I am surprised by the positive reception this got here. Personally I can't really get into the thing. It sounds so samey and a little pretentious

It's fucking rubbish

Future Brown was the 'Warp is shit now' meme from about 10 years ago, disposable party/club music that made virtually no impression on anyone. Can't understand how that project was so bad considering how ace Fatima Al-Qadiri is on her own.

Nice to see them all getting a good airing in this thread now Evian Christ has joined the pantheon.

if you don't want to keep it that way you can taint your ears with this: https://youtu.be/hCRmPDnPg7Q?si=-NuexU1bcXYmx07F

(not embedded so as to not poison the immaculate recording album REVANCHIST of the  W.A.R.P. artist "Evian Christ"

This is insane 

[cern]

I think is just a stunt by Warp.. they clearly want 2 different fan groups: 

1. The old timer who likes Speedy J/The Black Dog reissues and/or normal Warp releases by the olden golden artists like Aphex and Autechre. 
2. The lost souls who just say yes to everything even if there is shit to eat. Now they can call the other fan group old and yell stuff like "Things change" 

Why don't Warp just get artists that is the typical Warp Records artist? Arca maybe? Burial?

I've been listening to trance as a guilty pleasure for the past five years or so. I think it's an undervalued genre, with tremendous capital in some tracks. It's so validating and refreshing to see it "burialized" in the hands of a competent artist.

still haven't listened to this

edit: listening to future brown now

Good news is if you actually like it, you can pick up the vinyl for about 3 quid.

Bad news is the sea level is due to rise when Warp dump all the unsold copies into the ocean.

Yeah that would have been the better strategy for sure. Warp seems really desperate, their golden days are definitely over.

Christ, this is total poo music, it even makes my Evian water taste bad!

My fun take is that I kind of hated Trance music (with exceptions) when it was a relevant thing, but I have really loved things that are Trance homages in the last few years. There's this roundedness to the production that couldn't have existed as easily with the tools 20-whatever-years-ago when Trance was everywhere.
