  1. Gave this a spin three times today and it is absolutely outstanding, so many ideas and such a range between dense and delicate. Lots of wicked rhythmic stuff to keep you engaged, loads of lush melodies and ambience, and some of the best sound design I've heard in a long time. So excited to discover more with repeated listens. Agreed about early contender for AOTY.

    Awesome track, nice swing feel - could have easily been included on the original release!

    Caught them last night in London, they did a cracking rendition of Last Remembered Thing. New stuff stood up really well despite a bit of a cavernous venue.

  3. Heard this in full at a listening session in London last night - no 'beats' per se, and plays off some of the sound design techniques on ISAM, but this time with a bit more fun and melody. The longest central track was the standout, loads of interesting physical modelling/string pluck stuff with nice textures, but those looking for rhythms/beats will be disappointed.

    Looks like he's doing a Two Fingers release this year though, which will probably satisfy.

    That's quite slow BuPpuMs - Wonder if the automatic algo caught some of the tracks at half speed

     

    Very slow... =/

     

    Kind of short for an 8 year hiatus, but I imagine that's just ninjatune marketing going to milk the market with EPs and Singles that just belong on the album to begin with.  :cisfor:

     

    Might be wrong, but from that screenshot it looks like he might be releasing the album on his own label "Nomark"

  5. Ok very happy to clear this ancient question up. The album was actually named '26 remixes for cash' by Rob Mitchell RIP . He said I should name the album this after I told him how I dealt with all the remix payments.

    Every remix I did for this up until it's release I had met the representative or artist somewhere in central London and got paid in cash, so nobody would have my details or know where I lived.

    Incdentally Rob also came up with the name 'Surfing On Sine Waves' after I told him loads of people I knew grewing up in Cornwall were poser surfers and I didn't wanna hang around with them.

    Primer (2004)

    Making sense of something like Memento is a cakewalk in comparison to this... any tips? The numerous charts and wikis are almost as baffling as the film itself.

     

    Still though, very enjoyable and very well shot given the $7k budget. 7/10

     

    There's this huge timeline graph available...

    the budget was literally $7k or are you being hyperbolic?

     

    the acting was terrible but it was still a cool story/movie. 

     

    Literally $7000. Yeah acting wasn't great but the depth of the plot made up for it.

  7. maybe it's cause i had spent all day in the sun in southern spanish summer (was feeling dizzy while reading) but the Eschaton game off Infinite Jest had me laughing out loud this evening

    It wasn't the sun; that part is an absolute highlight of the book. Keep going, it's an unbelievable read, and surprisingly touching

  8. Hey can we make this thread about something other than trying to convince Stephen that OPN is good? He'll come around on his own time or not, I think we'll all survive somehow.

     

    Seeing him in Seattle on the 24th, really curious what the vibe of the show is going to be like. It could be a kaoss edge party or it could be a drone-y head nodder, either sounds good right now.

     

    Looks like he just played in London anybody catch it?

    Caught the London show, just over an hour of mostly new stuff, sounded absolutely fantastic on a big system! Crazy visuals to go with it. He did an encore of Music for Steamed Rocks. He's developed a crazy vocal processing thing that turns his voice into an insane pitch-shifted mess (a lot of what features on the album, but tastefully blended with everything else).

     

    You're in for a treat! Sadly there was no merch at the show but definitely picking this up on Friday

  9. Man, what is that BOC record?

    Joyas de la coleccion de discos vol. 1

     

    Is that Old Tunes Vol. 1 in vinyl?

    Look's like Twoism (White w/centre hole) but with a blueish filter on the photograph.
