Real Human Bean

Looking forward to their incredibly lucrative come back tour in 2 years time

Nice, yeh the sample instead of this synth is a drastic improvement. So much of getting a good mix is in the sound selection and arrangement.

Very pleasant sound. Everything's clear and has it's own place but there's still enough glue in there keeping things cohesive. What did the original sound like? I'd be interested to hear for comparison and about your process (I'm also currently revisiting some old music and re-mixing it). One constructive crit is that you can probably get away with having a bit more bass in there without muddying things up.

Wow, looks like a piss take of a parody a satire of a bad film. Hope Mr. Oizo is getting paid for the blatant rip off of Positiff

It was all backed up, stop being silly sausages

Just chiming in to agree with the above sentiment re Mr. Robot. It fell flat plenty of times in S2 & 3 but when it works it's a great show and one of the few truly creatively ambitious TV shows in recent times. Definitely worth sticking with it for the whole ride. Enjoy ?

Such sad news, he brought lots of hilarity to these parts of cyberspace. RIP Salv

A devastating loss for music. Sophie was a true original in a world full of copycats and imo the brightest electronic music talent to emerge in the 21st century. At a time when club music was dark, aggressive, serious and bereft of new ideas Sophie came along with a fresh vision, unheard sounds, a surreal sense of humour and a feeling of exuberance. I’ll never forget hearing Bipp for the first time and initially thinking I hated it but being so intrigued by it’s uniqueness of sonics and approach that I couldn’t stop listening. My brain took around 5 listens in a row to adjust and I’ve been hooked ever since. In just a few years Sophie pushed pop, dance and abstract electronic music into previously unexplored territory. They’ll never be the same again, such has been the influence of Sophie’s productions. It’s a source of joy and excitement in life to know that there are artists out there working on creations that you’ll get to experience some day and there is now an empty space where Sophie’s future music would have been. Gender identity isn’t something that I think about very much on a personal level but it can only be a good thing if a public figure’s bravery to express themselves freely breaks boundaries and leads to large amounts of people feeling more comfortable and accepting of themselves and/or others. I was listening to Product and discussing Sophie’s imagination and craft with my girlfriend when I heard the news, it felt like a bad dream then and it still does. We’ve lost one of the good ones. RIP SOPHIE, thank you for the music x

Not a bad remix but a bit tepid, you'd hope for more from Æ. Freestyle's obviously quite a big influence on Sophie's more straight up dancey stuff (Nothing More To Say/EEEHHH and the Sfire stuff) so the orch hit at the start of the remix is a nice knowing nod to that style. There's an enjoyably trippy space to this remix but what made the original stand out so much when it was released was the wiggly, plasticy sound design, the lack of drums (in a dance pop song!) and the fun positive energy at a time when UK dance music was mostly very serious and masculine. This remix does away with all of those elements and the result is a less compelling listen than the original. Nice of them to finally do it though.

Sophie's the best producer of the last decade. Making stuff that's accessible but also fresh sounding, weird and genuinely occupying it's own world isn't an easy thing to do. Bipp was a game changer when it came out 7.5 years ago. No one else is sculpting sound with such a sharp blade. There's some neat production on Charli XCX's last* album, more interesting sonically than most stuff out there: *not including the hastily made lockdown one

Looking forward to Trump ranting for 6 hours on Joe Rogan

New/old/more soon... ?

And he ends by paraphrasing Mao, "Revolution is not a garden party."...yeesh

Style over content again and again and again

Oh boy the Saturn had some great games. NiGHTS and Virtual On both beauties.

@Zooluus your images are gorgeous. I'm obsessed with fluid simulation these days:

Lovely cover art (as always) and some great moods in the sounds. Can't help but feel that he's good at invoking a vibe but that it's usually let down by the meandering structures that feel like a few sketches chucked together. Haven't been properly into one of his releases since r+7 where the structures better serviced the whole.
