2 x CD? Is that tracklist long enough to warrant that? Or is there some other goodies!

lololol sick

hahahahaha

[caze]

lol

 

 

it is short for a double cd, weird.

[Goiter Sanchez]

My thoughts are WOOOOOOOOT

 

 

 

"YOU'RE THE FUCKIN DADDDDDYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!"

 

 

 

"YOU'RE MY BIOLOGICAL FATHER!"

[pizza]

Kinda wish there was another track for the first single, like Don't Go Plastic or E8 Boogie as they sound fucking awesome live. Still tight af this version of Reedham tho.

[petina]

ooh, sounds radical. saw iambic 5 poetry in the track list and almost shit myself thinking it was iambic 9 poetry, oh well

[Richie Sombrero]

Hope he gets this out of his system so he can make some more sweet Damogen jam.

[caze]

sound quality is a lot better than his last two live albums, though he probably should've edited out the bum note at the start of Journey to Reedham.

[Ifeelspace]

Very excited for this.  Journey to Reedham sounds great.  Nice of him to release it on my birthday too - cheers Tom ;)

Yeah comes to 64 mins 50 seconds in total. Maybe just a copy/paste mistake from the 2xLP ?

The second CD is electronic versions of the bands versions of squarepusher's classics source

Lol, feels a little teenage band for me. But it's the fucking daddy, what can i say

[chronical]

Oh nice, new old songs but now they're not as squarepushery as before. Not my thing at all but I hope he gets some moneys from this so he can go dwell in his jenkinson braindance cave again 

[Bechuga]

Will definitely get this. Subtitle should've been Ultravisitor pt. II

[Boxus]

Yeah Reedham is sounding a little too close to the original. Kinda wishing he had gone with a more guitar-heavy version or even used horns for the synth lead to really make this feel like a new take. I dig the drums though. Interested to hear the rest of it!

 

I still want an Autechre live instruments cover album and a sludge metal cover of Yulquen. Weird I know but next time you listen to Yulquen just picture it.. could be great

[pizza]

[apriorion]

I'm kinda turned off by these visual gimmicks, to be honest. There's another band that came through here recently that had a similar schtick: 

 

 

I don't mean to disparage people who enjoy that (I like my share of gimmicks, too), but I'm only speaking for my subjective feelings on this matter. 

 

This has inspired me to revisit classic squarepusher tunes, though, so there's that. 

[pizza]

Holy shit that's terrible

[Hugh Mughnus]

my favorite thing is how you don't have to see any of that when you're listening to the lp at home. lol

lol I actually started on a post-rock cover of Yulquen many years ago (and Nil as well!). Actually most of Amber would sound great played by a post-rock/post-metal band.

 

I still would like to hear a djent band covering Iera.. that bassline at the beginning just sounds like a fkn Meshuggah riff.
