ganus Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Aw man... Planet Mu? That means either Mike has updated his artist signing criteria again, or this Machine Drum album is not going to be going in the direction I hoped he would go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means either Mike has updated his artist signing criteria again, or this Machine Drum album is not going to be going in the direction I hoped he would go. What direction are you hoping he'll go in? I think it's steadily been changing since his early days but it'll remain hiphop-centric. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPR3-cYHHn8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's steadily been changing since his early days but it'll remain hiphop-centric. edit: unless it's more like the stuff he's done under his other monikers (Syndrone/Tstewart), which it could well be Well, it just makes me nervous, because Mu has been releasing almost exclusively footwork and dubstep recently, and I just have a feeling that this album is going to be like Want To 1 2 with grime in it. I want him to keep being experimental, and heavily hip-hop oriented, and who knows, I might be pleasantly surprised ultimately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 the last thing i heard from his was extremely wonky-ish and not really in an original way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I only have Urban Biology and Half The Battle but I have listened to those albums a shit ton. I was looking to get some more original Machine Drum but mostly all I've seen online is his remixes of mainstream rap etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Coalbucket PI Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I investigated him a few years ago and decided he was boring, what stuff should I listen to? I remember a track called Stevie Bam Jackson that had an amazing cover by Landau Orchestra and also a Kettel remix which both seemed to blow the original out of the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acidphakist Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I'd be interested in anything he's done that isn't hip hop, rap or downtempo. Can you direct me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Syndrone is pretty good, very confield or phonecia brownout-ish. I would not recommend Urban Biology to someone who hasn't heard machinedrum, i think it's probably one of his weakest works of what i've heard. I like his later stuff that isn't so stutter/edit heavy. Although on Syndrone i think a lot of that stuff is done very well almost psychedelic. the whole technique of just throwing glitchy fills on a too clean almost sterile breakbeat sound with not much meat on it never really appealed to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacred Frequency EP clips I read the description before I actually listened to the tracks, and I was facepalming, but the samples actually sound pretty damn good. Although I have to say, I will be skipping Flycatcha sometimes when I listen to this EP probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 first track on that sounds great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganus Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 first track on that sounds great Absolutely. Sounds like a Hudmo + Rustie + Lone collaboration more than it sounds like him lol. Not that that's a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 i would love to see Machinedrum merge the Syndrone and this style together. I feel too often artists who under so many different compartmentalized monikers play it too safely. ok cunts lets have some syndrone juke! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 not I, i could probably look it up but ill let you tell me what it is edit: just checked some of it out, sounds like a much more dancefloor friendly Burial inspired wood blocky garage thing, is this him or something? not really feeling it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
