    @phudoshin one of the first people posting the combined stems went by “PH”, iirc you placed in some remix competitions didn’t you? When stems were handed out? Are you behind all this m8? 😂 

    Dude i don't know what a feckin stem even is... as for this usb malarky - just noise to me

    My biggest gripe is my usual now-i-got-to-design-my-own-new-releeae-t-shirt-because-warps-sucks

    I hinted at this early on in the thread, but I have it in my head that soundmurderer - todd osborn - has this as a 12".  I guess off Rich but maybe he's got the fast-track to Tom? anyone able to reach him?

     

    also had a thought - just imagien they were on the new album and this Wenderlon track was part of the archive that we didn't know about? Zero chance but hey-ho.. nice to dream

    It is a brilliant and cohesive album. I just don't get Jacquard Causeway at all. It just sticks out like a sore thumb to me. Maybe if it wasn't the longest track it would be different? I don't know. 20 years later and I still am meh about it but the rest is perfection.

     

    edit: I clearly just summoned a new BoC Instagram post. Imminence is imminent.

    Very agree with you there - its grating/jarring percussion-wise

  5. Went and had a relisten to Damogen first time in ages - nah - just too bombastic with the melodies often too screechy for my ears. Its hard work - but again, his live show of this was decent.. maybe  a mastering/sound thing? But sill i don;t enjoy the dark mood of the whole thing.. the name and vibes make me thnk "this is what Kilngons would listen to at an orgy"

     

    Ufa  - I'm a  bit more ok with than I remember.... Exstatic Shock does not get enough love.. The Metalllurgist and Drax too actually

  6. Lets give it up for the fantastic Hitsonu track.. i fucking love this tune a LOT  - very "Numbers Lucent" compared to the rest of the album.

    Its the clapps for the last section, the driving medlody and squelchy percussion,,, the supermario noises and playful jaunty narative.. Reallyt love the end as well as the melody breaks down  - quite emotional. Perfect little track

  7. Wrap ypour faces around one of the first (only?) Venus17 outings - partial set - one of his best

    "You possess the knowledge" - Tom Jenkinson

     

  8. s16 gets  generally sub-favourable rep.. but i think its a super solid output... really nails a lot of amazing melodies/percussion and mood here. A selection indeed.  Waiting for 1-15!

  9. There's the albums -  which all have their gems.. even Shoba!

     

    Then theres his live sets - expecially when he brings out the classics in betweeen the newer mayhem. The man does not hold back and while he mostly plays tracks live straightup .. when he does tweak them, slow stuff down, mess with the EQ etc, slapps a bass riff over them.... he does sit so well and deftly and I really love it when he gets the crowd going with his passionate shout-outs

  10. Had another listen to Ufa the other day... the main thing wrong i think is the hi-end day-glo sound palletr but the structure of most tracks is top pusher.. Unreal Square for example requires  a bit of effort to to get through the hig-pitch melody/screeches but the percussive breakdown makes it worth it. 4001 has amazing bass acid and pwercussion but agian its the overall sound "color" that it falls down on a smidge

    NONE of his early albums had these "issues" .. they started to creep in in Hello Everything i think... and i think BUaH they finally exited stage left

  11. I don't get the GP comparisons. This track while splendid and awesome is nowhere near the towering heights of what he did with the structure, sounds, timings, melody, noise, mayhem of the GP spastic tracks, albeit relentless and driving. To me its a continuumation of BUaH/live-set acid techno.

  12. I LOVE the first 2 but the elephantien creature in the room that nobody mentions is.....

    The end of aliens is a rip-off of the end of alien. the good ol airlock-suck-out (AvP whch i enjoy'd was the same except it was an Abyss suck-out or something)

    Not sure how else they could have done it except  maybe show the queen detach herself before docking from the dropship to the Sulacco and hitch  a ride to Earth orbit - leaving alient3 to have an earth-based-fan-loving start... maybe... anyway its moot

    Thats my only gripe

    (alien 4 I liked the first hour  - then it goes to complete shite obvs)

    i still enjoy both records but aside from Mutilation Colony (probably his best Ambient track though i do love 80 Ondula) & Kill Robok (really wish he made a few more tracks in the style of this one) they just dont have many moments that capture me

    whenever i put them on im like "wow! that is a squarepusher record alright!" ik this is a controversial opinion but i would take another Ufabulum and/or Just A Souvenir over them any day of the week Personally

    OT: does the word "dostro" mean something?

    "Kill Robok" is very special alright... bouncey ball vibes with that slappy funk Tom brings..here it is in a mix what i made
