2562 - Fever

[eh Speedy]

No need to get a blue 10" tho right?....Both tracks are on the album, no?

[BobDobalina]

Fucking floored me on the first listen - quite a departure from Unbalance but hot damn

[autopilot]

Holy fuck yes!

 

Snagged this from Digital-Tunes...it's already the 4th where that site's hosted. ;)

 

So good.

i have to admit i was thrown off by the opening track, the stutter was so cheesily done and the title referencing winamp gave me a far different idea of this album. Luckily after track 1 it starts to shape up into something really great

[chenGOD]

fuck me, brasil deadwalker is a MONSTER

 

 

I've only heard the preview clips but goddamn when that kicks in does it ever fucking kick in!

The only thing missing in the opener is a sample saying "V...H...S..."

quality record

it would be interesting to see a DJ try to mix some of the more difficult tracks on actual turntables, i don't think i've heard any music that even hovers in the 2step territory that's this rhythmically hard to follow, and for that alone it's pretty nice!

I had a lot of trouble mixing the tracks off Unbalance. Not neccessarily because it was out of phase or hard to tell where the 1 was, but because the shuffle parameter is set so high that the rhythm really clashes with just about anything else I have in my collection. It sounds like it would be the same with this one so I'm not even going to bother.

 

His singles and work as A Made Up Sound are infinitely more DJ friendly than the 2562 full lengths.

[Guest Mathew Augustus]

fun!

[autopilot]

It's really interesting how, despite the source material of the samples being unique, this album has an undeniable 2562 sound. I'll bet he could do a release entirely sampling polka and it would still sound like 2562.

[awepittance]

yes, this. and i feel he is one of the most consistently compelling newer electronic musicians working today.

[tokn]

Really amazing stuff... was getting into A Made Up Sound more these days and found this album and it's so huge!

[Guest Coalbucket PI]

What I read about this before hearing it didn't inform me about it at all, it was a very nice surprise that it sounds so much like his style but with a new twist

[autopilot]

The beat in Flavour Park Jam is just immense. Takes 4 minutes for the hihats to drop, until then you've got an awkward, cautious, jerky headnod going on.

[Guest nene multiple assgasms]

I've yet to hear this album, but this thread made me dig out his two previous albums, and I've been jammin' out to unbalance. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed it when it came out. this guy is like the king of syncopation.

[kaini]

i love this and i love the dubbiness of aerial. totally different beasts tho

[Guest IDMDGAF]

This is a great release, really enjoying it

[kirm]

This is wicked! Love the fact he made a dubstep album out of disco samples and it sounds nothing really like disco or dubstep! Think this might be his best album yet which is saying something as his other stuff is amazing as well.

[Guest Synthacat 9]

Indeed, 2562 has always impressed me. Solid

[chassis]

Listened to this 3 times today.

 

Its fucking awesome, dunno why I didnt get it sooner.

This makes little to no sense....so much as it's retreating into negative sense.

[kirm]

The album is made entirely from Disco Samples. It is categorised as being a "dubstep" album. But to me it sounds nothing like Disco or dubstep!

 

But yeah maybe am just being nonsensical, Either way it’s a great album!!

[Soloman Tump]

It is great.

 

It is disco, meant to be dubstep, but it is neither. IDM.

[splesh]

Love this album and cannot wait to buy my own copy.
