I pretty much ignored Railroad Blues (need to catch up sometime) but with this announcement he's got my attention again. Can't find any audio yet though.

Oh, excellent. Love Colonial Patterns, been eagerly awaiting his follow-up for ages. Interestingly he originally said his second would come out on Software as well but this seems to be on Proibito.

 

More interestingly this looks to be a beatless ambient album rather than a housey one.

[Salvatorin]

my boi huerco s. back in the house!

see see rider from railroad blues in really good

[Guest bitroast]

hells yaeh. keen to grab this fsure.

 

[viscosity]

Glad to see this. I was lucky enough to catch him with Actress a year or so back. Some forward thinking sounds coming from this guy. mesmerizing

[markedone]

Imminent lush.

 

Ive been trying to cop his excellent Royal Crown of Sweden reissue but have never seen it at any record shop in nyc.. in general Proibito 12s are hard to track down here. Probably because theyre pressed/distro in europe like many north america based labels seem to be now?

[kites]

prices for that record and his other stuff haven't been too bad on discogs, but in person i have yet to see his stuff anywhere but Amoeba around here...

[manmower]

Really appreciate both his productions and sets but I think he's a bit overrated or rather overhyped anyway. So I don't really bother jumping on releases as they become available and can't be arsed to hunt down sold out stuff. I think I have Colonial Patterns, A Verdigris Reader and the second R.C.O.S. (Regalier?) and that's it.

 

Good for him that his stuff sells out and isn't piling up in record stores I guess.

[Salvatorin]

for me there's an artistic confidence and aesthetic maturity about his music that I think warrants the praise. He has a particular sonic vision that seems to permeate throughout all of his work and yet it feels really open to interpretation, which I think is one of the main reasons I love it so much. It isn't really immediate music—it's very relaxed and has a certain ambivalence to it that lets you approach it at your leisure.

'On The Embankment', is the first thing tagged by mixcloud in his NTS mix. Hard to tell where his opening field recording ends and track begins tho. But the rest of the mix has been excellent

[Jur]

Very excited

[patternoverlap]

Greatly looking forward to this.

[patternoverlap]

Up now on Bandcamp

Sea of Love is ∞ lush

[markedone]

This album settles deep into the subconscious. I've on multiple occasions found melodies spinning in my head that I couldnt place (or didn't even realize were from this album) and only connected the dots later.

 

That spiraling synth on marked for life in particular, I wasn't sure if I was just inventing a melody or remembering a dream or was from an older album or what

[rddm]

Super lush. Had it on repeat all last week.

[joshuatxuk]

fucking hell this is good, one of those albums were you're already considering it one of the best albums you've heard in awhile before you even get halfway through the release

 

reminds me a lot of gas and to a lesser extent 1991 (albeit a lot more fleshed out and hi-fi than 1991's stuff)

[purlieu]

Impatiently waiting for either Juno or Boomkat to get this in stock.

Completely agree! More people need to be going for the Gas vibe, it's sublime.

 

This record is so effortless in its excellence.

Picked this one up a couple of days ago and it's a beauty. Still surprised by how low-key it is in the beats department. Was expecting something like ambient techno because of the Gas comparison but most of it's just ambient period.

[dr lopez]

Welllll I reckon I'll

Be givin this a good long

Educated listen

[lamourfou]

So impressed and inspired by this release while simultaneously wishing it had beats. It is so good that I don't mind. Beautiful.

[Salvatorin]

hm. as a big fan I am surprised to find some of this to be a bit annoying.

[Salvatorin]

other parts are wonderful

[purlieu]

Really enjoying this, although I find constantly flipping sides a pain in the arse so I'm listening on mp3 more than the vinyl. But gorgeous stuff.
