Guest Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Any love for "Song: Our underwater torch" from the Maximum Priest EP? I admire it! Even though not on the obvious drums route, it's gorgeous. Love the organ melody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though not on the obvious drums route, it's gorgeous. Love the organ melody. i once took e in my younger years (back when i thought that was the only way to achieve those feelings) and bought Maximum Priest EP. Then i proceeded to listened to it for 3 days straight. Song: Our Underwater Torch's light shining in through my heart and onto my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My idea about the song are not about light, but rather about sadness and loneliness: If my house burns down and I lose wife and kids and the whole world, if I'm the only human left on earth, it'll be a good idea to stay in a dark pub at the bar, drinking korn schnapps and listening to this song :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impakt Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 It is the my favorite squarepusher track by far, perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impakt Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 It bothers me that there's no real version of it on youtube that I can listen to from my office. There's one video with it in it, but it's littered with samples and monologues from politicians I don't like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnar Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 i wish he'd do a full on dub album. he's always been heavily influenced by dub and jazz. the perfect mixture of the two is iambic 5 poetry. love the king tubby-ish drums in underwater torch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR4 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 this was the first squarepusher release i ever purchased, and initially I hated everything save for the Luke Vibert remix....came back to it like 4 years later, this along with Mindphone EP are my favorite Squarepusher releases....there's a lot of variety, and it stays nicely in the middle of his abilities, balancing sicky sweet melodies with jazzy drum programming.

Guest Wall Bird Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Definitely amazing. Highly underrated, if you ask me. Glad to hear there's love for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR4 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 and if i remember correctly, the inside of the album credits the still images from some weird movie....is it a real movie or a home made one tom and the gents did? never figured that one out.

Guest maantecaaa!!! Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 yes! i hated the slower feel of this album after all of his drilly stuff but...damn, i've had this song in my head for hours when having some insomnia. it's so much more memorable than the other songs on the album.
