This release supposedly comes from Neil Scriven, close friend of fellow nostalgic samplist VHS Head. I'm becoming a big fan of the sound the Blackpool boys are creating. The release date says 2010, but I definitely haven't crossed this before in my travels so maybe it has only been posted recently...

[oscillik]

It's definitely Neil

[Guest Backson]

you would know, Mr friends-with-them-all-on-soundcloud....

[chassis]

[sweepstakes]

[sweepstakes]

i think its newly available for download, it was only on soundcloud but not downloadable. btw scrivins material is great as well. he has two LPs and an EP available for free on rackandruinrecords. its good stuff. especially the track natrual power. i would love to see the material on soundcloud for phono ghosts released, and maybe even some new stuff.

He used to hang out on em411 under a couple different names. Back when there was an official Mixit, his entries blew my mind. He was the best at them of anyone I've ever heard, no contest.

[Guest White Mask]

His Mixit's were indeed awesome, would be nice if something like that were to resurface again.

There are edits in these tracks that sound identical to moments in trademark ribbons of gold. I was always (maybe?) convinced whoever was involved with meat bingo was involved with trog.

with the tempos Meatbingo's playing with I'm assuming you are drawing the comparison with The Murder Cycles / Fronco Zoom to Nowhere?

This release has been up on his soundcloud for a long time... I recently asked Meatbingo if he could make it available in higher quality, which is the reason why it appeared on Bandcamp. Glad to see that other people discovered it, and are hopefully throwing some money his way; maybe it'll motivate him to release more.

I haven't participated in quite a while, though.

[Guest viscosity]

glad this got a better quality release, had ripped it a while ago to listen on the go, but this is much better. had no idea this was Neil Scrivin either. his other stuff is some proper BoC-throwback and this is very reminiscent of vhs head with its choppiness

[kinski]

this is really great! can't wait to listen to his other projects.

[Guest Gravity]

These tracks are amazing. All those chopped vocals...

[Guest Backson]

I'm buying this.

 

Which is no small gesture, I fucking hate paying for files. You are worth it Neil.

[oscillik]

I fucking hate paying for files.

 

lol why?

[Guest mrgypsum]

for other scrivin greatness, i usually listen to this one at least once a day.

i wont pay for mp3 or other lossless, but i will pay for wavs or flacs.

[Guest Backson]

I think its best not to get into a discussion of this sort when we can talk about what excellent tunes these are.

 

edit: that sounds standoffish. what I meant to imply is that I love physical (CDs, 12") and try to get all my music that way.

Duh. Most people round here only wanna pay for vinyl. But when something is digital only (Anodyne and Mrs Jynx, lately), Im happy to support the artist. Lord knows they deserve it.

[Guest sirch]

just skated in to say...

 

1. didn;t find it that interesting or enjoyable.

2. "chopped", as somebody said, stuff like this has become old way much faster than it should. ie. i don't like it much anymore.

3. if you like it pay for the fucking files! people like Backson make me sick as a ferret.

i've been known to be partial to digital vinyls from time to time

[xyrofen]

I thought it was pretty good. I understand not wanting to buy something when there's nothing tangible to be had from the purchase.
