of anyone prolific

100lbs seems obvious answer, anything rom that first run of twelves

"I Only Heard" >>>>>>

Ezio remix is top drawer

Not much love for Herbert on ILM? Or inconsistent?
I think the new album is lovely, but on 1 1/2 listens it's no Bodily Functions (which I rate higher than Around The House) and it's certainly no Goodbye Swingtime (which is an untouchable thing don't @ me).

Good to see Owen Pallett talking the good talk up there from 11 years ago, hi Owen!

I'm totally obsessed with Fantasy. Dropped it in a set over the weekend and it just lifted the vibe up a notch. One of my favorite tracks of the year.

Matthew Herbert made an album using only a horse's skeleton (and an orchestra and a computer and some other musicians)
