telephasic workshop's vocal chops are *chefs kiss*
Couldn't say it better myself. And I'm not convinced the live version isn't the better of the two. Life changing track, and I'm being sincere.

Pretty good fake!

My desert island album, even though depending on the day I think I like Geogaddi more. I never get tired of listening to it. Telephasic Workshop changed me. Smokes Quantity might be their most underrated track imo.
What more can be said that hasn't already been said? It should be in any music fans top 20 of all time. It should be in any electronic music fans top 5.

Blizzards was the pinnacle fake for me; saw him perform live twice with tracks from that album and it slayed. Not convinced by this album yet - feels pretty straight cut. Solid fake, but I like the bombastic adventurous noises of Blizzards. Ill give it time.
thats fair! Blizzards was one of my fave albums of 2020, it knocked me out the first time i heard it.

I would love to preorder it directly from Bleep but the registered shipping is really high, there is also the unregistered option at 10.54 dls only but the registered is 64.75dls!!!
it could take weeks or months to appear in my local amazon
Godamn!!

Really pretty album, quite a bit different than Blizzards. Feeling pretty spoiled that we’ve gotten new Holden, Fake. Paradinas, and VHS Head albums within the past 2 weeks.

This album is amazing, of course he nailed an ambient album. So much good music this month! I’m in love with Eire in particular. Never stop making music, Mike.

Had this on repeat all day. One of my favourite artists. Totally unique style. Been away too long, (actually far too long) and this might be the problem for me. I think the first five pieces really feel like going through the motions - I felt the opening track was quite disappointing for such a long time away. First few tracks are unmemorable, IMO.
However, from Strange Tangents onwards, it's just utter gold. Or maybe Trademark Ribbons of...
Solid 8/10.
Generally agree w Fumi here but I think Skinflex is a standout.
let’s all be clear about Paradise Drive though - it’s a fucking jam and a half

This album is amazing...probably my AOTY so far. It has Inheritors vibes but flows so much better. This is definitely meant to be listened to as an album. So lush! Lots of dubby-tribal vibes throughout. Holden is kinda like Vibert to me - I wouldn't call myself the biggest fan out there, but godamn I'm so glad to grow up in an era where he's making music.
I'll be listening to this for a while.

The most complete version of Orbus Terrarum is actually the 12'' - especially in comparison to the UK CD which is missing both the intro to Oxbow Lakes and the last section of Slug Dub (the US CD is just missing the Oxbow Lakes intro)
I did not know this!?!?
-
I realize Orb albums are best formatted for CD but I’d kill for a vinyl repress of their early to mid 90s output. Orbus Terrarum in particular.

Also remembering he's the writer and co-producer of Sasha's ''Boileroom'' :
I don’t think this album ever got the credit it deserved tbh. Great track

Yes! Yes!!!

I think I posted this when Monsters came up but Orbital built up so much credibility with me by being a gateway group into electronica. The Brown Album and In Sides in particular. They are and will always be legends to me.
The newer stuff is far better than it has any business being. Whether it’s corny, dad-tronica, bland, or whatever they really do stick to what they do well. I think in large part we’ve just grown out of it.
All that being said I really enjoy this record. I love the Sleaford Mods track I think in large part because the lyrics and energy resonate with me. The drum and bass track is surprisingly good! I do not care for the last two tracks at all. Better than Monsters, nowhere near their 90s output but it doesn’t have to be. Love Orbital with all my heart.

Will BOC Release A New Album?
in Boards of Canada

Based on absolutely zero evidence, I think we get at least an announcement by end of September. I selfishly really want/need another fall album so that’s probably driving the comment. They’re not going out on a remix. Just living their lives, tunes will come eventually.
