Boxus Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 My attitude toward Stott is general apathy punctuated by interest in occasional standout tracks. This album is on my download-someday list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perezvon Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Jumping on the "his not on my auto order list anymore" bandwagon. I saw him last year at the Tinnitus show at the wick with Prurient and he went from being one of my favorite artists to someone I feel pretty indifferent towards. I feel like his new direction is leaving a lot of his older references of inspiration behind, inspirations that made his music unique and special. Like its still really well produced but it just doesn't have that foreboding omniscience that his early stuff was rich in. huh yeah it's like the mystery's all gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublename Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Selfish kinda reminds of Jam City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokn Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 really like Selfish... and I adore the whole Milie + Andrea LP! I dont like this modern music!*shakes walking stick at clouds* his music sounds like the sonic equivalent of vicious apathy that isn't bad, right?

markedone Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Modern love put all the tracks up on youtube FYI. I just skimmed through it as looking forward to hearing the album in sequence, but I was REALLY liking what im hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokn Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I really love this. More than the one before even? It's like Stott is getting into "digital" territories and tries out to fuse his formulas and sounds with pop music or something. I even like "Butterflies" now. Wow, what is happening?

Kavinsky Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 except of butterflies and the very weird last track I must say its a great record that makes you curious how it unfolds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumplings Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I like Butterflies a lot better after giving the album a listen. It's almost like these belong in the same suit of sounds, so context is everything in terms of listening to the two tracks they released. I think some will be glad to know that there is some classic Stott lineage sewn into this LP, along with what seems like a new sound for him. I like it so far.

WeAreOceans Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Lush, dynamic album. Only stinkers for me are On My Mind (Main melody is way too cheesy) and the title track (Can we stop using choir presets in our "experimental music" please). Forgotten is absolutely beautiful, easily my favourite tune on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malaria Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 the title track (Can we stop using choir presets in our "experimental music" please) I took this as a reference to Hosono's track, "Philharmony," especially after Andy cited YMO as an influence for this album. Here's the track, starts at 30:07: [youtubehd]_6wwtZXGta8?t=30m8s[/youtubehd] Really like this album though; was sold on it after watching the video for "Butterflies" honestly. The audio and video go together so perfectly, IMO. "New Romantic" is amazing as well; love the bell melody timbre paired with the distorted groove. Gets better and better after every listen.

kites Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I haven't enjoyed Stott much the last 5 or so years, and I still can't believe I bought Faith In Strangers without listening to it first. but i'm actually liking this record a lot my first go through...
