[Rubin Farr]

Nicolas Jaar's new album, chilled stuff.

Yes, it's really good. Only listened through it once, but it sounds solid!

[b born droid]

Yeah it's good stuff alright.

I've been really struck by how unique it sounds. It's hardly groundbreaking or amazing technically or musically but i terms of style it's really hard to pin down. It's almost like krautrock or kosmische style songs recorded with hi-fi digital equipment of say a group like Kruder & Dorfmeister. It's not quite deep house or dub techno either.

 

Honestly, I find this more engaging personally than Nicolas Jaar's well-received Space is Only Noise. I hope they put out more music.

This is bleeping heavily on my radar.

 

I heard the opening 11 minute track the otherday and was impressed.

[Guest Jimmy McMessageboard]

this is lovely.

[zero]

excellent album...some of the tracks have a "lynchian" vibe to them

[beerwolf]

I gotta bump this because it's a great, great listen. Very cool album and a bit different to the usual run-of-the-mill stuff.

This sounds like Sunset Rubdown to me and I love it.

[Soloman Tump]

It is indeed rather great, surprised there is not more watmm love.

[jules]

it is a wacky combo of styles but works like a champ.

Listen to "Heart" on this album -- I think the whole thing shows Spencer Krug influence, but that track especially...

i guess i can kind of see that.

 

 

this album is blowing me away.

[beerwolf]

Yes, its (still) a very good album. A lot of time I am guilty of over reacting on first listens, but this still holds its own. It's got a unique vibe to it. My record collection is pretty diverse but I don't have anything that sounds quite like this. It's pretty cool imo.

[Rubin Farr]

They're playing here same night as Skinny Puppy. 10 yrs ago I'd be undecided but a bunch of 50 yr old goths on stage is just sad.

[Kooch]

Bought it yesterday. Hated it on first few listens but it finallly grew on me.

New live album from theses guys. Solid.
