fumi Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Proper banger, this one. 'Physics’ now drills deep into Demdike's memory banks and record collection for a ravenous reflux of the OG style, benefitting from razor-sharp edits and judicious FX to present the style (almost) as you would have got it in a cavernous warehouse surrounded by thousands of spring-heeled gurners. The mix shells pure stacks of badness, toggling the pressure gauge between toe-tip steppers, soulboy glyde and ballistic bruk outs with darkside switch-ups that leave nobody still on the ‘floor. While 30 years removed from that pivotal time, ‘Physics’ perfectly captures the frenetic energy of hardcore jungle for those who know, and those who’re about to find out, distilling its compound symbiosis of technological innovation and narcotic nuttiness at its most deadly effective, playful and game-changing best. https://boomkat.com/products/physics-85064cba-8372-4a57-a1fc-9c09c3f8892f 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WurstPLUS Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Cassette? And most outdated lossy format, namely mp3? Only on Boomkat? d-a-fuuuq? Edited July 29, 2022 by WurstPLUS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

species8472 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 if you shoot boomkat a message they will hook you up with wavs - but either way you still gotta buy the tape. would love to just buy the digis myself too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WurstPLUS Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Personally I am the arch enemy of flawed technology, especially the one which I used in my childhood and which we dreamt of overcoming. Dream came true. Music even transferred through the air, we didn't even dream that. And today they sell cassettes and vinyl, serving hipster wet dreams of exclusivity. They aren't exclusive. Just human beings who shit and die. Nah, I'm all for the Bandcamp model. Publish 24b/96k audio even, if possible. You can hate me now. Yours, Wurst of Love 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
species8472 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 don't hate you. but i also don't hate tapes/vinyl. do agree that the hi-res audio files and a good dac is the way forward though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxien Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 what are y'all on about here? from the description this sounds like it's one of their mixtapes. cassette and/or mp3 is perfectly fitting for the content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
species8472 Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 i think the only real complaint here is you can’t even buy the digis without buying the physical media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demdike/Boomkat want it to get around like that. begging to pay them for something they're roundabout telling us to go download for free (remember everyone, this is just a fuckin' mixtape) is pretty silly.

It's definitely not "just a mixtape" but a well crafted collage of samples from that era, and the dudes apply their ample subterreanean dubchamber chops to it wonderfully (end of Side A is str8 ). Reminds me a lot of that HATE mix thing they did a couple of years back, which was also a tape only affair (IIRC I ripped it in 128kbps glory off of soundclown). Love DDS (Wonderland was a lowkey insta-classic), but the whole boomkat ecosystem is a weird hot mess I want no part of.
