Never listened to JS material, might have to dive into it

[Omikron 12]

Just from the track names I can already tell this is going to be top quality material

[BaggerMcGuirk 93]

This is very good.  It feels like a mix of Lunatic Harness and Makesaracket.  

[NI64 81]

Wow, samples sounds great. Can't wait to get into this one. Makesaracket has always been one of his top contenders for me. 

Mike's giving Aphex a run for his money in terms of volume of output though, at least throughout the 90's. Good lord, I had no idea he recorded that much music! 

[Hugh Mughnus 1512]

I've not had a chance to listen yet, hope to queue it up tonight. 

 

Any thoughts yet? Classic slaz?

[BaggerMcGuirk 93]

The first half has some excellent stuff on it.  I need to give the latter half another go, but overall it's really good.  Not my favorite Slaz, but I'm very happy with it.

I remember reading that Paradinas had a myriad of tracks recorded on Betamax video cassettes and that he sent a huge amount of 90 minute tapes full of them to RePHLeX before Tango N' Vectif and Bluff Limbo were released.

Finally got around to listening to this (last Sunday). Love it, agree with @BaggerMcGuirkit reminded my a lot of Lunatic Harness vs Makesaracket. Solid Slaz album, nothing here sounds like B sides or anything! Need to get another couple listens in though.

lol I take it this is your first slazenger release? =/

Or have you been following the tracks/lore etc for the last 27 years? I don't want to make any assumptions on your age or anything. But the slaz releases have always had some intentional cheeze.

 Basically the best track of all time (except trail quest and hector's house which were released under u-ziq of course)

Oh lol that could be it then! Yeah the slaz releases are intentionally like that. I love it. It’s like watching a 70s or 80s movie and seeing all the stereotypes of that era but... in album form. 😂

Haven't listened to it with that mindset, I'll do that later then. I always find that mu-ziqs music has a lot of cheese but it doesn't always sound intentional.
